I have worked with Lucie for over 10 years within children's publishing, she is my go-to person for artist commisisons – incredibly focussed, adept, handles any challenge, 100% reliable, genuine and very responsive, a fantastic communicator. She is full of insight, knows her artists inside out and I value her suggestions greatly. I cannot recommend working with her highly enough!

What a joy it is to be working with Lucie, she has been a guiding light for me as an illustrator. She is encouraging and insightful and she has been just the push I needed to take my creativity further. With her eye for detail and fun sparky ideas, I would highly recommend anybody who wants a mentor to have the lovely Lucie in their corner.

As a publisher of high-quality children's books of some 50+ years' standing, we're delighted to be working with Lucie again. She brings a fierce professionalism and super-cheerful energy to the table, together with a keen eye for fresh and exciting ideas. She develops and represents her creatives with care, professionalism and real pride. Oh, and she brings cake.

Lucie Luddington is the most enthusiastic, experienced professional I know. She’s passionate about the business and right now we need Luddington Creative. She’s why I’m so looking forward to being represented by her.
Charles
I had a portfolio review with Lucie and it was extremely helpful. I tried a few new things and wanted to get feedback on how best to progress. Lucie's feedback was spot on. She has a fantastic eye and gave me very useful advice for my illustration. I felt very motivated and inspired. I feel very grateful for it and can only highly recommend it.
Heike
Lucie is hugely positive and constructive. She takes time and care to understand your strengths; and is then clear and imaginative with her suggestions and thoughts about how best to proceed. She listens carefully (a rare gift) and strikes the right balance of realism with encouragement. I highly recommend her.
Paul
Sometimes, as an illustrator, it can feel a bit like you’re out at sea by yourself and you’ve not got a paddle, a map or anything. It can feel really overwhelming sometimes. Since I’ve been having reviews with Lucie I feel so much better. The advice I have been given has been actively helping my daily practice and my future career goals.
Hannah
Lucie is so kind, knowledgeable and really insightful. I was so nervous for our first portfolio review but I was put completely at ease and left feeling really positive with a plan of what I could do to grow my practice. I feel extremely lucky to have found Luddington creative and would highly recommend their coaching and portfolio reviews.
Eleanor
I feel very lucky to have found Lucie! She has been supportive and has helped me find my confidence as an illustrator. I highly recommend her portfolio reviews to anyone wanting some honest feedback.
