I am a BA (Hons) Illustration student born and raised in Nottingham. I enjoy emphasising strong shapes, compositions and colour schemes to create fantastical imagery inspired by folk art, heraldry, and traditional tattoo. I favour immediacy and ease in my creative workflow and like to focus on communicating feelings and ideas as strongly as possible. My practice is driven by the idea that art belongs to everybody and that improving access to art is paramount to improving society. Particularly intriguing for me is the intersection of art, technology, and democratisation, which I am exploring through my current project, Polyworld. My dream is to work as a mural artist for public institutions, having already produced educational material for the NHS and a local council. I’m excited to expand my practice even further after I graduate.
