Design with purpose, illustration with heart.

My creative work spans from strategic, professional design to spontaneous, expressive art. I specialise in: Branding and visual identity, Packaging and corporate design, Hand-drawn illustrations (pen, ink, and watercolour), Live event sketching (sports, concerts, festivals), Pattern and surface design.

Whether I’m designing for businesses or drawing from life, my work is always grounded in storytelling and detail.

BRANDING &
CORPORATE DESIGN

I work with businesses of all sizes to create thoughtful, visually engaging branding that tells a story. Whether it’s a full brand identity or one-off design assets, I focus on building cohesive, purpose-driven visuals that reflect your values and connect with your audience. From logos and colour palettes to print materials and packaging,
I bring a creative, considered approach to every project.

ILLUSTRATIONS & COMMISSIONS

My illustration work is based in storytelling, texture, and emotion. I offer custom commissions for individuals, publications, and brands — from editorial pieces and packaging artwork to personal gifts and bespoke prints. I create animal portraits as well as sporting illustrations, capturing movement, personality, and detail in every piece. Working in a blend of traditional and digital media, I bring each illustration to life with a distinctive, handcrafted feel.

WEDDING & EVENTS STATIONERY

I design event stationery that captures the mood and personality of your occasion — whether it’s a wedding, milestone celebration, or special gathering. From invitations and menus to place cards and signage, I blend beautiful design with tactile materials to create cohesive pieces that leave a lasting impression. Custom illustration and hand-finished details add a personal touch to each set.

My Creative Focus
I explore the connection between organic forms and emotional landscapes, using colour-rich illustrations to express that relationship. Working mainly with dip pen, ink, and watercolour, my style is spontaneous and full of energy. Inspired by nature, architecture, and urban scenes, I blend hand-drawn elements with digital techniques to create textured, meaningful designs — from corporate work to creative projects.

What Inspires Me

People, places, and the beauty in the everyday.
I find inspiration everywhere: in the rhythm of a live event, the character of a city street, or the quiet discovery of something new in the garden. Travel, movement, and daily life fuel my creativity — often leading to the unexpected in my sketchbooks and designs.

Creativity, collaboration, and storytelling.


I create to connect, inspire, and tell stories through design and illustration. Collaboration is at the heart of my process — I believe the best ideas emerge through shared creativity. Whether through animation, interactive books, or tactile materials, my goal is to craft meaningful experiences that spark curiosity, invite exploration, and leave a lasting impression.
