Hi there! My name is Ulrike Mieke, I’m a freelance Illustrator and Designer from South Africa currently living in Brighton, UK with my husband. I love drawing people, places, animals and insects! Inspired by my childhood, and exploring themes around grief and mental health. My focus is on children's illustration however I love creating thoughtful and imaginative drawings for magazines, newspapers and stationery.
I am currently completing my MA in Illustration at Falmouth University. When I'm not drawing, I offer services in branding, private illustrations, window and mural painting and would love to host workshops! If you have a project in mind, I would love to get in touch!

Testimonials
I really enjoyed working with Ulrike. I was under the impression that I could do my branding and website myself since I had the time but I was sorely mistaken. Having an idea is one thing, but implementing it proved to be more a lot more difficult. I loved that Ulrike really listened to what I had in mind. She was able to bring in all the aspects I asked of her and to create a branding image I imagined but had no idea how to put in place. She took the time to get to know me and what exactly it was I was looking for and in what direction I wanted my business to go. She was always available for all my questions and flexible to any changes I wanted to make. Ulrike does a really great job and her prices are very reasonable. I hope to get the chance to work with her in the future.
