Daisy Jenkins illustrations

I am a textiles designer born in Spain and raised in Bristol. By day I design textiles prints for fashion, which is super fast paced and exciting, whilst my evenings and weekends are spent illustrating customised portraits for clients on a far more personal level – I love that I get the best of both worlds!

I started creating portraits for family and friends as birthday gifts, as an excuse to play on my new iPad Pro. Taking details from photos, I hand-draw every element, using Procreate. I am able to take people/layout/hair/clothes etc (in fact just about anything!) from numerous photographs and merge them together to create the ideal portrait. I also like to put my textile design skills to good use and draw people’s favourite flowers or motifs in the background to give it that final decorative touch.
