trained as an actress at The Central School of Speech and Drama, and what I loved about that time most wasn't being in front of an audience, but the visual and storytelling aspects of theatre. I've long since left the stage , but have taken those elements of theatre into my style of storytelling and illustration. I love to begin with a traditional line, but experiment, mixing things up with digital colour and texture.
I studied book illustration with Carolyn Dinan at both Putney Arts & Chelsea college of Art, and completed a writing for children course, with Mimi Thebo.
I have published a picture book, Cloth Monkey and am currently working on more picture books and a middle grade illustrated fiction project.
My favourite things to draw are people, and animals.
If you'd like to work with me, please get in touch.
