I am a freelance illustrator based in London, UK specialising in handcrafted bespoke, made to order puppets/models. Once photographed these communicate emotive storytelling for use in publishing, editorial, craft product and advertising. I make my models using clay, plaster, fabrics and other materials. Wire structures and changeable facial features allow for the models to pose and display a variety of movements and expressions. My work is heavily influenced by the whimsy of everyday life and character observations.
