Hi! I'm Emmeline, a freelance illustrator and author specialising in books and comics for young people. I love creating stories full of magic and mystery!
I'm represented by Thao Le of The Sandra Dijkstra Literary, so please forward all publishing enquiries to my agent.
My work is inspired by my love of history, nature, mythology and pop culture (tv shows, boardgames, podcasts and videogames!). I care deeply about equality, mental health, and the climate crisis, and these themes are a constant throughout my work.
I host workshops and lectures for all ages on illustration, comics, the creative industries, and freelancing; which led to me being awarded IPSE's ‘National Freelancer of the Year’ in 2016.
Feel free to pop an email over to me at hello@emmelineillustration.com if you would like to discuss illustration commissions, events, live illustration, or you just want to say hello!
