Daniel bunting

Here's Daniel's finished bunting. A little lighthouse and beach hut join the boat to make it all nautical. Perhaps I should do some bunting thats just nautical themed and no name, with boats, lighthouses and beach huts?? maybe just some beach huts??

Ladybirds and parcels

Just found these whilst rummaging through my hard drive. I was going to come up with lots of different bugs and then do something with them but didn't get any further....meet Lily :)

Florals


I'm working on a packaging project at the moment, which I can't actually show you but I found an effect that I put on my artwork that makes it look very different that I'm not using. I quite liked the affect it gave but not sure I could find it again. :)

Jack bunting

Here's Jacks bunting all finished for Lizzie.
I'm loving working on all the more nautical themed orders that are coming in.


Watch this space for more over the next week or so.

***New Product- Padded Words

I've had this little idea around for a while but not had chance to actually get to making the first prototype. So here it is....what do you think??
They will be available to custom design so I can make them in varying shapes and sizes and colour themes ofcourse with a name or special words embellished on the front.


CJ'S bunting

Here's CJ's bunting that is off to Australia, so excited to have a piece of my work going so far :) Thank you Angela for the lovely commission. Angela wanted no bows so it was lovely buttons all the way. She sent me photos of the room it was going in and a bit of a brief which stated Route 66 and she also loved the camper vans so heres the result. Hope you love it as much as I enjoyed making it.




Daniel's Heart

I had this little commission to make something special for their friends new baby. I put his name and the date of the little new arrival on one side and a D with a pretty bow on the back. It's got lavender mixed in with the stuffing so it smells lovely too. Approx size is 18 x 10 cm.
What do you think.....

A few random christmas illustrations...

A few random bits a pieces I've done before. Some more recent than others.
These two below are well worked into artworks, was another persons original artwork which I can't remember the name...sorry I did some photoshop magic on and they got printed as wrapping paper and I think the cards and crackers also got printed. John Lewis if I remember rightly.



Peacock Feathers

I worked on this the other week, really like the colours and the simplicity of it.

Pattern

Another pattern that was being worked on and abandoned as it wasn't quite right.

Patterns and 3 kings

I've been working on christmas and party illustrations and graphics for the last couple of weeks but unfortunately I can't show you what I've been working on, which is frustrating as I'm really pleased with lots of it. But that's the way it is as a consolation here's a little peak at some rejects that aren't right for the briefs oh and a snippet of some 3 kings that I was really pleased with. (Sorry the photos aren't great though)

I'll add more to the rejects so you get some idea of what I've been doing.
