Clair Rossiter is an illustrator currently based just outside of London, and graduated from Falmouth University in 2014. She works mainly in gouache, ink and colouring pencils, before finishing her work digitally. Clair always seeks to create a sense of joy in her work through wobbly lines and imperfections. She also has a special talent for making a mess, and her desk is usually a precarious balancing act of paint pots and sketchbooks. When not drawing, Clair can often be found reading picture books and eating cheese.
Clair Rossiter is an illustrator based in Sutton, Greater London. She graduated from Falmouth University in 2014 and has freelanced ever since, working on a range of licensing, children’s publishing and editorial projects.
