Lucy Mae Illustrates

Operate specialist print equipment including risograph, screen print press, and laser cutter — deepening hands-on knowledge of print production processes. Lead creative workshops and support students across painting, printmaking, ceramics, and mixed-media. Manage studio materials, budgets, and organisation alongside active creative work.

Delivered visual merchandising for premium lifestyle brands including Lacoste, Calvin Klein, and Tommy Hilfiger — developing a commercial understanding of how design and aesthetics drive consumer appeal.

Take on a wide range of commissioned projects including murals and illustrated prints. Design and sell original sticker collections, illustrated postcards, seasonal prints, and paper goods through my online shop and at craft markets. Manage all stages of the creative process independently: client briefs, concept development, artwork production, print-ready file preparation, and delivery. Build and maintain an engaged audience through social media and online sales, handling all marketing and brand communications. Developed a recognisable illustration style with botanicals, seasonal colour palettes, and storytelling imagery.
