So I’m a designer and illustrator specialising in creating joyful, colourful brand identities for businesses who want their brand to show all the unique qualities that makes their products or services so special.

As a seasoned graphic designer and life-long artist, I team up with ambitious business owners (that’s you!) to create brand visuals that leave their mark. Think bold ideas, full-of-life visuals, genuine designs, with splashes of fun and a drizzle of joy – all whipped up into one brand identity that is authentically (and legally) all yours.

So what are you after?

A brand identity (that’s alllll yours – no blurry copyright concerns)?

You got it.

Or what about regular, adhoc,
or one-off design support from a pro?

I’m your girl.

Looking to learn how to DIY...but better?

I use my decade of experience in art and design to help you get the basics right if design isn’t your thing, but it kind of has to be because you’re wingin’ it solo (don’t worry, we all are!). If that’s you (and was me, and everyone else in business) then book your spot onto the next branding masterclass I’m hosting.

Why Use Me?

Trained artist

Before everything else I'm an artist. With a BA degree to show it, I've had years of implementing the formal education across everything art and design; from colour theory to portrait painting, illustration to graphic design.

Corporate background

Being the in-house designer for several international cooperate companies over the years I’ve learnt a lot more than just design. From licensing rights to competitor analysis, you get a designer with comprehensive marketing skills mixed in.

Human, not a robot

None of the design work you get from me will have been made with AI. And nothing will come from a template. My artist values are rooted in human creativity and I feel incredibly strongly that if it doesn't begin in my sketchbook, it’s not a true work of art (which your brand visual absolutely should be!).

Full suite of visuals covered

From branding and illustrations to social media templates and video editing, using the full Adobe suite which I am certified in, I create all aspects of your visual identity from scratch in software that is the very benchmark of high quality.

Making the world a better place

...One joyful design at a time. I'm passionate about spreading joy through my work and my interactions with those I meet, if we all feel more positive in our daily lives I believe the big green and blue ball we’re floating on will be a happier place. It’s a big goal, but I'm determined to keep adding to some playful, colourful vibes to everything I work on nonetheless.

“I absolutely love AI, but I also deeply value the irreplaceable expertise, knowledge, and skill that professionals bring to their craft—and Holly truly exemplifi ed this in designing the AI Impact Hub logo. AI helped me brainstorm initial ideas, but Holly took those ideas and elevated them to a completely new level. We ended up moving in a very different direction than my initial suggestions, and I'm incredibly glad we did! The fi nal result is fantastic—the style, the quality, and the overall look are precisely what we needed. Holly’s expert touch made all the difference in creating something unique, stylish, and production-ready. Highly recommended!”

“What an eye opening masterclass. Made me confident in the areas I already knew and tweaked my knowledge in the correct direction! What was really useful for me personally, was being able to ask Holly for clarification on parts I wasn't quite sure on. She was lovely at listening to my scenarios and pointing me in the direction I needed to be headed in. Lots to think of for the future and I feel confident in using my own skills now to accomplish my goals for now, with a final tick in the box from Holly when rebranding day comes. Thank you for making me feel confident in my decisions and I can't wait to work with Holly in the future 🫶”
