Chloe Joyce’s Illustrations are in True Millenial Fashion

Chloe Joyce illustrates the modern woman, going about doing her thing. Situated mostly in their homes, and in true millennial fashion, her women are engulfed by plants. The overall vibe is bright, green, and unapologetic. , so needless to say, we’re all for it.

And naturally, we’re not alone. With more than 22k followers on Instagram, Joyce has amassed quite a cult following. Based in Sydney, she works full time as an illustrator and graphic designer. But oddly enough, she took to drawing only at the age of 24.

“My sister is an artist, but it’s not something I ever really though of doing,” she admitted in an interview with Twenty Something Humans. “I enjoyed it, but always thought of it as her ‘thing’. I was working in fashion and really thought I would go into designing, but the fashion industry wasn’t for me, so I decided to do a design fundamentals course and boom, I’m an illustrator!”

Her inspiration much like her drawing herself is found in gardening and nature. “I like going for a walk or a swim (salt water is the cure for EVERYTHING!) but also just lounging around,” she says. “It’s amazing how creative you can be if you just give yourself some time to be lazy!”

“I always feel super creative when I’m travelling,” adds Joyce. “Being around new cultures and landscapes is incredibly invigorating and can really shake up how you view your work. When you’re working full time in a creative industry, it’s easy to get tunnel vision and start recycling ideas. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but I do think that getting outside of your comfort zone can be a nice creative.”
