Design Gallery - Carys
I am an illustrator, based in Cardiff, and have my own small business. After studying BA Hons Illustration at UWTSD, I started my own shop, stocking prints and stickers, and began freelancing in illustration. I use a combination of traditional and digital methods to create my illustrations as I love the hand made feel it gives to my illustrations. I love injecting my humour and sarcasm into my illustrations, creating witty and unique characters. I am excited to help you bring all your visions to life! PLEASE NOTE: The total cost of an illustration project is calculated to include 4hrs of author liaison time, so that the author is fully involved in the illustration process. Cost Per Illustration x Number of Illustrations + 4hrs of Author Liaison Time for the Illustration Process (£142.23) = TOTAL COST |
