Illustration

I am a Shrewsbury-based illustrator working under the name Lizzistration. My work celebrates the people, places and everyday landmarks that shape my life. As a proud Salopian, I draw inspiration from local architecture, pubs, sporting culture and family connections, capturing scenes that hold shared meaning within the community. Working digitally in Procreate, I build images through layered line and colour to create vibrant compositions that balance structure with spontaneity.

My illustrations reimagine familiar buildings and moments through bold colour palettes and transparent overlays, evoking collective memory while reflecting an evolving landscape. The work aims to feel both contemporary and nostalgic, offering a fresh perspective on places people think they know.

Alongside my full-time role as an art teacher, I continue to develop my practice from my home studio. I am currently exploring ways to translate my digital illustrations into print and clay-based outcomes, extending my imagery beyond paper while continuing to explore ideas of place, identity and community.
