I'm Ellie, a young(ish) freelance portrait artist from Cambridgeshire, UK.

Not to sound cliché, but art is my absolute passion. I adore all forms of artistic expression. While I'm naturally drawn towards portraiture, I enjoy creating works around various different subjects and have experience using a variety of different mediums.

I'm also a bit of a nerd for art, video games, and all kinds of fantasy.

For as long as I can remember, I've had a passion for art - specifically painting. I can honestly say that art was my first love, closely followed by video games. I was the weird kid who would paint things and then talk your ear off about the latest video game she was playing in great detail.

I have also been converting my pixel art illustrations into cross-stitch patterns which can be found on my Etsy pattern shop (www.etsy.com/shop/PixelPleasureNerd)

Tools

As pixel art and portraiture are very different art styles, I use different software to create my artworks.

Portrait Art - Huion Kamvas GT-191 19.5 Inch Graphic Tablet, Clip Studio Paint

Pixel Art - iPad Pro 10.5-inch, Pixaki & Aseprite
