I’m Holly - An Artist, Illustrator and Surface Designer based in the Cotswolds, England, and the face (and hands) behind Puffin and Thistle.

My hand drawn illustrations and designs seek whimsy in the every day, and beauty in the wild places and untamed faces.

Along with my love of nature and animals,  I marry my British heritage and upbringing, and weave them through my inspiration, to create art that feels like both home, and an adventure, all in one.

I’m currently finalising my upcoming portfolio with all my licensable work, working on several book projects to bring forward to publishers soon, and creating prints and other items for my online shop - so make yourself at home, take a look around, and be sure to sign up for exciting updates.
