I am a children's illustrator and mural artist living in Merseyside, North West of England.
I have a master's degree (merit) in Illustration from Falmouth University, and I also attended Pop Up Project's course 'Pathways into Children's Publishing' between 2019 - 2021.
My work has been praised by publishing professionals such as Cathy Cassidy, Rob Biddulph and Tim Quinn. My favourite illustrators include Axel Scheffler, Judith Kerr, Nick Sharratt and Nick Butterworth.
Career highlights so far include working with Peter Pauper Press on a lift-the-flap series, and illustrating Enid Blyton's 'The Secret Seven' for a young audience.
I am represented by Deborah Millinship at Advocate Art. I am open to work and would love to take on new projects.
My portfolio is available to view here: Holly Bushnell | Advocate Art
I am also available for primary school bookings, for illustrator/book workshops. I am able to supply art and writing worksheets based on the books I've illustrated, too. Activities include flipchart drawing, story-time and Q+A. I might also come in fancy dress! These could be half day sessions, or even full day.
