I’m Astha, live event illustrator UK and fashion designer with a lifelong love for drawing, fashion and visual storytelling.

Trained as a fashion designer, I’ve spent over 12 years building and running my own clothing label, working closely with textiles, craftsmanship, colour and design. This experience has given me a deep understanding of fashion and an eye for detail, proportion, movement and personal style.

Today, I bring that experience into my work as a live illustrator, creating expressive, fashion-led illustrations of people and moments as they happen. From weddings and celebrations to luxury brand events and retail experiences, I capture the energy, individuality and style of each occasion in a way that becomes a lasting keepsake.

But my love for illustration goes far beyond events. I’m happiest with a sketchbook in hand, drawing people, places, architecture, fashion, interiors or simply something that catches my eye.

For me, illustration is about observing the world closely and turning fleeting moments into something you can keep.
