I have also been fortunate enough to have lived by the coast for most of my life and have been able to travel worldwide, which has influenced my work.
If you are looking for someone to help with a graphic design project or a designer like me looking to collaborate, you’ve come to the right place! Watch the short video below to learn a bit more about me and the skills I have to offer:
I have over eight years experience designing surface pattern and graphics for fashion, product, and packaging. I have also designed several logos for established brands and companies. Having worked in-house and freelance for adult and kids fashion brands, I have a great eye for trends and colour palettes and can create tech-packs and print-ready artwork. You can view the designs I have created using the portfolio tab at the top of my website.
I also enjoy painting and have created several commissions which include hand painted wall murals. If you are interested in this side of my business, please contact me directly via the contact page on my website.
“Paige worked on a range of printed textile designs for our Beachwear Collection. From the very beginning, she demonstrated a deep understanding of my vision and translated it into a beautiful design with seamless repeat for printing. Paige clearly understands how patterns translate from screen to fabric, which made the whole process incredibly smooth. She has great attention to detail and colour harmony in her work with an ability to show originality whilst effectively staying true to the aesthetic of the brand and the parameters of the brief.
Both designs were created with a fluid hand painted feel and translated beautifully into the digital vector files required for printing. It’s a really valuable and unique skill of Paige’s to be able to bring the flair of her hand-painting skills so beautifully into a digital format without losing the essence, movement and hand-feel of the design.
Communication was smooth and prompt throughout the process, and Paige worked very fast and efficiently to deliver the designs within the fast timeframe required.
Paige is a pleasure to collaborate with. I can’t recommend her enough!”

Hello! I think it’s important that we gain inspiration from stuff other than our mobile phones and the internet. In this blog post, I’m going to tell you why nature and in particular, the ocean, inspires my work and what I think is important to a great design or piece of art. Firstly I’d like to talk about the great outdoors and why so much of my work is inspired by the natural world. I have been lucky enough to have lived by the sea for most of my life. I learnt how to surf at a young age and feel comfortable swimming long distances in open water. The sea is a place I can feel truly at one with nature, as to me it is like you are being physically picked up and wrapped up by the elements. I love that the ocean has this crazy energy which if you’re not careful, can catch you out. I feel as though this has influenced my work by making me want to be ambitious and take risks when designing. It’s rewarding exploring new ways to create colour and form. New techniques may not always work the first time but sometimes you might just find that little tweak that makes a graphic or print a whole lot more exciting.
I am currently creating prints and graphics for clients inspired by nature. Please get in touch if you have a business or personal project you need help with. My hourly rates are available to view on the contact and prices tab at the top of my website. You can also hire me through Upwork: https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01de51cb4c6c7ddfde.
