<p>I work full time as a cafe manager and set up my illustration business during the first lockdown, whilst on furlough from work. It has always been a dream of mine, and I finally had the spare time to just do it! I've been drawing since I can remember, and doodled through all of my school exercise books (later ruined by the teacher's red biro!) I went on to graduate from Portsmouth Uni with a degree in illustration, which is where I really found my drawing style. I absolutely love drawing food, as you can tell from my card designs, so I get a lot of inspiration from where I work. I also enjoy menu design and have been lucky enough to be able to design all of the cafe menus and chalkboards during my time working there. It's great to have a job I can mix my passion with!</p>
