About Me
I'm a Textile Designer, Tableware Designer and Illustrator. I'm English but live in beautiful Melbourne, Australia.
As an illustrator I specialise in drawing and painting in watercolours and I'm particularly noted for my watercolour floral interpretations.
I create graphic and textile designs for print and commercial surface pattern studio's, including yardage designs for adults and children's sectors. I also specialise in designing for ceramic tableware with clients including; Wedgwood, Marks & Spencer, The National Trust, Dansk USA, Freedom and Target.
My design skills incorporate hand-drawing and painting, as well as working across graphic platforms with expertise in Photoshop and Illustrator.
I'm always open to new design and illustration commissions or freelance opportunities.
