About me

I am a freelance illustrator and an artist based in London with experience in painting, drawing and collage with particular focus on making experimental art books that blend storytelling with design and illustration. I aim to bring an innovative perspective to collaborative and independent projects, often finding inspiration from history and nature, as well as everyday surroundings. Photography is also an important part of my creative process, as it helps me research, brainstorm and visualise my ideas before illustrating. I am interested in the publishing and print industry of illustration, as well as the editorial industry, because I would like to work with writers to visualise their stories and narratives.
