Illustrating at Chanel Beauty

Earlier in 2019 I was invited to the Chanel Beauty boutiques in both Covent Garden and at St Pancras Station, London. Here I illustrated for customers to celebrate the launch of the new Rouge Coco Flash range, gorgeous bold lipsticks, which were also paired with Chanel sunglasses in store. Lots of busy customers who popped in for that pre Eurostar purchase left with their very own fashion portrait, an unexpected treat!

Here are some pictures I took during my time at Chanel Beauty, I was there over four days in March. The time always flies so I’m so glad I was able to take plenty of photos to show you guys what I got up to.

Top Santé: The Beauty of Bathing

For the January 2019 issue of women’s health and lifestyle magazine, Top Santé, I was asked to create some illustrations for a feature on the beauty of bathing. A subject I can definitely get behind as I love nothing more than a nice relaxing bath, especially during winter! The article featured products and remedies from various countries, such as Japan, France and Turkey. I represented each of these within certain elements of the main image. The tiles are inspired by those seen inside Turkish bath houses, the bamboo is a nod to Japan, and of course I have drawn a beautiful french style, roll top bath. With gold taps and ornate legs, this is pretty much my ideal bath! Overall I have tried to create a sense of luxuriousness, femininity, calm and beauty within the illustrations.

Christmas and the last of 2018

So it’s that time of year again, one of my favourites! Out come the opulent dresses and heels as it’s time to celebrate! 2018 has been a pretty great year for me (although not without it’s downs!) and I’ve see a huge increase in the amount of live illustration bookings coming in. That means that next year my calendar is already filling up and 2019 is set to be a busy one! Although I definitely plan to take more holidays than I have in the past, a girl needs her rest, so here's looking forward to 2019, cheers everybody!

SK-II Concept Store Illustrations

I was asked to illustrate a series of concept store illustrations for beauty brand SK-II in order to breathe life into the ideas behind some of their new pop-up stores and shopping experiences. These illustrations require a lot of attention to detail in order to convey a vibrant shop or retail space.
