It’s in the quiet details that we uncover what makes your story unique. The ones that usually go unseen, but bring your vision alive. Through bespoke botanical illustration and considered brand design, let’s create something genuinely handcrafted that stands out. Not by being loud, but by being unmistakably yours.

How I can help with your illustration or brand project
Working with me is a thoughtful, collaborative process grounded in care, creativity and connection. It begins with listening to your story, your ideas, and the details that make your vision unique.
Inspired by the natural world and rooted in hand-drawn traditions, everything I create is designed to feel calm, considered, and genuinely yours. Not just how it looks, but how it feels when it finds the right person.
Here are ways we can work together to create something that feels like you or your business.

“Simone's botanical-inspired designs were the perfect match for me, and her talent shone through in all the elements she produced. I am absolutely over the moon with the end product and have had really lovely feedback from my clients.”
Hi, I’m Simone
“I draw the details people feel but can’t always find the words for.”
I’m a visual translator of thoughts and feelings. I love to take ideas, sometimes vague or half-formed, and capture their essence with calm, care, and beauty. I’m a logical thinker with a creative flair, a little obsessed with symbolism, and happiest when a piece of work makes someone feel genuinely seen.
With over 20 years in the design industry, I’ve worked with brands including Penguin Random House, the NHS, and Bothy Threads, and I’m currently creating the illustration for the Newark Book Festival. My studio sits in rural Nottinghamshire alongside the River Trent, where the seasons, the hedgerows, and the quiet of the countryside find their way into everything I make.
I work with nature lovers, independent makers, and purposeful businesses who want something that truly feels like them.
