Combining over 25 years of experience in both archaeology and illustration has led me to specialise in Heritage visualisation, working on projects worldwide, with clients in both the academic and commercial sectors.
My skills in hand drawn illustration, computer based graphic production and desktop publishing allow for a range of cross-platform visual realisation of archaeological graphics and reconstructions. I am specifically interested in the interpretation and research of available data to visually re-create the past using reconstructions of objects, sites and activities to capture and communicate ‘moments in time’.
I love to create illustrations for print and digital platforms and have a distinct style combining traditional and digital techniques. I enjoy exploring new approaches and overcoming challenges to create my work.
I have a Master’s degree in ‘Illustration: Visual Communication’ with the Interactive Design Institute: University of Hertfordshire, through which I have developed a special ineterest in creative heritage storytelling via creative interactive illustration and graphics.
