Soon after graduating, she began her career in illustration.Denise's character-driven illustrations are created by a combination of hand-drawn elements, scanned photographs and digital textures, and are inspired by childhood memories, animals and children. She is happiest when creating a new, fun character and can often be overheard giggling whilst drawing (or so her studio colleagues tell her!).Denise works from her shared studio at The Sorting Office in Eastleigh, Hampshire.
