Scouse Owl & Fly Fox

'Scouse Owl' and 'Fly fox' are two members of my new collection centred around animals  and inspired by Liverpool's people and style.
'Scouse Owl' is a Liverpool bird getting ready for her night on the town, eating discarded kebabs left by drunken revellers on their own nights out. She wants to look her best, as obviously there is a lot of competition with other Liverpool birds...
'Fly fox' is a dapper fellow, always suited and booted and dressed to impress. He takes his fashion cues from Mad Men's Don Draper, and is never seen out without his trademark  specs. He's not averse to scoffing the odd cheeky kebab either when he thinks no one is looking.

Wait & See

Wait & See is based on moths and nature and using natural materials such as wool, cotton, tweed, silk, paper etc.

I have so far printed tote bags, A3 prints and cushions, though I am currently working on expanding the range so... Wait & See.

It is currently stocked in 'Landbaby at the Bluecoat' in Liverpool, which can be found on Facebook.

Craft fair - Collage picture frames

 

These collage photo frames are made from my own photographs and illustrations. I like to reuse and recycle wherever possible, and after my years of being an art student I have a lot of photocopies of my drawings, as well as photos of nature that I took as an A-level student. I decided that they would make a great collage frame for photos, and also it's a good way to use these previously useless bits of paper and photos!

They look lovely and it is a unique way to display your favourite photos.

All of my work is for sale, please contact me of you are interested. I also take orders.

Craft fair - Cushions

These are the cushions I printed for the Christmas craft fair at the Kazimier in Liverpool, and they were my most popular item! I took some old and some new illustrations of mine and screen printed them onto wool and made cushions with a contrasting teal back. I had several designs, including: Man with a floating head, Bulldog with a mustache, Don't liberate me, Fortune teller, and Moths.

I will be making more of these for future craft fairs, and I will also be using new illustrations and colours... so watch this space!

All of my work is for sale, please contact me if your interested in buying. I also take orders.

Craft fair - 3D picture boxes

These are my 3D picture boxes, made out of frames I got from habitat when they were closing down. The depth of the frames suggested to me the idea of making these small picture boxes. They are all hand drawn and painted with watercolours. They look fantastic hung on the wall in this way, they are statement pieces and are very striking.
I made these for the Christmas craft fair in the Kazimier in Liverpool.

All items are for sale, please contact me if you are interested. I also take orders for work.

Saatchi Gallery Exhibition

This is the cabinet that was part of an exhibition on sustainable design at the Saatchi gallery. I unfortunately don't have many details, as I was away in India. I am still waiting for the information about it. It was on show for a week during October or November!
