Hi, I’m Olivia! 

I’m an illustrator and stoneware ceramicist based in North London. I have always loved drawing and studied fine art and textiles at school. I went on to study English with Film at King’s College London, but continued to illustrate and paint commissions in my free time. 

After graduating I have been learning how to make and paint ceramics. My collections of decorative and functional pieces are inspired by natural forms and my love of vintage artwork. I really love working with clients to create something bespoke and meaningful. 

After designing a friend’s tattoo and having such a lovely experience getting my first in 2021, I have loved looking at tattoo artists’ work and exploring how my artwork and illustrative style would translate into the medium of tattooing. I’ve since been sketching tattoo designs and collecting inspiration from museums, galleries, and vintage books and artwork.

I’m so happy to have found The Nana Room where I can develop my artistry and learn the skill of tattooing from such a great team x
