Happy October! As the days grow shorter, the fearless wild swimmers pull on their bobble hats and take to the water, soaking in the colours of autumn much to the amusement of the native wildlife.

Part of that for me has been having a look at my designs in the wild. It's a great way to see how those designs have inspired others. Which in turn inspires me to create more and make more of what my customers desire. It's a wonderful, cyclical thing! Today on this blog I want to share some of my work in the wild, from snaps on the shop floor to photos Etsy customers have kindly sent me of their purchases in situ. Each image has filled me with joy and inspiration and I am grateful for every one of them. I love seeing what you do with my artwork, thank you so much!... The images above and below are from the Crafty Collective Bridgwater, a gift shop in the heart of our town. The way these have been displayed have made me very happy, the colours pop and greet you warmly as you walk into the shop... These next images below, have been kindly sent to me on customer reviews on my Etsy shop. There's much talk of the 'happy dance' handmade sellers make when they sell their creations. There has to be a whole new scale of 'happy dance' for when a maker sees images of their work in the wild being loved and used! Thank you so much for taking the time to send me these photos, I wish you could see how much they make me smile!... I hope you have enjoyed seeing my work in the wild and that
the colours inspire you this season. Wishing you a very lovely October! Best wishes,

Happy July! 'Beneath the shade of the weeping willows and between the yellow iris and reeds, a pair of young wild swimmers prepare to cool off in the shimmering river under the watchful eyes of their mother. What an 'otterly' lovely scene they make!'

Earlier this year I collaborated with the RNLI to put together a 2024 slim calendar which has been released this month. The calendar features 12 of my coastal themed illustrations. The image below links to the RNLI's online shop where you can order the calendar. With this blog post, I am sharing a closer look at each of the illustrations used for each month in the calendar... I hope you enjoyed a closed look at each of those illustrations and that they have got you in the mood for summer by the coast! Wishing you a very lovely July! All the best |
