I was born in 1982 and grew up in Richmond, Surrey. At the age of 5, I had decided my future career as an illustrator.

In 2004 I graduated from the University of Brighton with a BA Hons in Illustration and have continued to produce my own range of cute 1920’s inspired art since. In the last few years I have completed designs for several card companies, created illustrations for websites, T shirts and magazines as well as showing my work across the UK at exhibitions such as the Affordable Arts Fair in Battersea and with Degreeart Ltd. I have been interviewed and featured in several publications such both on and offline. In recent months I have started producing one off fine art commissions, which has been some of the most personally enjoyable work Ive done, as briefs are very loose and allows me time to produce a piece I would like(within reason!)

My work is fashion based often with a 1920’s feel, although influences range from food, animals, humour, found images and often just pure fantasy. All my pieces have a handmade aesthetic by using a variety of materials including coloured card, paint and fabric. To maintain a certain ambiguity over the characters identities, I often represent them as silhouettes. I like my work to remain uplifting and although it sounds cheesy I like the idea that my picture has brightened up someone’s day.

I am available for commissions, projects and art sales. Please contact me if you would like to buy or would be interested in seeing any more of my work.

Vicky has been an artist with Badges Of Honour since early 2007!
