Babitt is an illustrator, artist and writer from Sheffield, UK where they live with their family, cat and dog. They enjoy using graphic shapes and lines, craft and layering, often working with cross-stitch, paper-cutting or a combination of acrylic, pencil crayon and laser-cut board to create their work. Exploring visual journeys, narratives and obscure corners of the countryside, their work is informed by roaming the Peak District, peering at creatures and following rivers to their sources.
