Artist Spotlight: Enya Todd
Artist Spotlight: Enya Todd
Now based in Bath, Enya is originally from Macau, though she has spent much of her career in London. With a background in packaging design, her love of illustration drove her towards painting food and she’s inspired by the chefs and patisserie artists who make treats she paints. Following her BA in Graphic Design, Enya earned a Masters in Design Management from the London College of Communication in 2011.
With a fluid, expressive style, there’s a touch of Impressionism about Enya’s work as she deftly encourages her colours to bleed into the paper just the right amount. A strong focus on key details makes each piece realistic – essential when depicting complex foods.
