Feeling grateful to Yu Rong for inviting me to join her Creative Team on this inspiring project celebrating women’s achievements across cultures and history. 🌍✨

From archaeology to zoology, the women featured in this book have changed the world with their knowledge, creativity, courage and determination. Their stories remind us how powerful curiosity and imagination can be.

I had the pleasure of painting Niki de Saint Phalle, one of my favourite female artists whose bold spirit and joyful, fearless work has inspired me for many years. 💙

Honoured to be part of this celebration of remarkable women and changemakers.

📣Thrilled to share that my illustration series The Signal Realm has been selected for the Cheltenham Illustration Awards – Tales of the Uncanny exhibition! ✨

The series grew out of my experiences living and travelling across different countries, capturing those uncanny, dreamlike moments when unfamiliar places begin to feel strangely magical.

The exhibition will tour around the UK, and it’s currently on view at Park Campus, University of Gloucestershire from 9–25 March. FREE Entrance! I’ll be there for the closing party on 25 March and can’t wait to finally see the show in person and meet so many talented artists.

A huge thank you to and to the judges .horacek_ for selecting my work.

Honoured to be featured in Suboart Magazine Nr. 50 ✨

Becoming a children’s book author and illustrator has been a long, winding path, but every step has shaped who I am as an artist today. Thank you to everyone who has supported my work — more dreams and stories are on the way.
