About

Hello, I'm Zoë, an illustrator based in Newcastle Upon Tyne. I specialise in architectural watercolour illustrations, specifically of places in the North East. I'm originally from Hull, however since studying at Northumbria University I fell in love with Newcastle. I don't think I'll ever run out of incredible buildings and local businesses to illustrate.

My business started in 2018, but during lockdown I really had the time to dedicate to it and grow it into what it's become today. My style has changed a lot since I first started illustrating, from black and white ink drawings to my most recent watercolour and ink paintings.

My favourite thing is getting to sell my work at markets and meeting customers, especially when they recognise the places I have illustrated. Whether it's the pub they had their first date in with their partner, or their favourite local cafe, I love seeing people's reactions to places I have illustrated.
