Wildlife & nature illustrations

As you might’ve gathered from my Snailspace commission, I really (really!) love the outdoors. From ladybirds to your family cat - I welcome commissions for them all!

Colour and concept

Drawing from nature gives me a great excuse to experiment with colour. Here, I used watercolour before editing the illustration digitally to add an extra dimension.

Snailspace

I’m honoured to be involved in the Martlets’ Snailspace project. There are currently 50 snails on the streets of Brighton - including my design outside The Ivy in the Lanes, Ship Street. Find out more about my snail sculpture here.

Concepts and commissions

I love working on commissions inspired by nature. This butterfly illustration was a research piece for tattoo I designed for a friend. For inspiration, I just have to go out onto the South Downs behind my house.
