Freelance graphic designer working with businesses across the UK

Hello! I'm Ruth, a freelance graphic designer with over 20 years experience of creating visual story-telling for organisations of all shapes and sizes, from ambitious start-ups needing a brand identity from scratch, to established businesses wanting to refresh their look, to self published authors looking for an illustrator to bring their story to life.

I work remotely with clients across the UK and beyond to create visual solutions that tell your story with clarity and care - from logo design and brand identity, to print, packaging and illustration, from brochures and leaflets to book design.

Whatever your project my approach is always the same: to understand what makes you unique and bring that to life in a way that you'll love.

Have a look at some examples of my work, and do get in touch if you'd like to chat about your next project. I'd love to hear from you.

Thoughtful design created with you in mind.

What's new

I've just finished designing some products for The Orkney Museum shop, using exhibits and patterns from their exhibits as my inspiration. Exciting to see the final designs in print!

"The final merchandise have been so well received in the shop. Staff have praised the colour, design and how it makes the retail space more attractive and brighter. Customers regularly comment on how lovely and different they are, and they’ve quickly become a real point of interest.

We’ve definitely seen a positive impact on engagement and sales since launching them. I've enjoyed seeing customers try and decide between designs and end up buying both!"
