Reviews
Enya Todd is a freelance illustrator from Macau, China. She first began experimenting with watercolors as a hobby at just six years old before eventually going on to study graphic design in her hometown. After graduating, Enya worked in advertising agencies in Shanghai and Macau before moving to London in 2011 to study a master's degree in design management at the London College of Communication. Inspired by a visit to Paris, she then started illustrating sweet treats which she posted on social media, and via her website a few years later.
Since then, Enya has worked on everything from packaging and logo design to editorial illustrations for clients like British Airways. She primarily works with watercolors, using the medium to celebrate the importance of food in everyday life, and continues to share her work with over 45K followers on Instagram.
