Cambridge-Based Painter & Illustrator

About
I’m a Cambridge-based artist focused on pen and watercolour illustrations of my hometown. Born and bred, I love capturing the quirks, charm and occasional chaos of Cambridge.
I have a BA in Theatre Design and spend the weekdays painting sets for plays as a scenic artist, so I’m used to turning ideas into visuals and making things look good from a distance (and close up, too).
I’ve been drawing since I was little and began to spend my free time illustrating around the city. I began painting a series
of the bridges and went on to create a collection of paintings that capture the charm of the town and now my passion has become my job! I have been selling my cards and prints of Cambridge at the All Saints Craft Market since 2022 and have also worked on murals and art projects around the city - celebrating Cambridge in all its characterful glory.
As an illustrator, I find inspiration in the beauty of nature, people, community and the vibrant and unique quirks of the city. My goal is to re-create joyful, recognisable experiences or memories through art. Feel free to explore the collection and find the perfect piece to add a touch of whimsy and charm to your surroundings.
Every design begins as an original hand-drawn painting before becoming a high-quality art print. Feel free to explore the collection and find the perfect piece available as prints and cards, so whether you’re a local, student or visiting the city, if a particular scene makes you smile, you can take a little piece of Cambridge home with you (without needing to fit King’s Parade in your bag).
