I’m Diane, an illustrator, art educator, and creative. I studied at Norwich School of Art, where I developed my love for illustration. My work is mainly created using hand-drawn methods—pencil, inks, and gouache—before being blended with digital elements. I also create fully digital pieces alongside my traditional work.

I often draw girl characters inspired by my two daughters and love bringing animals to life with personality, expression and humour. Through my work I aim to create illustrations that spark curiosity, nostalgia, and a sense of wonder.

Random facts about me…

I’m a huge David Bowie fan.

Got through my teenage years by diving into heavy metal and rock music—and still love it to this day.

Love all things ’80s, especially cheesy ’80s films. (Love Labyrinth and The NeverEnding Story).

Grew up in Germany and therefore have an obsession with marzipan.

Could spend hours just staring up at the stars.
