Introduction	My friends call me Ji-Ji the tourist queen. But honestly you can never get bored of London. Drawing British-ness, British flavoured illustrations- I love I love. The bright RED and the BLUEness of london, - I also love & love. I do miss the North East a lot though. My home town and where HARRY POTTER was filmed!! My art teacher taught GARETH PUGH. But unlike him, I like to draw terraced houses, buttons, bricks and elaborate forms of floral patterns. I work with dried plants & flowers A LOT. I have always been a collector of vintage stamp books, Victorian photo albums, Grimms fairy tale books & paper dolls. Im currently based in Central London. I often bring about these themes into my work - botanical garden, literature, childhood dreams, Alice in Wonderland, summer holidays, and London. I love drawing London. I will draw on the bus, train, in my back garden, in charity shops, sometimes even at the pictures!!! And my friends can testify this! Once a tourist in London, the city that has captured my heart, I have translated its busy character into my own magical drawings. Please have a look and enjoy! J x
