Step into the Baddie world...

Baddie          Mart

A supermarket of high fashion, glitz and glam, and shopping shennanigans. 

BaddieMart the visual narrative is an appreciation of my adoration of the baddie aesthetic, prevalent within online spaces and within the female hip hop space. 

You can keep up with the episodes of BaddieMart on my instagram account... @bad.b1tchery_


Crownhill Library Mural

In November 2025, me and a group of four illustrators (friends) were tasked with the challenge of decorating Crownhill Library’s windows for the Christmas season.

This is the section of space that I had to work with! It was a very exciting opportunity which was seen and enjoyed by many groups of visiting local children.

Peachtober 2025

Peachtober is an annual October art challenge which is hosted on instagram by @furrylittlepeach !


All set on the planet “Auturn” (the autumn version of Saturn), the Peachtober prompts helped me create a project filled with whimsical characters and scenes.

I had such  a great time developing these pieces. The creation of Mr. Slug will be something I plan to revisit with my future illustrations.

Once Upon A Winter 2025

Once Upon A Winter is a challenge/competition hosted by Orangebeak Studio!It was so fun to get in the festive spirit with Hoggo the hedgehog! Hopefully he’ll make a festive return later on this year...

Out Of pocket.


Out of pocket is a children’s book project which is currently a work in progress.

Have you ever wondered how animals carry their belongings? Pockets, of course. In this weird, wonderful narrative a pocketless ferret needs a place to carry his belongings, but who will help him?

About Me

I’m an illustrator based in the UK,
who specialises in children’s book
illustration, with a side passion 
of fashion forward illustration. 
I have a dual nature to my approach 
with illustration, it’s important 
that I never feel stale and always
progress forward within my art.
Having two styles allows me to do
this in the most expressive way.
