About Pip Carter

Hello, I am Pip Carter an illustrator and author based in Swansea, Wales, UK.

My illustrations are colourful and expressive, blending modern and traditional styles. I work by hand using ink, pencil, watercolour, and gouache, and also create digital art using Photoshop and Procreate. I enjoy drawing nature, landscapes, people, animals, food, travel, buildings, and textile design.

Originally from York, I studied for a degree in Illustration at UCE Birmingham and an MA in Sequential Design at the University of Brighton, where I developed my narrative skills and love of storytelling. 

I enjoy roaming the wild and rolling Gower and Pembrokeshire coasts with my sketchbook, taking inspiration from nature.

My debut children’s chapter book The Winged Things, is a tale of nature versus mankind. It is out now to buy as an ebook, click here.
