Illustration projects
I have created a wide range of illustration projects over the years from wedding invitations to ceramics and even sports cars and buildings. I particularily love designing bespoke wedding stationary. Its an honour to work along side a couple to set the tone of their wedding day. Ideas for the wedding stationary are sparked by considering the type of flowers chosen, the venue and the couple’s personality.
Bespoke invitations & stationary for a wedding in Florence
A beautiful Tuscan wedding in the hills, over looking Florence. This was a wedding full of warmth, romance and beauty. I layered the colourful flowers around the invite like little jewels peeking through the long grasses amoungst the olive trees.

Fine bone china collection for
Whittard of Chelsea
This collection was designed to echo the look of traditional English blue on white fine bone china but with a slightly modern day feel.
My first selection of painted sketches at the beginning of the project to discuss direction with the merchandising team.

Painting a family home
A commission to paint the front of a beautiful and loved Georgian family home. I wanted to capture the stunning display of boston ivy as it started to turn into shades of red, orange and yellow in the Autumn months. The welcoming, and grand stained glass door was a central focal point to pull you into the painting.
Painting in progress. Creating first texture of the Boston ivy covering the brick walls around the windows.

Final painting 29.7 x 42 cm on 300 gsm, hot press water colour paper.
