Hello

My Story

In the 1990's I moved back to Shropshire from London and decided on a career change from an Interior Designer to a Graphic Designer and Illustrator.

I joined the newly formed Gibson Greetings as a Technical Artist and created the Technical Department where all the finish drawings for the greeting cards were designed.

I then spent the next 12 years at Gibson Greetings progressing from a technical artist to a multi-disciplined greeting cards artist and Mac Operator visualising new designs through to finished pre-press files.

I work in all different mediums including watercolour, acrylic, pen and ink, textiles and my artwork is intricate due to the love for detail gained from many years of drawing architectural drawings.

​

​I worked freelance for many years while juggling family life, mainly for UK Greetings, with an extensive amount of my designs being used in Asda, Sainsburys, Tescos, Clinton Cards and independents shops.

​

The highlight of my greeting card career was when the Laser Diecut Range for Nigel Quiney Publications won the 'Best Spring Range' at the Progressive Greetings 'Henries' Awards in 2010.

​

For the past 4 years I have brought out my love for textiles and purchased an industrial embroidery machine to add another element to my creative business. So, as well as graphic design I now embroider clothing and products for clients.

​

Moving into the future I would love to bring screen printing into the mix - just need a bigger studio to house all the equipment :)
