Who Am I?


I'm Dannee Loosley, a 21 year old student studying Illustration at Southampton Solent University and I am a crazy bird lady.

All things pink and fluffy influence me, as well as rainbows, bunnies, and unicorns. Overall, I think we can safely say I'm pretty girly.

On a more serious note, I am heavily influenced by music. Especially ambient music or classical music, music that doesn't have lyrics so my drawings depend on the mood of the song. A particular music artist that I love is M83. I'm also influenced a lot by my friends and by animals.

One of my favourite illustrators is Michael Foreman as I love his traditional styled drawings, and have grown up reading his books as a child.



I've also recently come across Kira Nichols and her blog. She makes colourful crafty bits and pieces, a lot of them based on birds as well. I think I will be easily influenced by her creations. You can see her stuff at http://www.oopsicraftmypants.com.


I like working with fabrics, and also sewing and stitching. I feel my work in this media is normally my strongest. I also like painting, sketching, line drawing and collage.
