About

Hi, I’m Evie Purcell—an illustrator and graphic designer with a BA (Hons) in Illustration from Sheffield Hallam University. I love creating playful, colourful, character-based artwork, combining careful eye-for-detail with strong visual communication and graphic design fundamentals.

I work across digital and lifestyle illustration, branding, packaging, merchandise, and product design, and I’m especially drawn to storytelling that genuinely connects with people. I enjoy collaborating with clients, digging into their vision, and translating core ideas into original, thoughtful visuals—whether that’s a concept for a campaign, a pitch deck, or content designed to engage an audience.

Submission created for Twine's Vintage Christmas Card illustration freelance opportunity 2026. The brief was to create a bespoke Christmas card in a vintage style inspired by 1950s and 1960s Christmas cards. The artwork needed to feature a romantic couple and a hotel, capturing a traditional, romantic Christmas theme with retro colours and charm. I created an illustration of a couple embracing in the snow outside a decorated hotel, with falling snow, colourful Christmas lights and a traditional Christmas tree. The aim was to create a charming, romantic Christmas scene with a classic festive feel, which I achieved by using real photographic references of a couple in love in the 1950s/60s, alongside a cosy winter cabin hotel setting to base my design around. I also used typography and colours to truly capture the spirit of Christmas, bringing together traditional festive reds and greens with snowy blues to create that nostalgic Christmas feel.
