Hello, I’m Joanna Little! Deeply connected to nature, whimsical characters, and the magic of everyday life, I find inspiration in the Welsh countryside, where I was born and still live. Each piece I create is infused with texture and detail, which helps make my work feel truly unique. With a BA Hons in Illustration and over 12 years of experience as a greetings card illustrator, I’ve spent my career crafting cute characters and charming designs that have found their way into high street shops and supermarkets. Beyond the canvas, my sustainable lifestyle - complete with homegrown produce, a brood of hens, and life with my partner, daughter, and beloved border terrier - shapes both my art and my daily rhythm.

In my artistic journey, I find joy in the little details, adding texture and whimsy that help set my creations apart. Having honed my skills under tight deadlines and commercial pressures, my work reflects a keen eye for trends and market appeal. A proud moment in my career was receiving praise from a Publishing Director for a book project, which affirmed my ability to bring smiles and a sense of magic to the page. From sketchbook to digital creation, I love enriching my work with imagination, decorative elements, and vibrant colour palettes that connect with viewers and clients alike.

Away from the studio, I spend my time immersed in music and everyday adventures with my family and loyal dog. Nature, family, and creativity intertwine seamlessly in my life, fueling my quirky and dedicated approach to following my dreams. Whether I’m strolling through the woodlands or capturing the essence of life through art, my goal is always to inspire others to embrace their passions and infuse their days with the magic that surrounds us all.
