Caroline Pedler

Hello, I'm Caroline Pedler, an artist, illustrator, and educator living in Cornwall. With a strong connection to the colors and textures of where I grew up, my illustrative journey spans over three decades, shaping a visual language that marries analog techniques with digital finesse. What sets me apart is my transition from a commercial style to a more personally resonant approach, fueling my passion for storytelling and crafting emotionally resonant characters that reflect the emotion, humour, and joy of human experience.

My artistic outputs have garnered international acclaim, from winning awards in international exhibitions to having my work featured in world renowned showcases. Whether collaborating with global brands like Dulux (Azko Nobel) or creating visuals for world leading change makers like Exeter University, I infuse each project with creativity, professionalism, and a keen eye for detail. My eclectic portfolio, spanning picture books published in numerous languages to charity works and global climate solutions, reflects a dedication to impactful storytelling and visual narratives that captivate, inspire and positively impact.

Nature, swimming in the sea, and treasured moments with loved ones fuel my creativity, shaping stories that reflect my neurodivergence and hypersensitivities. Drawing inspiration from my surroundings, I infuse warmth, humor, and emotional depth into my work, aiming to connect with readers on a deeply personal level. With a heartwarming blend of kindness, humor, and visual storytelling, I strive to craft narratives that not only entertain but also spark positive actions and resonate with audiences worldwide.
