Phoebe Roze

Phoebe is an author and illustrator from the Scottish Highlands, currently based in Edinburgh.
Inspired by the landscape, creatures and folk stories of where she grew up, a strong sense of place and playfulness are important elements within her work. Phoebe uses an analog process, often combining cut paper with soft textures to create dynamic work which celebrates the charm of the handmade.

Since graduating with first class honours in Illustration, Phoebe has worked with many interesting organisations, including The Folio Society, Glasgow Children’s Hospital, and the V&A Dundee. In 2023 she was selected to participate in Picture Hooks, a highly regarded mentorship programme which pairs emerging illustrators with eminent and established illustrators to support their entry into the picture book industry.

When she isn’t drawing she can usually be found out cycling on her bike or with her nose in a good book.
