Hi, I'm Poppy. I'm a designer and illustrator based in Manchester, UK.
I design book covers, branding, and illustrate editorial pieces and greetings card with a fresh, contemporary feel. Alongside freelancing I work as a Creative Practice & Galleries Assistant Technician at Manchester School of Art.
If I'm not working you will probably find me listening to an audiobook while doing a jigsaw, baking choc chip cookies, or weightlifting at the gym.
