the square card company
about the artists
After completing a degree in 3D design at Brighton Poly I illustrated for the Body Shop, painted murals for a year and then changed tack and taught primary aged children until the birth of my daughter. We moved to Bermuda for 3 years where I sold collages and paintings through local art galleries.
When we returned to the UK, I painted botanical images for a ceramics company and then when my son started full time school I started up The Square Card Company.
My children are my greatest inspiration and my fiercest critics. They have come up with lots of ideas and it was Finn who is now eleven that designed the bird wrap and also the bug, peacock, monster and toucan cards.
My latest project has been writing and illustrating books for Random House. Peely Wally has been a huge success and has been selected to go in the goody bags that all children in the UK receive at their 18th month health check, it has also been turned into digital books and there are plans to create an iphone ap from the story. Polly Wally the sequal, should be published next year.
The three of us now live in an old gamekeepers cottage in the middle of a wood in Wiltshire,
life is good!
