Beyoncé illustration for the book, 'Beyoncé is Life,' by Kathleen Perricone.

A third exciting publication has just launched for 2024 - ‘Beyoncé is Life,’ by Kathleen Perricone, features 30+ illustrations (by yours truly) of Beyoncé’s most iconic ensembles throughout her career.
It was an absolute DELIGHT to delve into the archives and revisit so many core-memory sartorial moments – from the 00’s, especially!

This book is one in a series of uniquely illustrated editions, each chronicling the evolution of some of our most beloved pop-culture figures.
I’m truly honoured to be one of the few artists lending their hand to these icons of style!

Stay tuned for perhaps one more book on the horizon…*wink*

In the meantime you can find ‘Beyoncé is Life’ in all good bookstores both bricks and mortar and online! Click here for more info!

cocktails in PARIS

I’m so pleased to share the cover and some of the inside illustrations for the brand new ‘Cocktails in Paris’ by Audrey Laroux, published by Smith Street Books.
Spanning four seasons, the book lists 50 recipes to take you from the wintry Pont Alexandre III all the way to a balmy stroll around Montmarte – complete with an arm load of market flowers.

This project was an absolute dream to work on, combining two of my greatest loves – fashion & Paris. It also allowed me to develop a slightly different style – combining finer details with a more restrained hand – to portray the great city and its inhabitants in all its colour and glory!

Cocktails in Paris is available in all good bookstores now, worldwide.
