Hi, thanks for dropping by! I'm  a surface pattern designer and illustrator living in the sunny port city of Fremantle, Western Australia.

​​

I make art that's joyful, a bit whimsical, and full of colour and texture, using ink, nib pens, paintbrush and coloured pencils. Food, things I remember from my childhood and quirky shapes, colours and patterns found in animals and plants constantly inspire me to draw and paint. My designs have been seen on fabric, wallpaper, bags, home decor, swimwear and on the Patterned game on Apple Arcade. I'm a member of Illustrators for Hire, a group of curated professional freelancers from around the world  (you can click the blue box to check out my pages on their website). I am also part of the Creative Howl curated Surface Pattern Designer Directory, and have a portfolio of patterns ready to license directly through the website Patterned.com; find it here : https://patterned.com/claremartindesign/licensing

​

Apart from making art, I find these things essential for a happy life; being near the ocean, sea breezes, sunshine, walking, dark chocolate, travel, really great movies, lychee martinis and having a good laugh with friends and family as often as possible. Oh, and cake (or any kind of baked goods really).
