ABOUT | samiraharris

Samira Harris is a fine artist based in the UK. Since achieving a BA Honours in Drawing from the prestigious University of the Arts London in 2002 she has had numerous exhibitions, sold work internationally and worked on arts commissions for clients such as Samsung, Glastonbury Festival, Dal Sterling Group, myhotel chain and Festival Republic.

After working on a book called 'The Magic of Drawing' with Harry Potter illustrator Cliff Wright she began to receive more illustration based commissions and enjoyed using her skills and versatility to develop a range of illustration styles to perfectly suit each project. However over time her unique style developed combining the bright colours and details children love.

Prolifically creative and highly motivated, in addition to her art commissions and facilitating an arts venue called Zu Studios, she started to write her own stories. After receiving positive feedback performing these stories in schools and festivals, she created a rhyming childrens' book called Freddie Fox. This story became a theatrical production, with her illustrations projected in a 360 degree cinematic dome with full musical soundtrack and has had sell out tours around various festivals in the UK since 2013.
