Megan Metcalf is a multidisciplinary artist and live event illustrator based in Margate, Kent. A graduate of Central Saint Martins, she works primarily as a live event illustrator - covering weddings, brand activations, corporate conferences, and product launches - and maintains a parallel practice in expressive illustration and surface-facing print work. Her Instagram biography references a forthcoming 22 Card Deck available for pre-order.

Metcalf's work is expressive and intuitive, rooted in real-time observation of place and people. Her style is lively and instantly recognisable, characterised by a loose, characterful line quality. The portfolio features both illustrative pattern work and expressive figurative compositions across a range of colour and surface applications.

Works in fine pen and ink and expressive watercolour. Creates 2-4 illustrations per hour in live event contexts; studio work applies watercolour washes to ink finishes. Capable of working at multiple scales including bespoke crockery, murals, and painted tablecloths.

Primary practice: live event illustration for weddings, corporate events, conferences, product launches, and brand activations. Surface print and pattern capability evidenced in selected images. No documented surface pattern brand clients at this time.

Trained at Central Saint Martins, London. Over 10 years as a professional fine artist and illustrator; over 7 years as a live event illustrator. Now based in Margate, Kent.

The portfolio features illustrated surface patterns and expressive compositions with potential for application across lifestyle surfaces. The pattern register spans figurative and ornamental work in an expressive, hand-led style.
