Lily McAvenna

Diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at 6 weeks old, Lily has lived with this incurable disease her whole life. 
 

Lily, like other CF Warriors, spends every day completing physiotherapy to maintain her lung health and taking up to 40 tablets a day. Regular hospital appointments and admissions are a part of life for Lily, until the day when this disease has a cure. 

Lily McAvenna is a self-taught hyper-realistic illustrator, who creates mainly portraits using either a single pencil or black pen as her medium.

​

Her work displays careful attention to detail, texture, shade and light
