Hi! I’m Melissa, an illustrator and surface pattern designer from the South Coast, UK.

My work is a celebration of colour, pattern, and playful design, specialising in bold, expressive surface patterns and joyful illustration. I love to bring everyday objects and products to life with a fresh, contemporary twist - perfect for textiles, homeware, and lifestyle brands that are looking for a bold outcome.

What I Do

A seamless floral pattern with pink and orange flowers and green leaves on a light pink background.

Surface Pattern Design

I create professional, high-resolution seamless repeats which can be licensed from my extensive portfolio, or I can create custom work that is unique to you.

Artist Collaborations

I have extensively provided artwork to brands looking to elevate their products with bold and unique artwork. Some of the categories I have worked in for artist collaborations include stationery, craft kits, tech, fashion accessories, kidswear, toys and games, home decor and textiles.

Illustration

My illustrations have been used on a range of products and surfaces, as well as in packaging projects, book cover design and editorial. I can create custom illustrations for a number of end uses, as well as providing access to my private portfolio for ready to go artwork for licensing.

Vibrant colours, contemporary design, unique artwork. My patterns turn heads.
