While developing my degree show collection at the Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design I discovered that my niche skill within the world of jewellery-making was etching, especially hand-drawn nitric acid etches. Through this method of scraping away lines of black etching fluid I fell in love with pattern drawing and this love has become my ink and paper illustrations. My portfolio of illustrations is inspired by my penchant for the fantastical, the nerdy, and the natural world. I often feature strange creatures within my highly patterned portraiture, and the highly-patterned linework has become my signature style.
