For the keen-eyed among you, you might have noticed a new portfolio pop up on our artists page this week. We're so pleased to welcome our newest signing at Pickled ink, Isabelle Follath! 

We came across Isabelle's artwork on Instagram and instantly fell in love with her brilliant character sketches, and just had to get in touch to see if she was looking for representation. To our delight, Isabelle was keen to work with us and we already have some exciting projects on the horizon. We're sure you'll love her work as much as we do.  Find out a little more about her below. 

​If you would like to commission Isabelle please contact her agent Amy Kitcherside at [email protected]

​I spent my childhood doodling on every available surface and creating my own world through drawing and cutting out all the characters from my favourite picture books. However, I made a rather lengthy detour by studying Philosophy and Computer Science at university, only doing small illustration jobs here and there. Eventually I took the plunge and started to work as a freelance illustrator for advertising agencies, fashion magazines and book publishers.

With the birth of my daughter my love for picture books grew and when I took an e-course on illustrating for children’s books, I knew that I had found my happy place. Soon after I finished the course, I got my first assignment to illustrate a picture book with Quarto. 'Joy' written by Corrine Averiss, publishes in July  under the imprint words & pictures. 

 
I find inspiration everywhere, from the pebbles and flowers in my garden, to the colourful packaging in the supermarket. My preferred materials are pen and ink, watercolour, pencil and digital techniques to put it all together, but I'm always exploring new media. When I’m not drawing you can find me making more coffee, trying to learn new crafts or going on a hunt for art supplies and the perfect greenish-gold watercolour.
