Charlotte Trounce is an illustrator currently living in Edinburgh. Since graduating from University College Falmouth in 2011, she has developed a style of illustration that is highly personal and distinctive, while also offering the flexibility to adapt to a wide range of commissions and clients, spanning publishing and editorial, advertising, product design and corporate identities.
Working mostly in paint, Charlotte brings life and colour to the every day — often inspired by simple objects, as well as the people, landscapes and architecture that surround her.
