Natasha is a UK based freelance illustrator who loves using bold colours and incorporating words or a sense of movement into her work. She has always enjoyed sketching and drawing but her love for digital illustration began whilst leading the design team for Impact, her University’s student-run magazine. After her time there, she improved her skills and processes through self-initiated projects that focused on food and patterns, before becoming a frequent contributor to Vittles Newsletter. She has since been commissioned by Mob Kitchen, Shado Magazine and At the Table Magazine.
As she has become more experienced in article-based illustrations she has experimented with different types of imagery, endeavouring to portray the deeper meaning behind an author’s message.
She loves editorial illustration because it gives art a purpose - helping to enhance the words of a writer.
