I’ve been looking after this handsome boy recently [left], which has involved going on some lovely long walks in our park and getting to know lots of other dog walkers whilst he rampages around like a lunatic. We got into a nice routine of this when he came to stay with us two weeks ago and I think he’s already made quite a name for himself even though he doesn’t actually live around here.

January Blues
To brighten up a dull January, we now have a range of six fabulous new giclée prints available in the shop. Designed in the style of a natural history poster with the name of each butterfly underneath and printed on archival quality, crisp white paper with intense, velvety colours.
Framing ideas and advice
If you were lucky enough to receive a print or some original artwork this Christmas, you may be thinking about having it framed and wondering where you should start. To help you out, I’ve put together some ideas and advice to make you feel a bit more clued up before walking into a framing shop.
Winter Cards
There’s still time to send a festive greeting this season with one of these winter wreath cards. You can choose from four designs: a robin, a blackbird, an owl and a goose, or get one of each if you can’t decide. The cards are sold in bags of 6 as well as individually to suit all needs. Just remember, the last dates for posting cards in the UK are Tuesday 18th December for 2nd class mail and Thursday 20th December for 1st class mail so if you are thinking of ordering these, you’ll need to allow enough time for them to be delivered to you first.

Meet the illustrator – interview for Whittard
On a blisteringly hot day back in August, I got the chance to be interviewed about my illustrations for Whittard’s new coffee packaging which has just launched this month. If you fancy a read of the full interview with Whittard, head on over to their blog where we talked about Earl Grey tea and my path to illustration amongst other things:

Illustrating Whittard’s new coffee packaging
After much anticipation, I’m very excited to share the final results of my illustrations for Whittard’s new coffee range which has just launched this month. This project represented a real illustration high-point for me last year and also marks the first time I’ve worked on a packaging project.
