A friend recently tagged me in a post showing me Megy Design’s fabulous work & I was immediately drawn to her style & talent. Plus her name is pretty damn cool, so I knew I had to make contact!
This designer, doodler & wannabe-hipster (her own words) is a super mum & truly a beautiful soul. I am sure that you will agree after reading a little bit more about her & her business…

Why do you love what you do: I have always been a creative person, and I have been drawing since I was 5.

I love being able to draw and create fantasy worlds, and I love it when clients give me a drawing challenge.

Anything else you want to add: Just that I am trying my hardest to get my first solo children’s book published at the moment, so keep an eye out for ‘Henry’ 🙂
Please contact Megan if you have any ideas you want brought to life, & make sure you follow her on social media. I’m trying to decide whether I want a unicorn or family portrait from this lovely lady – or if I should just do both! What do you think?
