hello

since I have actually started posting some what regularly, I wanted to introduce myself a little more.

 My name is Charlotte Whiteing and I am an illustrator and designer from England. I am currently studying illustration at the University of Huddersfield in Yorkshire. As an artist, I tend to focus a lot on work aimed towards children with cute and playful designs, this passion for children's work will hopefully allow me to illustrate for children's books in the future.

As well as children's drawings, I make and design a lot of greetings cards for friends and family. Soon I plan on getting some of my cards professionally printed so I can sell them (if this interests you comment on this post or message me on my social media!!).

I mostly use watercolours and fine liner pens for my illustrations as I love the effect I can get with them. Recently, I have been experimenting with digital using Autodesk sketchbook on my laptop as I want to improve digital skills a lot as I know it is very for commercial work which I hope to do more of in the future. The self portrait above in an example of my recent digital experimentations. I am also a very big fan of different printing techniques like lino and Risograph as I like the more individual style of each print.

I hope this lets you get to know me a little more and if you ever have any questions, don't hesitate to ask in the comments on my posts or any of my social media accounts.
