The Gleeful Dabbler

by Zoe Parker Illustration

Hello, I’m Zoe Parker, an artist and illustrator based in London.

I love to draw people, fashion, fabrics and clothes, jewellery and accessories. My background is in textile design, and so I love textures too, including textures in nature and landscapes.

Why is my website called The Gleeful Dabbler?

It’s a reference to Frida Kahlo who was patronisingly referred to as someone who gleefully dabbles in Art whilst her husband is a master mural painter. Blehh!

It’s also because I take Art seriously, and to differentiate myself from artists with the same name or similar names to me!

Event Illustration

I love to draw you and your guests, at a wedding, a party or a prom night. Or any special event! A fashion illustration is a beautiful memento to treasure.

Fashion Illustration

I create high quality, detailed drawings of clothes as they flatter the human figure. I specialise in rendering textures, layers and visual effects.
