  • Biography
    During the last two years my practice has focused on illustrating, documenting & collating stories of independent venues: the people, places, histories, & their narratives. My illustrations are predominately constructed from cutting up & shaping tiny bits of paper - letting characters and objects evolve from this process. Essentially drawing with scissors - I find this results in more unexpected & intriguing outcomes & compositions. I’m currently a Graduate Teaching Assistant on the Illustration with Animation course at Manchester School of Art. Alongside teaching, I am a resident at ‘Marketplace Studios’, Stockport - where I work as a freelance illustrator.
