"My name is Frank Morris and I’m a freelance Illustrator from North London, currently based in the fine city of Norwich. My passion is illustration and I take great enjoyment creating intricately detailed compositions, with a fine focus on traditional penmanship and line work. My work is inspired by nature, folk tales, Edwardian English fashion and literature as well as my day to day interactions with the world around me.

Another major passion in my life is football and having the opportunity to create this programme cover of Norwich City legend Roy McCrohan has been a great privilege. For this piece I have re-created a vintage portrait of McCrohan in my own style, incorporating my line drawing technique and including the club’s emblem of the canary, perched on top of the football."
