Growing up, Izzy Burton spent most of her childhood hidden in her garden drawing animals from encyclopedias or writing stories and illustrating them. She went on to study Animation at Bournemouth University. She is now an illustrator and animator based in London and can be often found in coffee shops composing her next idea, following cute dogs around, or escaping to her family home to get lost in the landscapes that originally inspired her artwork.
