Hey there! My name is Milly and I live in the New Forest, England. I love to illustrate children’s stories. My first book is due out in August 2026. Stay tuned!

In the meantime, if you would like to discuss any illustration opportunities then please get in touch.

I am a lecturer at Arts University Bournemouth, where I also recently received an MA in illustration. Previously I have completed teaching degrees from Cambridge University.

Briefly, I had a YouTube channel which is devoted to helping children learn character design. Please check out my ‘Draw with Milly’ page here. Whilst I no longer make YouTube content, I am available for presenting work.
