Melanie Armstrong

I’m a freelance artist / Illustrator living and working in Nottingham, England a graduate of Nottingham Trent University with a BA in Graphic Design. I love to create I use freehand techniques, often incorporating digital elements later in the process. I’m particularly fond of fine-liners, sketchbooks, coffee and my dog, my inspiration comes from everywhere, friends, music, architecture… it’s a combination of life, bad singing and on occasion dancing, I’m so glad I work at home but not sure, the neighbours would agree. Apart from needing a bigger scanner, life’s pretty good in 2009. In 2008, I exhibited work at the Lace Market Gallery Nottingham. I will be having my second joint show with Contemporary Artist Jacqueline Liddle again there from the 7th – 16th April 2009 Also I will be on the cover of this years Issue of Contact, New Talent out in May.
