Since March 2026 I have worked with GASProjects as an invigilator for exhibitions created by artists such as Kelley O'Brien and Josie Ko, usually with activist themes. I also run badge making and arts & crafts workshops for all ages, alongside my role of supervising the exhibits and providing a welcoming environment by greeting customers and answering their questions about the artworks.
Work Experience
04
'Collections' Calendar - Pittville Press
In January 2026 my artwork was selected to feature in Pittville Press' calendar, a copy of which is given to each artist who works with Pittville Press or delivers a guest lecture at the University of Gloucestershire. Since the theme was 'Collections,' I decided to draw a collection of cats in a jigsaw-like pattern. This artwork was used for the month of December.
05
'Everything I Make Is Mediocre' Magazine - Pittville Press
From January - May 2025 I worked with a team at Pittville Press as a graphic designer to illustrate and publish a magazine & activity book about the self-doubt artists often feel. I illustrated a main magazine page & two activity pages. Copies of this magazine have sold at multiple markets, stalls and art events attended by Pittville Press, including our degree show shop.
06
Advertisement Assets
In November 2024 I illustrated advertisement assets for creative incubator Jolt Studios. This included posters and Instagram advertisements showcasing the services they offer creatives, such as membership and free Wi-Fi.
07
Lesson Plan Illustrations
In October 2024, I worked with Round Circle Design to illustrate animals for a lesson plan created by Flourish Project. The theme of the lesson plan was the evolution of life, so I illustrated many life forms from an amoeba to a dinosaur. To view the final lesson plan, please click here.
