In August 2020 I graduated from the Illustration BA Hons degree at the University of Worcester, and currently plan to develop my creative career. As well as receiving top grades for a range of creative A-Levels and a Foundation Diploma, I have been a practicing illustrator, designer and photographer since 2014. I am skilled in Adobe Creative Suite and currently specialise in watercolour and drawing with a particular interest in nature and coastal themes. I also enjoy narrative work in addition to pattern and design for greeting cards and other similar products.
