Lindsey was born and brought up in Dundee, Scotland. She studied Printed Textiles at the University of Dundee before going on to take an MA in Textiles at Winchester School Of Art. Much of her work was inspired by various trips abroad, especially to Amsterdam, Prague, New York and Toronto. Another inspiration was "anything with a smiley face!". Lindsey enjoyed art that was "expressive and quirky" and this can be seen in her own work. Lindsey is busy as a part time lecturer in Printed Textiles at the University of Dundee as well as being a freelance textile designer with commissions from Habitat, Marks & Spencers and BHS among others. More recently, Lindsey has turned her talents to writing and illustrating children's books. Her books about Poppy and Max and Pinky and Blue are perfect first books for children.

Lindsey teamed up with James Mayhew to produce the delightful picture book, Who Wants a Dragon? Her enchanting illustrations bring to life a lost baby dragon, alone in the night, who just wants someone to love him... but who will? The Heffalump Grump is her latest picture book for Orchard. Lindsey lives in Dundee.

"Simple text and gently humorous illustrations make this book perfect for repeated reading" - Junior
