York live illustrator
for conferences and events
Hello! I’m Vicky Hughes, and provide illustration services in York and across Yorkshire. I work mostly as a freelance live illustrator, and also offer custom illustrations, animated explainer videos, and illustrated infographics, all designed to transform complex information into engaging visual narratives.
Illustration services
I offer a range of illustration services to meet the unique needs of my clients, both in York and across the UK. Take a look below to find out more!
Live illustration / graphic recording
Live scribing and graphic recording services that capture the essence of meetings, events, and conferences. Benefits include transforming spoken content into visual summaries, enhancing audience engagement and facilitating better understanding.
Custom illustration
I can help you by creating icons or illustrations for marketing campaigns, gif illustrations branding, magazines, reports or guidebooks.
Animated explainer videos
Explainer animations simplify complex concepts into easily digestible visual content. These videos are perfect for educational content or training videos, especially if you’ve got sensitive content and would rather avoid the use of video.
Illustrated infographics
From one-page presentations to infographic visual strategies and mind map-style explorations, I illustrate visual narratives that help communicate your message or goals.

About Vicky Hughes
Based in Yorkshire, I have a diverse background that has helped build my approach to illustration. My career journey includes experience as a civil servant in Westminster and roles in startups in Shoreditch. With my history as a data analyst, I love to bring a keen eye for detail, logic, and thorough research to every project. I’ve also studied illustration at Camberwell College of Arts. This career journey has led me to build a love for the power of information-based illustration!
