I collaborate with brands, cultural institutions, and destinations to create illustrations and surface patterns inspired by gardens, landscapes, and travel.
My work is particularly suited to projects that celebrate place, seasonality, and the atmosphere of lived spaces - from gardens and heritage sites to hotels, products, and publications.
Illustration Commissions
Bespoke illustrations for publishing, campaigns, and storytelling projects. Each piece is developed to reflect the character, atmosphere, and narrative of a place or idea.
Surface Pattern Design
Original repeat patterns and motifs designed for textiles, homeware, stationery, and product collections, translating natural forms and observations into decorative design.
Art Licensing
Existing illustrations and patterns available for licensing across products, packaging, and collaborations, offering a ready-made visual language for brands.
Destination & Place Illustration
Artwork created to capture the identity and atmosphere of gardens, hotels, retreats, and travel destinations - expressing the feeling of a place through colour, detail, and composition.
I also offer private commissions for individuals. These pieces are often inspired by meaningful places, such as gardens, homes, landscapes, or a treasured trip. Each commission is developed through conversation, resulting in a piece that feels personal and special to you.
If you have something in mind, please reach out for a chat.

I’m drawn to collaborations that value storytelling, craftsmanship, and a strong sense of place.
We begin with a discussion to understand your project, vision, and timeline.
Initial sketches explore composition, mood, and colour direction.
The final piece is developed using hand-painted techniques and digital tools with attention to detail, atmosphere, and finish.
Do I need a clear idea before getting in touch? Not at all. Many projects begin with a loose idea or a feeling rather than a fully formed brief. I’m happy to help shape the direction through conversation and initial sketches.
What is your process for commissions? Each project begins with a conversation to understand your ideas and requirements. I then develop initial sketches to explore composition and direction, followed by the creation of the final artwork using watercolour, ink, and paint.
What information do you need to get started? It’s helpful to have a brief outlining the project, timeline, intended use of the artwork, and any visual references or ideas. From there, I can guide the creative process.
What are your timelines? Timelines vary depending on the scope of the project. Smaller commissions may take a few weeks, while larger collaborations can take longer. I’ll always confirm timings at the outset.
Can you work from photographs or references? Yes, I can work from photographs, sketches, or a combination of references. For place-based commissions, these help capture the character and details of a location.
Do you work internationally? Yes, I’m happy to work with clients internationally and can arrange shipping for original artwork.
My approach is rooted in observation and storytelling, creating work that feels both timeless and connected to place.
If my work resonates and you have an idea you’d like to explore, I’d love to chat. Please get in touch to talk about projects, commissions, collaborations, or licensing.
