Cara Ord Create

Hello!

I’m Cara, a passionate illustrator and designer with a deep love for books, dogs and well… all animals. I am a born and bred Aussie, a constant creator, fast paced thinker and inspired reader. I am a teacher, an artist and designer. I am here to help those I can, create beautiful things and design a brighter world.

 
 

So what is it all about …

My creative journey started from the age of 5 when I sat and watched my big brothers making comic books and knew that I wanted to draw for the rest of my life. From a child’s passion grew a womens career, after graduating first in my course in design at university I was unstoppable. All I want to do is create, and that is what this business is all about.

Cara Ord Create is three fold: illustration, design and education.

First and foremost will always be that little girl who loves to draw. I provide illustration services for children’s books and freelance commissions. My illustration is all about bringing joy and colour. Adding beauty and fun to the world.

Along with illustration I am an established designer, I have done work highlighting brands such as Audi and Fuji Film and I can do everything from business cards to books, events to websites. My design experience has spanned it all, starting in-house and branching out to agencies and freelance work. Check out some of my latest work here or get in touch if you have a project you would like to collaborate.

My work wouldn’t be worth it if I couldn’t share the wealth of knowledge I have gained and give back to the creative community. I share what I can in two ways. Firstly through my online classes. I have a new course up each month spanning all topics illustration and design. These can be found on my courses page. I also run weekly blogs on a plethora of creative topics, from advice on running a creative biz to mini tutorials and of course my inspiring illustrators highlight series.

As you can see creativity is my love and my life, and I am here to help you with any creative solution you may need. Enjoy spending some time perusing my little corner of the internet and feel free to get in touch using the form below if you would like to work with me.
