HELLO, I’M ISSEY!
I’m an illustrator, speedy sketcher and printmaker currently based in Shetland where I work at Gaada.
I create playful narrative illustrations for brands, publications and children’s media.
I also draw live portraits at events and love making comics, zines and running workshops!
When I’m not illustrating stuff I like swimming, mending holes in jumpers and pickling vegetables.
Get in touch if you would like to work together or hire me for your event:
