About & Contact

Hello! I’m a British/Canadian illustrator based in Belgium. Inspired by folklore, music and history, I create dynamic character-based images and patterns. My printmaking background influences the way I construct my images, and I currently work mostly with hand carved stamps and risograph. I aim for a playful and dynamic simplicity and directness in my work, both in technique and appearance.
I grew up in Germany and studied in London, Berlin and Vancouver, graduating with a Diploma/MA in Fine Art from Kunsthochschule Berlin-Weissensee in 2007. I worked as tutor and technician for many years at Edinburgh Printmakers before moving with my partner césimonis and our risograph machine to the Belgian Ardennes, where I now work as a freelance illustrator.
You can view my full CV here.
I love applying illustration to many forms - from limited edition prints and posters to stationery, tattoos, homeware, murals and surface patterns. If you’re interested in working with me I’d love to hear from you!
