Pattern People e book

The lovely design studio, Pattern People are putting together an e book about surface pattern design and I'm pleased to say that two of my designs (shown above) have been selected! The book should be launched sometime in January, so I'll let you know when it is available to download. It will be well worth a look.

Save the date illustration

Well here it is... the first design for the wedding stationary I am illustrating, which I finished on friday. I can't wait to start working on the illustration for the invitation! My client was happy, so I'm happy!

New commission!

I've just started work on a very exciting commission for a private client! I'm illustrating all the stationary for their autumnal wedding and have been given quite an open brief, which is amazing. I'll keep you posted with my progress.

New business card!

I found the arrival of my new business cards a far more exciting experience than it probably should be!

Crafty illustration!

I've just finished this commission for Ministry of Craft a great local Manchester business that offers a whole array of craft course's. This poster is to promote their up and coming Christmas 'craftathons', which will get you in the festive mood whilst handcrafting some wonderful xmas goodies. My signature black linear style has been injected with some bold and bright colour to reflect the fun feel of the xmas season and Ministry of Craft itself. Hope you like it!

Blush boutique

A 9am start, a five hour journey and one service stop later and we made it down to Battle ( a lovely little town near Hastings) for the opening of Blush, a gorgeous boutique a friend of mine has just opened after a lot of hard work. The empty shell has been transformed into a feminine, vintage wonderland with its exposed beams, parquet floor, mirrored furniture and floral wallpaper. Of course I indulged in plenty of shopping to show my support! I'm pleased to say I created some illustrations for the shop that I debuted last week and I hope to show in situe once I get some good photographs.
