Sadie is an illustrator based in South Wales whose work is deeply rooted in symbolism. Regardless of the subject matter, they strive to create engaging illustrations with depth and meaning, prioritizing visual storytelling. Much of their inspiration comes from song lyrics and album themes, with music serving as an essential escape that fuels their creativity, especially during projects.
