Available to hire
I am a digital illustrator with a strong background in traditional hand-drawn animation. Since 2012 I have been a remote freelance children’s book illustrator, represented by Beehive Illustration, illustrating titles for Ladybird, HarperCollins, Scholastic, Hungry Tomato, and Maverick Books.
My experience spans production roles in animation and illustration, from assistant animator at Lupus Films in London to layout artist for Charmin campaigns, storyboarding and character/background design for various projects. I enjoy collaborating on playful, accessible art for young audiences and bringing stories to life through picture-making.
