Questions

Is popular culture a big inspiration for some of your work? I love your Britney illustrations, I'm 100% going to order one next pay day.

Your drawings pay so much attention to detail! What type of pens do you use to achieve this?

Who is your proudest piece of design you have created so far and why?

What was it like working for Shura? And how did the collaboration happen?



Inspired work:

Louise has been a big inspiration for my illustration style particularly this year. I have taken inspiration from her line drawings and created my own through digital art. Her drawing method is mostly done through hand drawing. For me I am not that confident with my illustration skills so prefer to draw digitally, often using photographs I have already taken to base my drawings around. Here are a few examples of my work that has been particularly inspired by her.
