I’m Holly, I live with my family in the beautiful village of Cosby in South Leicestershire, where I paint all my designs from my cosy home studio.
I’ve always found magic in quiet moments - paintbrush in hand, music playing softly, rain tapping at the window. My work is inspired by storybook illustration — a little nostalgic, a little whimsical, and full of the warmth of everyday moments.
When my daughter, Alix, was a toddler, I decided to follow my dream of becoming an illustrator. I spent three years teaching myself, experimenting with styles, and finding my place in the creative world. A mentorship with a leading illustration agency led me to greetings cards, and something just clicked.
Every card I create begins as a hand drawn or hand painted illustration. I’m especially drawn to creating characters - imagining their worlds, giving them personalities, and bringing them to life.
I’d love for you to be a part of our story…
I’m excited to keep adding to our growing collection and I’m always looking for lovely places to stock our cards.
In 2025, I proudly launched my wholesale business with 54 designs I’d poured my heart into.
Holly Fox Illustrates is my corner of the world — where I paint the things that make me happy and hope they make you smile too.
