I’m Laura Barnard, an illustrator living in Devizes, Wiltshire in the UK. I create colourful illustrated maps that combine tiny details, quirky buildings and hand-drawn typography along with a well-thought-out hierarchy of information.

In my spare time you can find me painting, exploring the local area on foot, planting up our little garden and reading an awful lot of books.

I’ve been a freelance illustrator for more than a decade, having previously worked in the world of graphic design, project management and print production. Illustration clients over the years have included The British Council, RIBA Journal, Populous, Persil, HP, Hello! magazine, Country Living magazine, Beam Global, Sainsbury’s, BMW, Chipotle, Monotype, Ernst & Young, London Fashion Week and the NHS.

If you’re looking for an experienced, reliable and detail-conscious illustrator to help your project run smoothly, drop me a line. My studio hours are Monday to Thursday, 9-4.
