Mother of Dragons

Here is my latest illustration for my Etsy shop, and it's my favourite! I am absolutely obsessed with Game of Thrones, so it was only a matter of time before I had to draw my favourite character. In fact, I'm not sure why it's taken me so long? 

But here she is, Daenerys Targaryen, aka the Mother of dragons, with her you dragon on her shoulder. Each print is finished by hand with gold paint detailing on the dress and metalwork, so each one will be truly unique. Get yours from my Etsy store by clicking HERE

Aspinal of London: Store events 2015

Over the last few months I've been doing some exciting events for Aspinal of London, becoming the in house illustrator for the day, creating watercolour fashion illustrations for the customers. I've been all around their London stores, including; Covent Garden Canary Wharf, Marylebone, Selfridges and their Flagship on Brook Street, and also to their store in Bluewater, Kent. I absolutely love doing these events, drawing all day, meeting wonderful new people, surrounded by beautiful Aspinal products.

In this case, the customer choose their favourite Aspinal product and posed while I sketched them, I then added watercolour and it was done within 5-7 mins. So all of the illustrations you see in this post have been done quickly, in store and in front of the customer.

I've had an incredibly positive response from everybody that I draw, as it adds a lovely element to their shopping experience and gives them something extra to take home with them. I have a few more events in the pipeline, which as ever, I'm very excited for. The events are widely shared on social media, so follow myself and Aspinal of London for updates.

REN Flash Rinse, Annimation

My illustrations got animated! This is soooo exciting and great to see the finished product. I worked with skincare company REN and provided illustrations of the lovely lady you see in the video. 

Give it a watch if  to see my work in motion!

Illustrated map of Paris

A brand new print is now available on my Etsy store, my illustrated map of Paris!

I created the illustration using watercolours and digital methods. All of the text is handwritten with pen and ink.

Nothing beats the romantic feeling Paris evokes, even if you've never been there but have always dreamed of doing so! I'm lucky enough to be heading there this summer, I can not wait! So expect some snaps of my trip in the near future. I'll be staying in Monmartre, my favourite area!

Au revoir! xx

Out and about...

Above are a selection of images from my Instagram account which show some of my recent work that you can find in various magazines.

 I regularly get to create maps for Fabulous magazine, which I love doing, as I get to learn while I illustrate! Researching the different places beforehand to see what they look like and the general vibe that I want to portray is important in order to get the best outcome. 

I also regularly create illustrations for the "How to…" beauty feature in Top Santé, a monthly women's health beauty and wellbeing magazine. Which include a step by step guide to getting the latest beauty looks.

And also, one of my favourites, Sunday Times Stlye magazine's "Can't live without.." feature, for which I illustrate a different beauty product every week.

I have been very busy of late and will be updating EVERYTHING soon with new work, so keep a look out!
