Hello!
My name is Laura and I’m a nature inspired illustrator who loves to experiment, specialising in children’s illustration and stationary design. I like to explore symbolism and meaning in my work through the use of mixed media and hand-rendered typography.
I have graduated in 2016 with a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design and Illustration and as well as freelancing I work at Twinkl Educational Publishing as a graphic designer and illustrator.
Positive, friendly and approachable, outside of illustration I love to make handmade crafts such as cards, jewellery and books. I enjoy playing the violin, reading and photography.
I have illustrated three children’s books:
2014/15 More Granny Rainbow by Katherine Hetzel
2013/14 Granny Rainbow by Katherine Hetzel
2011 Metal Molly by Ariadne Tampion
Qualifications
2013 -2016: De Montfort University BA Hons Graphic Design and Illustration
2012-2013: De Montfort University Distinction in BTEC Diploma Foundation in Art and Design
You can now purchase my illustrations on all kinds of items:
