Tori Murphy

A wonderful eclectic artist for our latest feature. Tori Murphy is not only a fashion illustrator, but excels in textiles and fine art, with a great deal of fashion experience under her belt to boot. She uses her illustration expressively to bridge the various facets of her practice, allowing her to unite the different threads that run through her work with a more palatable fashion inspired style, that is at once gentle and fresh, with more than a hint of French style. Her work makes use of a well chosen palette and good structural composition, she uses a gamut of techniques in her massive range of work but each aspect of her creativity has the same gentle considered tone and hushed colours. She has a freer and more lively style in her illustration and it benefits from this by having that light hearted touch that perhaps she cannot accord herself in the more introspective field of fine art. If she continues building her work in this vein and allowing herself the freedom to create, I'm sure that the feeling of fun she experiences whilst illustrating will be equally shared with her viewers. Wishing her all the best in her many faceted creative life it's Tori Murphy!
