Glasgow-based, award-winning illustrator, author and animator, Lesley Barnes is a hugely talented individual. We’re so in love with her playful, colourful illustrations. Her clients have included Belle & Sebastian, Bestival, Cheltenham Jazz Festival, Glasgow Film Festival, Puffin Classics, the Museum of childhood and the V&A.

Lesley sells a small selection of her work – prints and cards – in her Etsy shop. Her books, and others that she’s illustrated, are available from Amazon and Hive (who give local bookshops a percentage of every single order they receive).

Have a look at this short video from a few years ago which showcases a number of Lesley’s designs.
