Illustrator + graphic designer
Harriet is an illustrator and graphic designer with a special interest in children’s picture books. Graduating in 1997 from Christchurch School of Art & Design with a Diploma in Visual Communications, she practised graphic design at a variety of agencies. Today she is freelancing in design and rediscovering her passion for illustration.
“I like to combine a range of media and enjoy expressive marks, real paint and sensitive colouring. A long time fan of children’s picture books, I find inspiration for drawing from my youngest friends and the fresh new world they inhabit.”
