Hello!

I’m Hollie, a UK based freelance illustrator and maker.

My playful approach to image making is inspired by people and things, often influenced by the mundanities of everyday life.

If you’d like to say hello or talk about a project, you can find me at hollie.draws@gmail.com

Hollie’s work exudes charm and warmth. Her ability to tell a compelling story clearly and confidently with a limited set of forms, colours and textures really impressed me. Her work with The Hepworth Wakefield drew me in, intelligently balancing the subject matter and a playful approach.

With her pastel hues and playful lines, Hollie has a brilliant ability to add layers of subtle narrative and charming wit to her work. It was a privilege to commission Hollie and the cover she designed for us remains a recognised favourite amongst our following.
