About

I’m a Melbourne-based designer and illustrator and have been working in the fashion industry since graduating from university in the late 80’s.

After years of travelling the world and designing for some of Australia’s favourite fashion brands, I saw the light and now make illustration – my first love – my number one.

Besides keeping up with Patsyfox.com, I mix freelance design and illustration with teaching fashion illustration for design colleges and private clients, reporting on Melbourne inspirations for international website WGSN, and creating art for greeting cards & stationery. I’ve recently started a new line of Bridal Sketches, illustrating brides in their beautiful dresses, by commission.

I am a gun for hire, whose work can be found in print advertisements, fashion websites, brochures, invitations, design storyboard presentations, books, trend forecasting, greeting cards, and stationery.

Mantra?

I design-draw-write-photograph, therefore I am.
