Bethan Welby

Bethan grew up in a big old house in the Nottinghamshire countryside, half a mile from the nearest road. She spent her days reading dusty books in the attic and filling sketchbooks with imagined stories and characters—not much has changed.

In 2019, she earned an MA in Children’s Book Illustration from Cambridge School of Art and now lives in Devon, where she blends hand-drawn and digital techniques to capture the magic of the illustrated books she loved as a child.

Bethan is a keen printmaker and holds printmaking and illustration classes in her home studio which she shares with a small, often smelly dog called Luna.
