Izzy works from her studio based in Norfolk which she shares with many plants and two old dogs. She creates highly detailed drawings either in pure graphite or with a combination of watercolour and pencil, adding a vibrancy of colour to the finished piece.
Her work is inspired by the rich history of Norfolk in particular the town of King’s Lynn which Izzy is creating an illustrated book on. Old heritage sites such as Castle Acre are favourite places to draw. Abbeys and ruins places of quiet, full of memories of the past.
Izzy exhibits regularly throughout the year with the West Norfolk Association of Artists. In 2019 she had the amazing opportunity of taking part in Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year. Follow the link here to view the time lapse drawing on episode 4 at Herstmonceux Castle.

When not drawing Izzy can be found reading or writing children’s stories, including one inspired by the woods, which she hopes to have published one day.
Izzy takes commissions and can be contacted via the contact form on the website so do please get in touch if you have a drawing in mind.
