Hi, I’m Polly! My illustrations are a culmination of playful paintings and objects that communicate the interconnectivity between adults and children.

​

I create compassionate and joyful artwork, parading with movement, that are influenced by my personal relationships with my parents and my own nostalgia of childhood. 

I am a champion for allowing for better communication between adults and children and balancing the authority.

Playful and imaginative spaces allow us as adults to better connect with our inner child and I communicate these themes of childhood through storytelling. Mainly centred around picture-books and frozen moments.

​

I completed my undergraduate degree in Illustration at Cardiff Metropolitan University in 2022. In my final year I collaborated with a fellow illustrator to illustrate a children's book; The Fairy Who Lived In A Pop-Can, which was published the next year in 2023. In 2023 I started a Masters in Illustration and Animation at Cardiff Met.
