Abbie Barker
BA (Hons) Illustration
Hi! My name’s Abbie, and I’m a 22-year-old illustrator focusing on colour and portraiture. I work primarily digitally and have an interest in editorial illustration. My work is clean and precise but also explores textures within the rendering and line art. I would be excited to work with anyone, whether that be a commission or collaboration, and see my work out in the world.
During my time at NUA, I have developed many new skills and learned a lot about my practice and what I like to create. I was not proficient in digital illustration before I started in 2018, and now it is the medium I am most comfortable working with. I have learned how to present my work to an audience, take feedback and work with it, enhancing said work and making it the best it can be. Four years of Uni have entirely changed my outlook on myself and my art in a good way.
