Welcome to Caroline J Bishop.com!
I am an illustrator with a broad range of interests using multi-media and
printing techniques to produce images. My experience covers a number of different
areas, which include children’s book illustration, editorial design, bookcovers
and greetings cards.
I enjoy the conceptual challenge of editorial illustration to create design solutions. This can involve the playful use of text, be it handwritten, calligraphic or digitally produced.
Writing and illustrating my own children’s books and poems, is also of particular
interest, looking with a humorous eye at the everyday happenings of family
life. My aim is also to encourage children in more difficult circumstances
by addressing some of the social issues and pressures they may have to face.
I attempt to tackle the serious nature of some of these by balancing the poignancy
of the issues with a lighthearted and uplifting approach.
I have an honours degree in Illustration from NEWI, Wrexham, a degree in PE and History, and a Post Graduate Certificate in Education
