Illustration

Deliciously tactile illustrations for your project or brand.

Gorgeous illustration for passionate business owners

 

Sometimes a photograph just doesn’t cut it. When you need an image of a dodo or a witch on a vacuum cleaner you ain’t gonna find it on a stock site.

Illustration is also a powerful tool for boosting your brand’s image. You might not be aware of it, but small illustrative touches can give your designs that extra something

 

Original illustration tailor-made for small businesses like yours.

With so much visual noise being thrown at us every day it’s harder than ever to stand out online. This is why working with a professional illustrator to create bespoke illustrations specifically for your business is such a good investment: no-one else will have the same graphics.

You know how design trends can look really great at first, but then everyone starts doing it and they can look really old really fast? This won’t happen with bespoke illustrations. Working with Paper Arcade guarantees that your designs will be authentic and accurate to your small business.

Now THAT’S how you stand out from the crowd.

Digital and traditional illustration all in one place.

I’m a bit of an enigma. I love working with computers and tablets, illustrating using my trusty Apple pencil. 

But I also REALLY love working with paint, especially watercolours. I love the textures and the rich, sumptuous colours of inks. I love the roughness of the lines and the way the paper shines through the translucent shades. Basically, I love illustration that is a little bit imperfect and a whole lot human.

That’s the hallmark of my style: deep, sumptuous, textured, slightly imperfect illustration that ignites the senses and really draws the customer in.
