“I would have no hesitation in recommending Tolmeia for any of your illustration or creative design needs – she is very proactive, asks great questions and her designs were well above my expectation, both in terms of what I had envisaged and briefed but also in terms of delivering eye-catching and engaging illustrated gifs for Fairtrade’s Live Fair acquisition campaign. The creatives delivered both on the engagement and conversion objectives and helped towards getting the results we needed to achieve.”

“It's clear to see that Tolly's fantastically talented; happily, she's also great to work with! She was able to pick up our fairly esoteric, challenging brief and, whilst working remotely and dealing with our disrupted timescales because of COVID-19, make a really clean, eye-catching piece from it.”
