About

About

Hailing from Vietnam, Alice Cao is a BA Illustration graduate of the Cambridge School of Art and holds an MA in Visual Communication from Birmingham City University. She enjoys the fantastical, the historical, and everything in-between. Currently based in the charming little medieval town of Shrewsbury, Shropshire with the looming threat of drowning in houseplants (‘tis a most serious predicament), Alice specialises in traditional hand-drawn illustration. Dip pens are her weapons and ink is her poison. She would take a stab at most things, though what comes out tends to take a turn for the unsettling and strange.
