It’s late October, and here in the northeast of England it definitely feels like autumn outside. The sun is setting earlier, the air is crisp and cool, and leaves are crunching underfoot.

In honor of today being International Women’s Day, I thought it would be a great time to share a few more of the illustrations I created for the Grace & Grit subscription boxes, which highlight the achievements of strong and inspiring women from history. I talked about the project here, and since then the Grace
Last year, I began working on a fantastic new long-term project that I’m excited to share — Grace & Grit subscription boxes. They’re aimed at pre-teen girls, and are designed to empower and encourage. Each one is based on an inspiring female figure from history, and every box includes a portrait of that inspirational woman, a journal with

Here’s a little rhinoceros-focused print I just made available on my Etsy shop shop. There’s nothing like the unique profile and hilarious shape of a rhino to brighten your day, especially when he’s this colorful! Have a Rhinomite weekend, everyone!
For this Valentine’s Day email to my clients I illustrated this quote from Gandhi. I think it captures the idea of love in the broader sense, not just romantic love but love of all kinds, which I think is worth celebrating this February 14th! I’m also offering it as a print for sale on
