Helen Wallbridge

Hello I’m Emma and I’m a Graphic Recorder and Illustrator.

I create hand drawn visuals to capture content and tell stories – it’s my job to visualise your content so people love it, remember it, and keep coming back to it.

As a Graphic Recorder I draw live at events and meetings to capture the key ideas and outcomes.

As an Illustrator I create hand drawn digital images to tell stories and explain complex information.

My work is, colourful, fun and creative. It starts conversations and helps connect ideas and people. It’s mind-catching and memorable. It’s eye-catching, printable and easily shareable.

I’m an artist and creative producer with a wealth of experience of founding arts ventures and running arts venues, programmes, events, exhibitions and festivals – with a focus on fun and innovative approaches to animating underused spaces.

Most recently I’ve had the privilege of setting up Saint John’s Arts’ Programme, collaborating with a large Education Trust to provide new exciting opportunities for young people to get involved in the arts in Gosport.

I’ve also worked as Producer for Journeys Festival International, and held previous roles at ArtSpace Portsmouth, Liverpool Biennial and founded The Royal Standard (gallery, studios and social workspace), and Mighty Oak Creative Agency.

Linocut printmaker based in Gosport. Focused on nature connectedness and creative practice in the natural environment.
