Now, this is a story all about how my life got flipped-turned upside down… 🙃
Hello, I'm Pearl Ivy, an Artist and Designer based in London. In 2015, I started doodling during my spare time while working at a creative agency. Those doodles evolved into fun greeting cards and gifts, with vibrant colours, puns, and humour. I created my online store and later expanded to stock my products around the globe. My mission is to spread joy and smiles, one design at a time. 👩🏾🎨💖-

A common question I get is about the black-and-white lines in my work, which I refer to as "highlights." These lines serve to emphasize specific features on the figure's face and body. Interestingly, I stumbled upon this style without any preconceived intentions, introducing it initially in my #BeyondTheGirl illustration series. Its continued presence has turned it into a distinctive and recognisable feature in my artistic style.
