Artist Digital Illustration Craft Social Engagement

I am a freelance creative who specialises in illustration, live scribing, graphic recording, doodling and community art projects. I am passionate about showcasing the healing benefits the arts and creativity can have on your mind, body and soul. This passion comes from my own living experiences. I have co-produced creative health events and festivals in Coventry and online
I am cofounder of Street Art Strategy and currently working in partnership with Coventry BID and Coventry City Of Culture to produce the In Paint We Trust street art programme. We believe in the power of street art to transform spaces, places and people. We do this through commissioning artists for murals and working on community projects that allow people the opportunity to explore street art hands on
