Happy avocados!

I was hired to design a print for a new babywear company called Tiny Blooms. The print features hand painted cute smiley avocados. I have to say, I am a sucker for an avocado! I even eat them on their own with a spoon (topped with some salt and pepper of course). So as you can imagine, I loved creating this design.

See are some images showing the design and how it looks on the final product. I am really happy with how it’s turned out.

Prints for packaging

print design

I’ve been designing some prints for a small company called ‘UniOrganics’ that has just started up in the USA. I was asked to design a surface pattern for the packaging as well as the print for the first product. Another task was to draw some diagrams showing how to use the product, (pictured below).

Its the first time I’ve designed a surface pattern for packaging. I’m looking forward to exploring this more and looking into designing patterns for stationary and gifts.

I’ve included a small video below of the product.

Have a great day!

A design for the trees

print design

When I was working as an in-house print designer for Kite, I designed a print inspired by trees local to the head office in Dorset. Kite teamed up with The Tree Council and I got to plant some trees which was a great day out and a fun project to be a part of. The products that were created through this collaboration raised money for this charity.

Wall mural progress

Paintings

Here are some pictures of the 18ft wall mural that I finished last week! So happy with how it turned out.

The height was definitely something to get used to, I had to use scaffolding and make sure I was keeping an eye on where I was putting my feet throughout the process!

It was a big challenge but also very exciting and rewarding. I hope I get to do this again one day.

What a lovely idea – bringing the outside in. Interior design is a lot of fun.

Once the room is furnished and decorated, I will be putting some more pictures up, so watch this space!

18ft Wall Mural

Paintings

I’m currently painting a wall mural! I’ve never been asked to paint one this big so it’s been an exciting challenge so far. I am absolutely loving it though! There are 2 walls that I’m painting, the tallest being 18ft! I’ve had to work on a scaffolding with 2 platforms. See how I’m progressing in the pics, and watch this space as I’ll be posting the finished piece soon!
