Jacquie Boyd

Based in England, Jacquie Boyd scribbled and strummed her way through a tomboyish and happy childhood in the north east, drawing, writing and playing guitar, but always happiest when she could find her own space.

She chose Graphic Design as her first route at art college in Newcastle in the mid 80s purely because it looked like the best route to being able to draw for a living. She couldn’t ever envisage herself doing anything else ( apart from being a rock and roll star and she quickly realised she was a much better artist than she was a guitarist!)

She specialises in illustration & fuses retro teenage comics with Pop Art where speech bubbles & acrylic on canvas form the basis of her work.
