PERSONAL WORK

This Thing started as a personal passion project to hone my skillset and find my personal design style. It has since turned into my freelance business, and has amassed an online following of over 27k engaged community members. I still enjoy creating my own personal work to share with the community - a sample of which can be found here. My main aim with these pieces is to use colour, illustration and handlettering to create approachable work that engages people in conversation and community.

My most recent pieces can be found on my Instagram page. If you would like to enquire about potential licensing of any of my personal designs, please feel free to email me.
