Fine Line Botanical Illustration
Hand-drawn in fine line pen, rooted in nature and the language of flowers. For people who want something that holds a story.
Every illustration I create begins with a story. Sometimes it’s yours, a flower that holds a memory, a bouquet you want to keep forever, a moment worth preserving in fine line and ink. Sometimes it’s for a brand, where the visual language needs to feel handcrafted, considered, and genuinely alive.
I love to work with a 0.05 fine liner, with a deep love of botanical symbolism, and over 20 years of design experience. Whether you’re a nature lover looking for something personal or a brand looking for something distinctive, you’ll find what you need below.
Personal Commissions and Keepsakes
For nature lovers, gift-givers, and anyone who wants to preserve something precious in fine line and ink.
Some things deserve to be drawn by hand. A wedding bouquet full of memories. A garden flower that grew outside your childhood home. A birth flower to celebrate a new baby. Or a plant that always reminds you of someone you love.
I create bespoke botanical illustrations that hold those stories. Hand-drawn in fine line pen with care, symbolism, and quiet attention to detail. Each piece is entirely personal, made to be framed, gifted, or kept close.
Personal Commissions
- Bespoke botanical commissions — flowers, plants, and natural details that hold meaning
- Illustrated Bouquets — wedding, birth, memorial, or simply beloved (coming soon)

Investment
Personal commissions are priced according to size, complexity, and detail.
As a guide, small pieces begin from £75, with larger or more detailed works from £150. Every commission is quoted individually after a short conversation about what you have in mind.
Small original artworks, prints, birth flower cards and paper goods are available from my Etsy shop. A quieter way to bring a piece of the natural world into your home.
Coming Soon – The Illustrated Bouquet
Capture a loved one in a beautifully illustrated bouquet. Select each flower or foliage to reflect their personality and the stories only you know, drawn from personal memory and the Victorian language of flowers. Hand-drawn in fine line pen, each piece is as individual as the person it celebrates. And every bouquet comes with its own story.
Whether it’s your wedding bouquet, a birth flower, or a collection of blooms that simply means something to you, each Illustrated Bouquet is a piece you’ll keep forever.

Commercial Illustration and Licensing
For brands, publishers, and makers who want illustration that feels handcrafted, meaningful, and unmistakably human-made.
Fine line botanical illustration brings something to a brand that no other visual can. It signals care, craft, and a story worth telling. It makes a product feel considered, a publication feel distinctive, and a brand feel like something real people made with intention. Every piece begins with a conversation, because the details that make your brand or product truly yours are the ones worth drawing.
My work has been licensed by Bothy Threads, published by Penguin Random House, and is currently being created for the Newark Book Festival. I work with creative, lifestyle, and heritage brands that value craftsmanship and authenticity. If that sounds like you, I’d love to hear about your project.

I’m happy to discuss your project and provide a clear quote before any commitment is made.
Working together
Every commission, personal or commercial, begins with a conversation. I listen first, then sketch, then draw.
I work in fine line pen on paper, sometimes adding soft watercolour for warmth and depth. For commercial projects, finished artwork is professionally digitised and supplied in the formats you need.
Together, we’ll create artwork that:
Preserves cherished memories or moments | Offers a heartfelt and meaningful gift | Adds warmth and authenticity to your home or brand | Tells your story through fine-line illustration and symbolism | Reflects your values and what matters most | Enhances your brand or products with thoughtful, handcrafted design

Whether you have a clear vision or just a feeling you can’t quite put into words yet, that’s exactly where we start.
