Ailie Busby
Biography
Ailie Busby is an illustrator living with her family in the North East of England.
She loves dogs, lions, cycling, trees, violet creams, orange pencils, knitted toys and listening to The Archers.
Quite a number of years ago, Ailie studied Graphic Design, and then specialized in Illustration at Cambridge School of Art. Ailie uses a mixed‑media approach to her work — including a combination of acrylic paint and pencils mixed with collage and Photoshop.
Many things influence her work: nature and animals are a constant inspiration, plus 1950s and 60s children’s books, pattern and color. Ailie is best known for her colorful pre‑school and novelty formats.
