About Me

Hi, I’m Mike Morrell, an illustrator and designer based in Sheffield, UK, on the edge of the beautiful Peak District.

My work blends traditional drawing techniques with digital colouring, resulting in a distinctive, characterful style. I’m drawn to bold colour palettes and expressive textures that bring energy and personality to every piece, often with a touch of humour woven in.

I create illustrations in a variety of sizes, making them adaptable for everything from editorial and publishing to prints and products.

I'm inspired by the timeless work of artists like David Gentleman and Edward Bawden, whose influence can often be seen in my approach to line, form, and storytelling.
