Laura Quinn Harris gained a BA (Hons) in scientific and natural history illustration from Blackpool and the Fylde School of Art and Design. Her work has been selected for the Artists & Illustrators Artists of the Year exhibition (2016 and 2017) and she was a finalist in the BBC Wildlife Artist of the Year competition (2010 and 2013).
The portrait is of the artist’s friend, Jessica. Quinn Harris says: ‘The sitting took place in my bedroom at home, as I wanted the patterned wallpaper to provide an interesting decorative backdrop.’ The artist made sketches and reference photographs before completing the portrait in her studio over the next five months.
