About
I am an artist, illustrator and graphic recorder, based in London and working nationally and internationally. The emphasis of my work is on live illustration/ visual minuting and graphic recording. My practice also includes conventional illustration and artwork for animations. Although I mainly work solo, I frequently team up with other freelance colleagues to form temporary teams.
I initially trained as a scientific and craft glassblower and have a BA(Hons) in Art and Design as well as an MA in Applied Linguistics with an emphasis on Discourse Analysis. This has been very useful for my graphic recording work, which is as much about listening as it is about drawing. In 2022 I completed a Masters in Illustration at Cambridge School of Art/Anglia Ruskin University, during which I explored the international field of graphic recording and extended my theoretical knowledge and technical abilities. I am currently an associate lecturer at CSA where I run occasional workshops.
I enrolled on the doctoral research programme at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in September 2023 with the provisional research question: what happens when you take the practice of live graphic recording out of its commercial context into the world of visual organisational ethnography - via collaborative theatre - and back again?
Please contact me with any questions - if I can’t help, I can probably put you in touch with somebody who can!
PS: in addition to my British passport I hold a European one, which makes working on the continent a lot easier.
