Evie Grace Caldwell

I am a freelance Illustrator and Graphic Designer based in Bristol. 

I have a base of clients from industries including performance arts, the music industry, renewable energy, food/drink and the third and statutory sectors. I work with clients to develop a brief, I liaise with them throughout the project duration, and deliver work to a timeline, budget & schedule. I have worked with clients such as Guinness, the Royal Scottish Geographic Society (RSGS), WECIL (West of England Centre for Inclusive Living), Dance Base Edinburgh, Caskshare, Purist Gin, Creative Dundee & many more. I also have a range of experiencing freelancing for Bristol based design studio Garrett Creative.

The work I create often has a socially conscious message, and I am particularly interested in telling stories through my designs and communicating positive messages, frequently about difficult topics. I approach sharing stories in a new, positive, and often humorous way. My work is bright, colourful and quirky, and is supported by bold, witty and honest concepts. My approach is adaptable and relatable, ranging from a simple stand out design surrounded by white space, to a busy scene with extensive detail. My work has been featured in publications & social media campaigns such as Coast Magazine, The Great Outdoors Magazine and GreenPeace UK.

As an imaginative and motivated creative I endeavour to use my skills to create positive change and spark conversation. I have a deep passion for illustration, digital design, for environmental and social storytelling, and pride myself in creating thought-provoking artwork and graphics. My approach to my work is to share facts and stories through illustrations and designs with bold, witty and honest concepts. I imagine a world where things are better. When creating a design I aim to make something so eye-catching that looking is unavoidable.

I have 3+ years of experience in the freelance design industry. I recently was awarded Scotland's Young Designer of the Year 2023 at the prestigious Scottish Design Awards.
