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. 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.
