Zowie Green
Fine Artist & Illustrator
Professional info
Working across the disciplines of Fine Art and Illustration has enabled me to develop a versatile style that is suitable to the contexts of narrative illustration, editorial illustration and fine art exhibitions. I have experience in theatre set design, mural painting, book illustration and organising group exhibitions. I have a level 2 Add+Vantage qualification in Adobe Illustrator and am also literate in Photoshop and InDesign. After my time at Coventry University comes to an end I would like to pursue a career in freelance illustration and also continue to be an exhibiting artist.
