Thea Carley: Winner of the Pepita Coffee in Partnership with Fatboy Slim x Cartoon Museum Competition
Thea Carley is the winner of the Pepita Coffee in partnership with Fatboy Slim x Cartoon Museum competition. A freelance writer, model, and illustrator turned children's author-illustrator, Thea returned to her first love, illustration, during lockdown. Drawing every day became a form of self-medication and soon grew into a dream of building a full career as an artist.
With no formal art training, Thea has built her skills through short courses, self-directed projects, and competitions like this one. Her winning design for the Pepita Coffee collectable art coffee tin features a colony of fun-loving, highly caffeinated beavers, characters she has returned to again and again over the years, even appearing on her wedding invitation.

"Honestly, this has been my favourite brief so far," Thea says. "The idea for the coffee tin came so naturally that I really enjoyed the process from start to finish. It's so lovely to be recognised for something that feels like a true reflection of who I am as an artist."
Thea is now working towards her goal of becoming an established author-illustrator in children's publishing.
