Zoe is very talented girl that she has worked for famous brands and even know she is still getting invitation from more of these famous brands. She has worked for newspaper agency "The Times". She has done a great work that she has covered a double page spread in the times.

The part they have covered in The Times newspaper is the fashion section. She has done a lot of architecture drawings using a pen to add a special effect to the page. The colors she have used is mostly black and Pink, which both of them goes really well together. The reason she did pink is because she is designing a double page targeting at mostly young girls.

Zoe has worked for more then one famous brands. She has also worked in famous brands such as Top Shop

Zoe's drawings seems really interesting and eye catching because the bulkiness of the pen and the way she has used this features, just pulls the users attention. The way she has used felt tips makes the image look more sketchy and more unrealistic but still pulls the audiences attention. If I genuinely saw her work in a newspaper or magazine, it would definitely pull my attention to look at the page more carefully.
 
For example the image on the right looks so sketchy, especially the purple bits. It doesn't look perfect but still looks interesting. The waves stands out, it can be seen clearly the way she has coloured and toned the drawing which adds its special effect.
