…my practice is ever-evolving and covers design and art direction via print, social media, staging and interiors through to illustration using both traditional and digital media
Tanya’s work features a variety of digital and traditional media, such as ink, linoleum and paint through watercolour, gouache and acrylic. Like the content she explores, the work is varied and changes accordingly dependent on a given project. It is mostly inspired by her surroundings in nature and social issues regarding gender, race, diversity, representation and inclusivity.
