About me

Mekeisha ‘Meisha’ McDonald is a self-taught illustrator of Caribbean heritage and Pathways into Childrens publishing alum who lives in London. Her artwork explores her childhood obsessions, traditional tales, Black history and mythology.

​

Meisha enjoys creating artwork using ink, markers, water soluble mediums and digital mediums to weave the weird and wonderful worlds she dreams up. She has a passion for creating characters inspired by her heritage, incorporating natural and unconventional objects into their designs. Her sketchbooks are her playground.

​

Meisha’s dream is to create an illustrated young adult book and hopes that her work will inspire others to create too.
