Naomi Tipping

2022 QEST Scholar - Illustration
Nottinghamshire

Naomi is an illustrator who has worked for a wide variety of editorial and publishing for over 20 years. She loves to draw and experiment with texture and colour, to create fun and thoughtful illustrations. She has worked for clients including The Independent, The Daily Telegraph, John Lewis, Hodder and Owlet Press.

QEST funding will support Naomi in an MA in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art, allowing her to expand her skills further. She plans to write and illustrate her own books, and is especially keen to produce children’s books with a focus on children’s mental health and disabilities.

I am constantly inspired by the world around me. I carry a sketchbook with me at all times so I can capture every day happenings and interactions from my point of view. My favourite thing is a day out running, with my sketchbook, pencils and packed lunch in my backpack, stopping to draw every mile or so!
