MEET THE ARTIST 

🎨Amanda is an experienced Artist, Illustrator, and Pattern Designer with over sixteen years of professional practice. She is known for delivering high-quality, bespoke artwork tailored to the unique needs of her clients. Her diverse portfolio includes collaborations with both small independent brands and large multinational companies, creating illustrations for books, magazines, packaging, menus, websites, stationery, homeware, and apparel.

Working primarily by hand using watercolours, coloured pencils, and ink, she brings a traditional, artisan feel to her work, later transforming it into high-resolution, layered digital files for modern ease and versatility. Her art is deeply influenced by her passions: nature, wellbeing, and food. Living in the scenic Derbyshire countryside, she draws daily inspiration from the natural world around her.

She particularly enjoys working with brands in the natural health and wellness space, creating artwork that reflects authenticity, beauty, and personality. Passionate about sharing her knowledge and creative process, she will be teaching a special illustration workshop at our studio on 6th August—a unique opportunity to learn directly from an artist known for her warmth, professionalism, and creative insight.
