Penguin Design Award  

This piece is a book cover I designed for the fictional children’s book ‘murder most unladylike’. I created this as part of my module for the penguin design awards.

Woolly’s Hunt for a Home   

Woolly’s hunt for a home is a children’s book I created for my final research project. This image is a snippet of the main character woolly trying to catch a fish. This book touches on the themes of adoption and the struggle of a child in the foster system trying to find a home. 

Mother Room Roots

‘Mother Room Roots’ is a mini-comic created from randomised word prompts. The words generated were ‘Mother’, ‘Room’ and ‘Roots’.  

From these prompts I constructed and developed an abstract-gothic inspired narrative; The project involves themes of fear, growth, motherhood and the challenge of breaking cycles. 

STRANGER

STRANGER is a project documenting the lived experience of transgender people. For this project I most specifically focused on their relationships to their ‘deadnames’: the names they were born with but no longer use.  

I aimed to create a work that explores these individual relationships to the concept of names through both the words of transgender people themselves, and a series of magical realism inspired illustrations to represent the adventure, magic and strife of these experiences in an uniquely interpretable way.  

Graphic Short Story Competition 

A four-page comic I created for the Graphic Short Story Competition. It is about a boy who befriends cosmic entities by looking up at the stars. 

Inktober

llustrations I completed for Inktober 2021. The work displayed here was created in the response to the prompt “Hungry”. And boy, is he ever. Is it cannibalism? Is it even ethical? Who knows!  

Picture This

There are a few things as charming and as attractive as spending time outdoors, especially when we are tired, stressed and overwhelmed by the noise and pollution of the city. The story of an image is escaping from town to nature.

Final Research

For my final project my illustrations were mainly based on my memories and stories from my mom and grandmother, when they were growing up whilst my country was occupied by soviets. Queues were a part of everyday life in the Soviet Union

Histober

An Inktober challenge with a historical fashion twist, originally organised by @deadlypsyche on instagram, this project concluded with thirty-one original ink drawings of trends across centuries of fashion. 

Funguary 2022

2002 and 2022 Self-Portraits

It began with a self-portrait in primary school, twenty years later my journey in education ends with another in the degree show. After re-illustrating the first portrait for my dissertation I wanted to show my progression in art. 

The two full-length portraits exhibited visually represent both my physical and creative development over two decades. Take a photo with me using #20yearsdrawingchallenge on social media! 

Definition of Design

This was for my Negotiated Project which involved the exploration of the concept art industry through case studies and practice. This image is the culmination of many outcomes from random prompts.
