Josephine Birch grew up in the South West of England, in a tiny terraced house with a garden. She always knew she wanted to work as an artist and with animals, so she studied at the Cambridge School of Art for Illustration and on the “Drawing Year” scholarship at The Royal Drawing School, London. Her Master of Arts in Children’s Book Illustration was obtained from the Cambridge School of Art. Through her studies, Josephine discovered that she could combine her love of art and animals by illustrating stories inspired by the natural world.
