What previous clients have said

  • 'Never fails to deliver'

    In a fast-paced agency you need an illustrator who just ‘get’s it’ and Laura never fails to deliver. As well as being highly creative, Laura’s illustrations always fit the brief. There’s no fuss, excellent communication and she consistently brings new ideas to the table. I can’t recommend her enough.

    Lucy Doolan, Design Director, Hill+Knowlton Strategies

  • 'Delight to work with'

    To be able to get her to do illustrations for our book was fantastic. She’s a brilliant illustrator, she turned her hand swiftly and creatively to whatever we threw at her, and she was generally a delight to work with. I cannot recommend her and her unique, captivating style thoroughly enough.

    Oliver Holden-Rea, Senior Commissioning Editor, Welbeck Publishing

  • 'A very special talent'

    Laura has a very special talent and everyone here sends their thanks for what she has done for us and our website.

    Really look forward to working together again in the near future.

    Val King, Willow Kitchen and Interiors
