mastodon 4.7.3I’m an artist based in North East England, making things for web and print. Creating zines about nature, science, local stories and quiet daily moments.
Working with my dyslexia and ADHD to find and tell stories through illustration, graphic design, websites, papercraft, music, photography, comics and zines.
I love doing art workshops. My ideas often begin in collaboration or as drawings from life, using my sketchbook to explore, plan and think.
Just thinking about education being entirely separated from everyday life.
As if it's something only children do. As if you can stop learning at 16. As if learning only happens inside a classroom under the guidance of a teacher.
And now I'm thinking about the difference between learning and education.
And now I'm thinking about how it's weird that adults don't play more.
What a morning. It's only 8:30.
I'm glad I know the planets but I wish to also know the trees.
web findings 11 https://britthub.co.uk/web-findings-11/
This time I’ve been gathering links for at least six weeks. It’s been the summer holidays and I have a young child so my time has been very occupied. Here are some of the things I found in spare moments or just before the holidays started and then didn’t get round to posting sooner. Beautiful […]

Andy Burnham could be a good prime minister. He'd be off to a great start if he made school meals free for every child.
Derwentwater https://britthub.co.uk/derwentwater/
I drew this from a photo of Derwentwater taken by my partner’s sister. Digital drawing using Sketchbook on my tablet. There’s a lovely brush called tattoo inker that I used for the outlines. It feels very nice to draw with. I actually shared this a while ago on socials but have been neglecting my blog. […]
Sketchnotes https://britthub.co.uk/sketchnotes/
Back in January (I know it’s May now, I’ve been in a doing rather than documenting kind of mood for the last few months – I honestly thought I’d already made this blog post) I joined in with World Sketchnote Week. I really enjoyed getting into sketching my thoughts and ideas, noting down interesting details […]
A very important note saved in my phone two years ago:
A legend of Zelda game but link and Ganon have been put into the same body for "safe" prisoner transport. Knowing that if, or rather when, they escape their first instinct will be to find the princess and the triforce.
Playing a very dangerous game.
One sheet at a time.
No sudden moves.
Turns out today is a caffeine sends me back to sleep day.
Cardboard Cliffs https://britthub.co.uk/cardboard-cliffs/
I have a lot of cardboard, I enjoyed making this ripped piece into art. I used a combination of different paint markers for this. I bought some super cheap ones from a discount shop so that I wouldn’t worry about destroying the nibs. I need to do more.
