About


Ashleigh Bickerstaff Illustration - “Her Fantastical World of Colour!”

Ashleigh Bickerstaff Fine Artist & Illustrator from Belfast, now resides with her husband in the beautiful flat lands of North Holland in Purmerend, The Netherlands. She graduated with a (BA Hons) Fine Art Degree from the University of Ulster, Belfast School of Art in 2013. She currently works in her new studio space in Purmerend and hopes to continue creating on various Art Projects within the Local Community; Bespoke Commissions and to participate in future Art Fairs in the near future.

Ashleigh gladly welcomes Bespoke Commissions! Each is created in her quirky style. She engages her audience with narrative, surreal storytelling and magical motifs. The stories read to her as a little girl and a love for drawing at an early age has become a main symbolic reference, that she have fashioned into her own illustrated imagery, thus creating her own Unique Style.  

Within her Fine Art Practice, she uses a range of 2D media forms: collage, drawing and painting primarily in watercolours and inks. Bright use of colour plays a key role in her work. Her love of Travel too - inspires her Art Practice.
