Anatomy & Botany Art

Argentinian artist Juan Gatti illustrates and combines together botany and anatomy drawings of the human body, plants, exotic birds and other various creatures. His illustrations are extremely intricate and I find them so interesting, I could look at them all day! There is something so elegant and peaceful about the human body and animals shown throughout his work. He is also known for his photography and graphic design and has worked with big names such as Zara, Karl Lagerfeld and Italian Vogue.

I Love Arts & Crafts

Crafty Sunday! I love being all cosy inside my warm house making lots of things, whilst its all rainy and cold outside. Perfect Sunday if you ask me!


Butterfly Drawer Liner

Here is the drawer liner I designed for Cherished by Charlotte. I actually did this a couple of months ago and I have only just got around to uploading it! Charlotte upcycles beautiful vintage furniture by hand painting and refinishing them in a quirky and unique style. She came up with this wonderful idea of having butterflies inside of the drawer so she got in touch with me to see if I could design something. So this is what I came up with and in the end it worked wonders. She also found a very pretty butterfly door pull to match! You can have a look at more of her stunning and unusual work on Etsy or check out her Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/CherishedByCharlotte/info



Monoprint & Acetate

Layering acetate over a monoprint works really well! I love the effect it gives.

Hand Drawn Pattern Repeat

This week I've been creating hand drawn pattern repeats for my current brief's theme 'folklore'. I'm probably going to develop these patterns further digitally and hopefully use them in my finished garment so keep your eyes peeled for the final outcome!
