Katie Hickey
She / her
Katie is a freelance illustrator who graduated from Falmouth University in beautiful (and slightly soggy) Cornwall, England in 2016.
Having grown up in Cornwall, and also in the middle-east, Katie takes inspiration from her travels and surroundings to create characterful and atmospheric images. She particularly loves creating illustrations about the quirky stories and characters she meets along the way. Her work deals with both narrative and information and often combines the two. Katie’s work is also heavily inspired by 20th century book illustration with its colour palettes and printing processes. She uses a combination of hand rendered print processes and digital techniques to create her work. Her clients include: Bloomsbury, Walker Books, Harper Collins US, Chronicle Books, Little Tiger, Frances Lincoln Children's Books, Puffin, Barrington Stoke, Chicken House Books, Macmillan Children's Books, Tundra and Hachette Children's Books.
