Hey!

My name is Ruby Tompkins and I am an illustrator specialised in painting, drawing and animation, based in Liverpool. My home town is St Albans, Hertfordshire which is just north of London.

I enjoy working with bright, vivid colours, however I do love the starkness of black and white. Capturing emotion in my work is vital to me, hence why I love portraits. I take inspiration from feelings highlighted by lockdown, social issues of the past and present and natural surroundings.
