The Drawing Arm

The Crowd Goes WIld!

No sooner did we welcome Sydney-based graphic artist and illustrator, Aley Wild, to The Drawing Arm, did the briefs for her start rolling in. We’ve just finished up a fun project with CommBank, which we’ll be able to share with you in the not-too-distant. In the meantime, let’s take a look at Aley’s impressive body of work! Signature moves: Bright palettes, energetic shapes, optimistic notes!

Aley works across hand-drawn product illustration, branding, murals, installations, packaging, and surface pattern design. Her personal work explores authentic positivity, cosmic wonder, and feminine power.

Aley hasa BFA in Illustration from the Rhode Island School of Design, and she grew up between free-spirited San Francisco and easy-breezy Sydney. Before pursuing illustration full-time, Aley travelled through 25 countries, working along the way as a mushroom farmer, homesteader, and festival builder. She is a proud queer woman pursuing community, learning and joy.
