Kate Mockford: Many Happy Returns to illustration (illustrator, Lipstick of London)

"I live near the beach in North Cornwall, UK with my partner and two crazy, amazing children.I took a year out to travel from California down to Chile with my partner, before children. Travelling overland on chicken busses with a long boarder whose board only just fits on the bus is an experience in itself! Fast-forward ten years and here I am now with a few more life experiences under my belt and a sea of ideas in my head ready to be drawn and shared."

Kate's clients include:-

Snapchat, #2minutebeachclean, Nike, Design Week Magazine, Radio Times, Sunday Times Style Magazine, Stranger Magazine.
