Her work is delightfully whimsical and I love the way she’s built up a personal repertoire of iconography that is seamlessly threaded into each of her characters throughout her compositions.

Her art has an appealing folksy charm about it that makes it really unique. So I tracked Nancy down to ask her more about her art process…

“I live and work in Melbourne Australia. I grew up on a farm with my grandparents. There were apple orchards and cows. I had a pony called Frisco and a cat called Smokey. I have always liked drawing.
I studied art at the Victorian College of Arts, Melbourne completing a BA in fine Arts majoring in painting. I now work fulltime as an illustrator. I draw, paint and make murals.
I get commissions from graphic designers, ad agencies, architects, foodies, stylists, retailers, corporates and the general public.
