Amy Holliday (Card Artist)

I have always had an enthusiasm for drawing, and art has been a consistent passion in my life. I find myself inspired by my affinity for animals, nature and conservation and by the things I find fascinating; exotic places, colourful cultures, and the novelty of exciting objects found in everyday life. I love to try to capture the energy and excitement but also the detail and beauty in things. I enjoy illustrating from life, and whenever I have the chance, I like to take my sketchbook along to places where I can record my direct observations. My upbringing in the varied landscape of Cumbria and my travels to colourful destinations have nurtured my already overactive imagination, and illustrating serves as a good outlet for it!
