Pippa McManus Illustration Details
Pippa McManus is an iconic Australian fashion illustrator whose distinctive work has been shown around the world.At once mesmerising and whimsical, Pippa's illustrations are steeped in otherworldly beauty. She spins charcoal, acrylic and spray paint into imagined, intense figures that are festooned with flowers, fabulous fashion and dazzling jewels.Pippa has been working as an illustrator for over a decade. After studying fine arts, fashion and textile design in Perth, WA, she found her niche in fashion illustration – and she has never looked back. In 2012, Pippa won an international illustration competition held by London-based designer Mary Katrantzou (the prize was tickets to London Fashion Week – be still, Pip's fashion-loving heart!). After this, she came home to Perth and settled into commercial work with Scoop Magazine. For two years, she illustrated for teen publication Girlfriend; more recently, her work has featured in art and illustration books, including the cover of Somer Flaherty Tejwani's The Art of Fashion Illustration.Pippa held her first national solo show, ‘Gypset', at Friends of Leon gallery in Sydney in 2014. The show celebrated inclusivity, with a nod to traditional Moroccan, Spanish and Indian garb. All thirty of the intricate paintings – the culmination of eight months of work – sold out.Since then, her works have been exhibited all over the world, including in her favourite gallery, Modern Eden in San Francisco – where she has featured in three recent shows, including ‘Femme to Femme: The Feminine in Contemporary Art'. Closer to home, she is a featured artist at Studio 281 in Perth.Today, Pippa's work is found on public and private collections and murals throughout Perth, and she is a highly respected figure in both the fashion and art worlds.
