Dominique Holmes – Designer

Fine Artist, designer and illustrator based in London with a passion for intricate lines and painstaking attention to detail.

Overview

I am a freelance artist, designer and illustrator whose work is inspired by my background in tattooing and studies in Fine Art. I offer work in two styles; traditional tattoo inspired images, and my signature detailed, mehndi influenced linear pattern technique, which can transform any subject from type to animals to portraits and beyond.I have worked with publishers including Penguin books, Puffin books, and Ryland, Peters and Smalls, alongside providing special and limited edition designs and collborations with a diverse range of brands including Levi's, Diesel, Snog, Bulleit, and Bill Amberg, and have provided illustrations for numerous independent zines and childrens books. In 2022 I designed the official 50p coin to commemorate 50 years of Pride for the Royal Mint. Between commissions I work on Fine Art projects and regularly exhibit internationally.
