Officially out there ✨ recently I illustrated various character scenes for @helenbamberfoundation and @asylumaid 2025 annual reports, including these illustrations for the front covers. They’ve now been published and are out in the world 🤍 so proud these illustrations get to help tell the story of the vital work they do. Reports linked below 👇

Thought I’d share the process behind my most recent piece with @elyworkcollective 🪴

I haven’t actually shared the stages I go through when I work before, usually because it’s such deep work that I get totally lost in it and forget to take photos! Plus I often go back and forth between stages, so it’s not always a straightforward process 😂 but a few of you including @elyworkcollective themselves said they’d love to see the journey in how I get to my finished pieces - so I thought I’d share for those who are interested! ✨

Enjoy!! 🪴🍃💙

Say hello to the newest addition to @elyworkcollective’s boardroom wall 🪴💙
I joined this wonderful coworking space a few months ago, and recently had the honour of illustrating this botanical print for them. They were keen to have a large print featuring their favourite (and very cool!) office plants in their royal blue branding colour, so I created this fun piece for them! 🪴 I was totally in my element with this one, plants are by far one of my favourite things to draw because of the amazing shapes! 😍

We’ve just revealed the beautiful new artwork that the very talented local illustrator @berry.illustrates has been working on for us.

As many of you will know, supporting local businesses is very close to our hearts and part of everything we do here at Ely Work Collective. Our artwork is no different! We wanted to add to our amazing collection from @emily_palmer_illustration with something inspired by the plants in the office. If you’ve visited us before, you know the plants are very much part of the experience at Ely Work Collective, so we felt they deserved their own artwork!

Berry, took our very loose brief 😬 and ran with it! She managed to create a piece that’s exactly how we pictured it, no mean feat! So thank you so much to the incredibly talented @berry.illustrates!

A new chapter starts in the gorgeous little city of Ely 🏰🌿📚 currently having so much fun discovering its wonders! Medieval architecture around every corner, witchy vibes, a river, bookshops and markets to my heart’s content, and a creative and wellbeing scene I can’t wait to explore more of 😍

First illustration for @helenbamberfoundation completed 🌿

Recently I’ve been working with the Helen Bamber Foundation to create character-focused illustrations that bring meaningful and powerful emotive scenes to life.

This one shows a supportive moment within a therapy room, focusing on connection, safety, and empowerment. It took a few revisions and rough sketches to fully bring that to life. 🤍

Grateful to be creating such meaningful work and very much enjoying the process.

Lately it’s been me, my pen, and a whole lot of very fun illustrations for another short story for @adenydduk ✍️

Such a joy to be illustrating for this wonderful organisation again! This project has been the kind where you sit down for a bit and suddenly it’s dark outside and you’ve forgotten what day it is (the best kind).

More to share soon 🩵
