Ally Marie

Ally grew up in a creative family who both influenced and supported her in her love of art. Colouring in books and jigsaws were her thing. Ally’s creative journey has been an adventure, staring out as an apprentice furniture maker, then drawing room interiors and onto a career as a greetings card illustrator. Reading such beautifully illustrated books each night to her two children affirmed her love of book illustration. Nowadays she can be found painting and drawing in her home studio in Leicestershire. She adores walks in the surrounding countryside, drawing with her children and the first coffee of the morning. The seaside is her happy place.
