✨I’m now open to PRIVATE COMMISSIONS✨ . A4 paintings starting from £75. Price includes P&P. . During these tricky stuck-at-home times I’m also happy to do a gift artwork for someone of your choice, and can post it directly to them with a message from you handwritten by me. Could make birthday gifting a bit easier for the next few months? . Currently I can only post out UK commissions, but if you’re outside of the UK I can add you to the top of my ‘after lockdown list’. . Message me or email me at [email protected] for more info. . Artwork ideas include: a pet or favourite animal / your home or kitchen / a special object / food illustration / flowers / lettering / a portrait or family portrait / a landscape or view you like... you decide! Check out my Instagram and website to see the kind of work I make. . . . . #commissionsopen #commissions #commissionswelcome #privatecommission #chicken #chickensofinstagram #illustrate #illustration #illustrator #painting #art #artistsofinstagram #instaart #instaartist #colour #buzzfeast #watercolor #printsale #elisacunningham #onlineshop #printshop #buyart #artworkforsale #illustratorsoninstagram #illustratorsofinstagram #printmakersofinstagram #prints #print #supportsmallbusiness #supportlocalartists

I’m so proud of my friend @jessehodgsonillustration for writing and illustrating such a beautiful picture book! You make such stunning compositions and such soft, squishy characters. And thank you to @flyingeyebooks for sending me an advanced copy. 🎋🏔✨

Very exciting announcement alert! This week Midnight Chicken & Other Recipes Worth Living For is published. It’s a cookbook (and memoir) by the wonderful Ella Risbridger, which I painted some 100 illustrations for this summer. I’m looking forward to sharing the illustrations with you all! Thanks to Bloomsbury Cooks for being a pleasure to work with and thanks to designer Anita Mangan for bringing it all together. Can’t wait for the launch party this Thursday at Waterstones Tottenham Court Road.

Recently I went on a brilliant drawing trip with my creative friend, Rosie Dolton, to Bristol Zoo, for one of the summer late night openings! 

Here’s a little selection of drawings I made at the Eden Project recently. I had lots of fun drawing with friends, including some of my fave illustrators @martha-anne and Tom Henderson. So many lovely leaves!

Back to my first love for an evening... acrylic paint!

Today @jo_chaps is getting married! 👰🏽Here's a little pic I painted 5 years ago of her and I sitting on a bench in Monaco. 🌴
