Robbie Cathro is an Illustrator & Storyteller living in Bristol, UK, where he creates fun and lively work from his desk in The Island Studios. He loves bright colours, limited palettes, atmospheric textures and layered characters. All of which are inspired from the animation he loves, the folk tales that he reads as well as the small stories you find in the corner of your day-to-day.He has worked with Airbnb, The Sunday Times, The Natural History Museum, Aquila Magazine and Anorak Magazine, where he has produced children’s activity spreads, editorial imagery and illustrated narratives. He loves nothing more than getting a brief through that covers a subject from all the way across the world - whether that’s the animals and inhabitants of Yosemite Park, Chinese Inventors, Victorian Ghosts or girls being rescued from towers by giant owls.
