Hope McConnell

Book for an event



Hope McConnell is an illustrator and designer based in the sunny Bay of Plenty who believes in bringing visual goodness to the world. She uses her skills to bring joy and understanding to others and loves to sprinkle her brand of pizzazz into every project. Drawing endless inspiration from her surroundings and the people that exist in them, everything she creates is a reflection of the lens she sees the world through, inspired by memories, feelings, relationships and the quirks of human life.
Hope works as a designer and illustrator in agencies and directly with clients. She is multi-disciplinary and loves to work in a bunch of different areas, bringing her special creative sauce to the table.
And when she’s not at her desk, she’s up a mountain, on a lake, scrounging for second-hand goods, or making and eating delicious food.
