I am an illustrative artist based in the beautiful county of Suffolk. Inspired by living and working in the country and the variety of natural beauty we are surrounded by.
My style when working in graphite, is very natural, reflecting the realistic quality, form and movement of the animal. I enjoy creating a sense of character with each of my illustrations, finishing each one off with a name to suit! My floral & field abstract paintings depict layers of stunning summer flowers and grasses. Created with copious layers of acrylic paint. I have created a homeware range that features some of my most popular studies.
I graduated from London College of Fashion with a degree in prosthetics, wig making and makeup for TV and theatre. After working freelance on numerous exciting projects including making wigs for the London musical, The Lion King. I chose to complete a PGCE in secondary school Art teaching. I was an Art, Photography and Textiles teacher for 6 years, until which time I left the profession and became a full time Mum to Ellsa who is now 11 and Louis 9.
As we move through 2024 I have begun moving away from my nearly 10 years of producing a homeware range and am taking things a little bit closer back to where it started. Focussing again on my original paint and pencil work.
I hope you enjoy it all,
Laura x
