I’m Kitty Glavin, a London-based visual designer and illustrator who loves bringing ideas to life through hand-drawn and digital imagery. I create playful, informative visuals for brands, publishers and galleries, blending traditional illustration with modern design and animation.
My work ranges from editorial illustration and book design to animation, paper engineering and set styling for fashion campaigns. I enjoy collaborating across disciplines to tell engaging stories that resonate with both kids and grown-ups.
