Hand-drawn cards

So, while I haven't really done any proper illustration over the summer I have made a few rather stylish cards for friends and family. Here are a few of them:

New cards available at Watershed

Two more of my designs are now available to buy as cards from the Watershed shop:

Cider Apples

Storm in a Teacup

'Storm in a Teacup' is a design I came up with sometime last year as a bit of a fun experiment, so I was delighted that Watershed wanted to sell it as a card, which meant it would see the light of day! The 'Cider Apples' design is a new variation on a magazine cover I did for Inspired Times last year. So many people liked the design that I decided to produce a variation that would perhaps appeal to a broader audience (the original Inspired Times design was a bit too feminine to have mass appeal, I felt) and still keep the summery theme. The new design reminds me of summer festivals!

Drawn in Bristol were approached by Watershed and took care of ordering and printing the cards. I've been asked to produce 2 Christmas card designs to stock in Watershed and in the Drawn in Bristol shop so look out for those...

Storm Clouds

To get back into the swing of illustration after a bit of a summer break I had fun producing a cushion design for a competition run by website Ohh Deer, which specialises in lovely products festuring talented illustrators. My design wasn't selected as a winner but it did get me thinking about creating a range of weather-based interior design. Maybe a future project!
