About Me
Bio
Hello, I’m Megan Alderson, an NTU BA Illustration
graduate from Yorkshire. Moreover, a multimedia
illustrator who loves to create with a handmade
touch. I enjoy creating lavishly detailed little
worlds through strong theming and carefully
considered colour choices. Illustrations are
infused with my interest in both interior and
fashion design. A mix of mediums, textures and
patterns weave together to create engaging imagery.
The motifs of past eras often find their way into
my work, with a passion for the styles of the 1960s,
70s and 80s being ever-present.
