Spring 2025

I was asked Kirklees regeneration team to create art work in several empty shop windows in Huddersfield town centre to brighten up and tired area of Byram Street.
The brief was to create a sense of community and pride and to come up with some design ideas alongside a window to represent the LGBTQ+ community of Huddersfield.
I researched history, heritage, the beautiful architecture, the arts and entertainment, the people and communities and the landmarks and countryside as they are fundamentally what make Huddersfield the place it is! I had the idea for a trail to engage and interest the public. Kirklees suggested a lion trail as there are several lion sculptures and engravings across the many historical listed buildings.
Here are some photographs of the themed windows with ‘find the lion’ trail illustrations.
This is phase 1. I will update the website over the summer when phase 2 is complete.

The brief was to illustrate 10 6m x 3m bays with murals for a brand new Street food Hall in kingsgate Shopping centre, Huddersfield. The brand- ‘Street Eats‘ Uses a magenta and yellow colour palette which I teamed with white and black. With this being such a large scale mural and with a short time scale to complete it in, I created abstract shapes and Filled them with quirky black line drawings of Street food, Food quotes and characters eating! They really stand out and create a uniform, clean feel to the food hall.

There were lots of large windows along corridors that needed brightening up and making more fun and interesting for the children! I added scenes and illustrations around both infants and juniors from the books they were reading as part of the curriculum. Lots of fun!

The lovely large windows lined a corridor that was used several times a day by the infant school children but was very uninspiring. It is now packed full of large scale illustrations from the childrens’ favourite picture books! A joy to paint!
