Jennifer May Mottram is a freelance designer based in the Midlands who joins the Designers for Hire Directory this week. After completing a Masters degree in Applied Arts (specialising in print and pattern for interiors) Jennifer started working in Marketing but is now going back into design and looking for commissions, licensing opportunities, and has just started making contact with a few agents to find the right representation for her work.
Most of Jennifer's designs are based on nature, in particular plants and flowers, but she has a very versatile hand and designs prints to suit various markets and subject areas.
Her work normally starts on paper, usually drawing in loose ink with a small paintbrush to give the base drawings character. Jennifer finds a brush more expressive and spontaneous than ink pens. She then digitally colours or tweaks her work in Illustrator, Photoshop or in Procreate, depending on which result she is aiming for.
Jennifer says she does keep track of trends and has regular trend reports sent to her, but doesn't force her work into any particular trends she finds just having the knowledge and being aware helps them naturally filter into her work. Website / Instagram
