Archaeological Illustration

Gouache paintings and vector illustrations of four endangered Australian birds for Australian Geographic Explorers Magazine.

"Lifeblood" is a mashup illustration created to express my experience during the initial pandemic in 2020. I lost my job, and my sewing machine essentially became my lifeblood. As a lifelong textile designer and maker, I found solace but also much-needed income after losing my job. In this illustration, the anatomical heart symbolises my love of creating, but also the idea of the veins becoming the life-giving thread. The pattern on the piece of fabric is one of my own textile designs. The final illustration was created using Adobe Illustrator from my original pencil sketches.

A recent illustration created in Procreate using a 12.9" 6th Gen iPad. I created this illustration as part of a Domestika course to teach myself how to draw a portrait digitally using brushes in Procreate. I usually create my portraits using physical pencil on paper so this was a great challenge for me to learn a new skill.

Kibou is a character based on a handmade cloth toy I made during the pandemic. As part of a personal project, I am currently developing the character, experimenting with digital and hand-painted versions for a children's book.
