Food Illustrations

I’ve been painting food illustrations, as I’m currently focusing on emailing cafes for design work/painted a-boards. As I often use pastels they add a bold whimsical feel to the food, I’ve always wondered how my style would reflect on different objects.

Illustrated Mugs & Notebooks

For my Etsy shop I put my illustrations onto mugs and notebooks, it’s wonderful to see my designs on actual objects. They both came out so well, I even added patterns onto the inside of the notebooks!

Cambridge Art Fairs

Before Christmas I did a few art fairs in Cambridge. They were really fun, I loved preparing my table with decorations. I love handmade things so created a lot myself including a few hundred hand-written business cards, which took some time but turned out lovely. Getting feedback on my products straight away was great, I learnt a lot about what customers preferred and pricing. I’m really excited to do more this year!

Moving to Cambridge

Last October we moved to Cambridge, it’s such a beautiful city and I’m really loving cycling everywhere. It was also our first time moving out, so i’ve enjoyed decorating out little flat. This inspired an illustration as all i’ve been looking at are dreamy interiors.

Cherry Reds A-Boards

Last summer I painted two a-boards for Cherry Reds cafe in Birmingham. I really enjoyed painting in a much bigger scale than I usually do. The colours really popped and looked so fun on the street. I hope I get to do a few more of theses!
