About
Daisy Wynter is an illustrator and writer who loves creating absurd and funny stories, often inspired by memories from her own childhood.
Working as a cheesemonger and chef for many years has also fed into her illustration: the two main characters created in her MA work this year were an obnoxiously large turnip, and a valiant sandwich. Her dream is to work on a recipe book or food encyclopedia for children.
She loves drawing from life, and spends happy mornings drawing in local food markets, cafes and public transport. She also enjoys incorporating printmaking into her work, often using screen-printing and linocuts in her illustrations.
Since finishing the MA she has been developing a new picture book about an escape-artist hamster named Olive Oil, and also on a series of posters for schools that aim to support students returning after lockdown.
