Illustration
Hand-crafted images that bring your documents to life.
Expressive, graceful and cheerful illustrations that bring clarity, movement and humour to your stories and ideas.
I work with traditional media (such as ink and watercolours on paper) and with a digital drawing tablet. Regardless of the media I use, every image is a product of human creativity and craftsmanship – no AI involved.
I am particularly interested in working on projects about:
- body positivity
- neurodiversity
- the environment and natural world
- mental health
- communities
- history
- horses
- children and pre-teens

Illustrating values
I created these to illustrate company values in my work and private life.
They represent the following values: encouraging body positivity, celebrating neurodiversity, caring for the environment, nurturing good mental health, fostering strong real life communities and enjoying and protecting the natural world.
Summer holidays for these pre-teens
Three ten-year old friends enjoying an ice-cream, and a worried eight-year old facing his horse on his first day of riding camp.
Thai women in Sweden: high risk of exploitation
These illustrations were done to explain the factors that lead to exploitation, and the organisations that can work together to prevent it.

2. I will contact you to arrange a video meeting. (Some people don’t like talking on the phone – in that case we will keep using email.)
3. We will pinpoint what you need, your deadline and your budget. If my skills are a good match for your needs, we’ll go on to the next step.
4. Creative brief: this is a document that pins down the details of our collaboration. It includes timelines, exactly what will be delivered, limitations and requirements, licensing and a price. Once we agree on the brief, we can get to work! (Complex assignments will need a more formal contract.)
Why not
sign up for my newsletter?
I send it about about once a month. It is the best way to find out about my limited-offer deals and competitions. (Because, as we all know, social media is a fickle friend.)
It’s personal and professional at the same time, peppered with recent work, drawings and sketchbook pages. I always include a few good links to things that are beautiful, thought-provoking or amusing and often give my readers a free image for their private use.
I respect your privacy and will never ever share your information.
