Cathy Simpson Illustration Finished pieces and work in progress from Cathy Simpson. Watercolours, pen & ink and digital illustrations.

This page features my recent work; though I work in watercolour and pen/ink in the main, I can also supply digital files. I'm happy to discuss any commissions - from paintings as a gift to a loved one, to illustrations for full-colour picture books. All the illustrations shown on here are available as limited edition prints, too.

A dream project!

Here's a recent illustration for an information panel promoting the biodiversity strategy for TransPennine Express, a wildflower meadow in this case. It's awaiting the associated text, which is why it looks rather empty in places!

I've been working on some really exciting projects which are still under wraps for now, but I'm sharing some botanical illustrations which are part of a forthcoming information board. Just not in this format!
