Hey there! My name is Milly and I live in the New Forest, England. I am a freelance illustrator: I love to create accurate caricatures of recognisable people, politicians and celebrities using ink and my dipping pen as well as a dash of Photoshop. The human face inspires me every single day. I am on the lookout for agency representation, can you help?

Feel free to reach out to me:

I am delighted to say that I am working on my first children’s picture book: ‘The Adventures of Queen Esme and Swish: the expanding unicorn’ is being made as we speak.

I am a visiting tutor in Digital Character Design at AUB (Arts University Bournemouth), where I will also be graduating with an MA in the summer of 2025! Previously I have completed teaching degrees from Cambridge University.

I have a YouTube channel which is devoted to helping children learn character design. Please check out my ‘Draw with Milly’ page here.

Message me if you’d like to discuss an opportunity!
