Getting back to it

I cannot quite believe how long it has been since I got the pens out and actually sat down to draw. Getting an unexpected message with the opportunity to create some new work has given me the push I need to get back to doing what I love.

The work below has been created to a brief set around the theme of music and is (fingers crossed) being included in an exhibition at a music production company in London....

Print and Pattern Feature

I am over the moon to have been featured on my all-time favourite textile blog... PRINT AND PATTERN! I always go on the blog when searching for inspiration from some of the best surface and print designers in the industry. So to see my work on it is amazing!

Aimee King

The second of my New Designers Top 10 goes to Aimee King
With a very different style to the previous designer I have displayed, Aimee King uses extremely feminine watercolour paintings to produce beautiful floral prints which she then transfers onto fabrics for upholstery . 

New Designers Talent- Lisa Martin

Whilst at New Designers 2012, I had the privilege of exhibiting amongst the cream of this year's design graduates. I picked up a whole mass of business cards and have chosen a Top Ten to be featured in their own blog post...

First comes Lisa Martin

I absolutely love her quirky style that she uses to  create the cutest prints for the children's market.  See more of her fantastic work here... http://lisamartin-illustration.com/index.html

A new twist on the old....

I have played around with the motifs of some of my previous designs,  producing  entirely diffetent placement prints aimed for the greetings card market.

A Great British Summer

A little design tribute to say goodbye to Summer (well the little we saw of it anyway)...

About time too....

I have definitely been neglecting my blog over the last couple of months. Things have been hectic to say the least, getting used to life without university, Leeds and student lie-ins! But I have made a promise to myself to keep this blog in full-flow from this point onwards and to get myself back into full design swing!
