Hello, I'm Becca
The fox behind the teacup
I'm a freelance illustrator and graphic designer with a love for creating things that feel whimsical, thoughtful, bookish and just a little bit magical.
From my cosy studio library, I create everything from personalised illustrations and commissioned artwork to prints, stationery and creative designs — with a particular soft spot for turning people's ideas, memories and slightly wild requests into something they can actually hold in their hands.
When I'm not drawing or designing, you'll usually find me surrounded by books, armed with an unnecessarily large iced coffee… or completely distracted by whatever I'm currently reading on my Kindle.
Basically, I make lovely things for lovely people — and I absolutely love what I do.
Based in
United Kingdom 🇬🇧
How it all started
The Teacup Fox started quite simply — I loved making things.
What began as me creating illustrations and designs for the sheer enjoyment of it slowly turned into something much bigger. Friends asked me to make things. Then friends of friends did. One project became another, ideas kept coming, and somewhere along the way my little creative side project became The Teacup Fox.
At the heart of it, though, not much has changed.
I still get ridiculously excited when someone comes to me with an idea and says, "I don't know if this is possible, but…" Those are usually my favourite projects.
Whether I'm creating a sentimental family portrait, a piece of character artwork, a quirky print, an invitation, or something completely bespoke, I love taking an idea that exists in someone's head and turning it into something real.
I'm inspired by books, stories, people, memories and a healthy dose of whimsy, so you'll find a little bit of all of that woven through my work.
The Teacup Fox isn't about everything being perfectly polished or mass-produced. It's about creating things with personality — pieces that make you smile, mean something to you, or simply make your walls a little less boring.
And somehow, I now get to call all of that work.
Which still feels pretty brilliant. ❤️
What I believe in
Made with care
Every commission and every print gets my full attention. I don't rush, I don't cut corners, and I genuinely love what I make.
Whimsy is a feature
Life's too short for boring art. I lean into the magical, the playful, and the slightly unexpected — and I think that's what makes a piece memorable.
Communication first
I keep clients in the loop at every stage. No surprises, no radio silence — just honest, friendly updates from start to finish.
Quality over quantity
I take on a limited number of commissions at a time so every project gets the focus it deserves. Good things take time.
