Hello! I’m Seher (AKA Seri) and I am a mixed media illustrator based in the North East of England! All my pieces are painted in my gorgeous little home studio.

I’m going to be honest, if you told 15-year-old Seher that she’d be selling scribbly paintings instead of refined realistic illustrations like a ‘real’ artist, I think she’d be mortified. Although I hate the phrase, there’s no way to put it other than I’m a recovering perfectionist!!

Most of my work is inspired by events in my life whether it’s a card I made for my mum or a character developed from what I cooked for lunch - none of it is random!

Colorful abstract artwork with various shapes and words such as "MIGHTY" and "SHARK" written in black. It features vibrant colors including pink, yellow, green, blue, and red, with some doodle-like drawings and layered paint strokes.

I went to university to study Fashion Design and Marketing!

My final collection was inspired by my brother’s illustrations (I’m not a thief, he let me!) and it changed the way I illustrate forever.

Instead of being uptight and scared I just went for it and I loved every second that I was painting these big colourful paintings! I try to bring that joy into all of my paintings through colour + texture and of course scribbly scribbles :)

You can view that project here!

Whether you’re having a nosey at my portfolio, buying some goodies from my shop or simply having a browse I hope you enjoy!
