Mhairi-Stella Illustration

I have always enjoyed drawing from an early age and upon meeting Pauline Diana Baynes, at a school book signing event i knew it was a creative life i would follow. I was so inspired by her beautiful Illustrative work from books such as The Chronicles of Narnia and J.R.R Tolkien's Lord of the rings, I've been developing my own drawing ever since and have continued to pursue my own creative career in illustrative art and now exploring the world of tattooing. 

My love for Art developed over my teenage years culminating in my graduation from Central St.Martins University with a BA Hons degree in graphics and illustration. I now live in Guildford, Surrey and work as an illustrator and tattoo apprentice, drawing daily inspiration from such subjects as nature, folk art and fairy tales with a focus on vintage style illustration and black and white art. 

If you would like to see what I get up to each day, including inspiration and musings head over to my social media such as instagram, Twitter or facebook.
