About Georgie

Georgie Stewart is an illustrator artist based in Devon. Georgie’s artworks combine her distinctive use of vivid colours with a natural drawing style to form evocative landscapes. Her illustrations, pulsating with joy, optimism, and a zest for life, are a testament to her creative philosophy.

Georgie spent most of 2022 travelling through Europe in her bright orange camper van Jaffa, a trip that culminated in an artist residency on the Greek island of Skopelos. During her time on the road, the seed of an idea was planted to reside by the sea upon returning home to the UK. Georgie now lives a cosy, quiet life in a cottage on the North Devon coast, where she spends most of her time in her garden shed studio, drawing inspiration from her surroundings.

With a master’s degree in Contemporary Art from Sotheby’s Institute of Art, Georgie went on to train for an MA in Illustration at Camberwell College of Art before continuing her studies at the Royal Drawing School in London. Georgie is represented worldwide by IllustrationX, and her work has been featured in British Vogue. In 2024, Georgie was selected as the winner for the Appledore Book Festival Art Prize. Her creative portfolio has included collaborations with prominent brands such as Apple, Crown Paints, Soho Press and Travel + Leisure magazine.
