Hey! I’m Tommy Parker — a freelance illustrator based in Devon, UK.

About

My work is both character and colour-driven, and whilst graphic, it retains a tactile warmth and quirkiness. I aim to show intimate moments in accessible worlds that have been featured in editorials, book covers, branding and advertising campaigns.

Occasionally, you’ll also find me at the University of Plymouth as an Associate Lecturer, where I guide final-year students through their illustration and professional practices.

Don’t hesitate to contact me if you’d like me to talk or lecture at your institution.
