Phillipa McDonnell is a London based artist and illustrator inspired by the natural and built world.​ She studied art history, and is a trained conservator and architectural paint researcher.

 

Phillipa believes that the art we surround ourselves with shows and shapes our identity and mindset, and should be just as unique and full of contrasts as we are.

 

Her style creates work that combines the delicate and the messy, the precise and the chaotic, the whimsical and the strong – simplistic yet each time you look at them you see something you might have missed before.

 

Pip Illustration began as birthday cards and presents for friends and family, and this custom approach still runs through its heart. Phillipa's true love will always be bringing other people's ideas to life, and creating work that is personal and fresh, and invites curiosity.
