Excited to reveal that you can now pre-order a pack of 4 coasters of Clevedon Pier. Each pack comes with 4 different designs -- regular visitors to the pier in north Somerset, England, may recognise three of the illustrations as they've featured on my cards and prints before. But the fourth design, bottom right below, is a brand new one for 2020. I've only got a limited number for sale before Christmas 2020. They are printed on Melamine, have cork backs and will arrive in a box. You can pre-order via my Etsy page -- they should be dispatched by December 4, 2020. Buy Clevedon Pier coasters through my Etsy shop here. I also have a range of other products of Clevedon Pier, where One Direction filmed the music video for "You & I."

Living near Bristol, I've crossed the beautiful Clifton Suspension Bridge countless times and I always marvel at what an amazing structure it is! To pay tribute, I designed this Clifton Suspension Bridge Christmas card that's available to buy on my Etsy store here. It's printed on thick recycled paper and comes with an envelope made of recycled paper and a biodegradable corn starch bag. I've also illustrated the Clifton Suspension Bridge as a non-Christmas scene card, and it is available as a print on request.
You can also put yourself into the picture. Please get in touch via the contact page if this is something you may be interested in. Today I'm releasing my brand new design -- my London Christmas card. It features a couple walking hand in hand on London's South Bank, with the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and Portcullis House in the background. There's even a cameo from a little London fox and some pigeons. The card is printed on thick recycled paper and comes with an envelope made of recycled paper. It is packaged in a corn starch biodegradable bag. Buy London Christmas card through my Etsy shop here. Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year, so it's not a surprise to people who know me that I love designing things for the festive period.

Wells in Somerset is the smallest city in England, and it's also one of the most beautiful!
I've spent quite a bit time in Wells. I worked for a company based there and even had a stall at a couple of the city's Christmas markets, so it was great fun to illustrate Wells Cathedral and The Bishop's Palace for these Somerset Christmas cards. Buy Wells Christmas cards from my Etsy shop here.
Fun fact: Wells has played host to lots and lots of films and television shows -- including Doctor Who, Poldark, Wolf Hall and Hot Fuzz.

Lots of people asked if there would be any more, so I've created an initial limited run of 20 of a new 1,000 piece Clevedon Pier jigsaw. This one is a landscape version of an illustration that I've never printed as a poster before. Buy Clevedon Pier jigsaw puzzle via my Etsy here. This jigsaw is made by Ravensburger, Europe’s leading jigsaw specialist.
It measures 70 x 50 cm and is made from recycled, extra-strong card.

Please get in touch if you'd like a bespoke illustration -- or to put yourself into one of my existing prints for that extra special gift. My bonkers and adorable cockapoo (or cockerpoo, does anyone have a definitive spelling?) Larry was the inspiration for this cockapoo Christmas card -- he's on the right here with two of his best friends who often tear about the woods together getting up to mischief!
The church in the background is inspired by the beautiful Butleigh Church in Somerset, southwest England, not far from Glastonbury. These cockerpoo Christmas cards are A6 sized -- and made of recycled paper. They come with a recycled scarlet envelope and are packaged in compostable corn starch bags. Buy cockapoo Christmas cards through my Etsy page here. I also sell a cockerpoo birthday card here. Want the image as a print? Or want to put yourself or your pup (doesn't have to be a cockapoo) into the picture? Get in touch via the contact page above. It's always a lovely surprise when a magazine drops through the door and some of my work is featured inside it! The November 2020 edition of the Clevedon & Yatton Living magazine features a story -- on page 6 -- about the logo that I recreated to mark the 50th anniversary of the collapse of the beautiful Clevedon Pier in north Somerset, England, The plaque was unveiled on the point where the pier actually collapsed by Julia Elton, the daughter of Sir Arthur Elton who founded the Clevedon Pier Preservation Trust.
I've illustrated Clevedon Pier in various ways over the last few years -- and turned them into Christmas cards, greetings cards, prints and even a jigsaw.

I'm pleased to reveal my brand new street art / graffiti themed Christmas card for 2020 -- featuring Santa Claus doing a 'Banksy' (or is Banksy actually doing a Father Christmas?!?) and wishing everyone a merry Christmas in an undetermined location. Of course, he's using eco-friendly spray paints: It's inspired by my husband who's taken me to many street art events, festivals and shows over the last few years -- in London, Bristol's annual street art festival UpFest, Banksy's "Banksy versus Bristol Museum," his amazing "Dismaland" at the old Tropicana swimming complex in Weston-super-Mare in Somerset, for which we even managed to get tickets to the grand finale Masked Ball!

I'm jumping into the jigsaw game!
My illustration of the iconic Clevedon Pier in North Somerset (where One Direction's Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik filmed their 2014 music video for 'You & I') is now a 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzle. Perfect for the winter? Given how we are now again spending a lot more time at home due to you know what... This is a limited edition run -- I have just five for sale. And I won't be selling this exact image as a jigsaw again. It's in the same style as one of my best-selling prints of Clevedon Pier, but with a few added characters (can you spot the Banksy?) Buy Clevedon Pier jigsaw puzzle from my Etsy page here. I'll hopefully have news to share with you very soon about Clevedon Pier coasters and magnets. I have other Clevedon designs on my Etsy page -- also of Clevedon's Curzon Cinema.

Please get in touch via the contact page if you'd like a bespoke illustration or to put yourself into one of my existing artworks. Clevedon Pier, the only Grade 1 listed pier in the country that I have been lucky enough to illustrate on multiple occasions, stretches out into the Bristol Channel from the beautiful North Somerset town of Clevedon.
It collapsed during stress testing in 1970. Following a massive fundraising effort from the local community, it was finally repaired and reopened in 1989. To mark the 50 year anniversary since its collapse, I worked with the team at Clevedon Pier to re-draw their logo. I created the logo as a vector, meaning it can be stretched to any size without losing definition. This format allowed Clevedon Pier to create signs, advertising and the beautiful plaque seen below. The unveiling of the new plaque - featuring my new logo - was reported on in the North Somerset Times newspaper. Clevedon Pier unveiled the plaque on the anniversary of the collapse. Below is the logo as well as the lovely feature in the North Somerset Times about the event. If you read down you will see a little mention of myself.

If you would like a bespoke illustration of Clevedon Pier (perhaps put yourself into one of my existing prints, or something completely different), please get in touch via the contact page. I love being commissioned to create bespoke, customised artwork -- bringing someone's idea to life and providing them with a digital piece of art to remind them of a memorable moment.
This commission was a special bicycle ride from Bristol in southwest England to Barcelona in northeast Spain, to raise money for some fantastic causes. It was a joy to go through the team's journey and pick out the details I could bring to life with my illustrations -- such as their crossing the iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol, crossing the English Channel, docking in Cherbourg, cycling through places such as Laval, Saumur, La Rochelle and Libourne and crossing the Pyrenees mountains into northern Spain. The final artwork was printed on luxurious German Etching paper 305gms as A2. As I'd created the illustration as a vector, it can be resized to any scale -- as can the separate elements of the poster. If you would like a bespoke illustration to mark a memorable moment (such as a first house, engagement, wedding, family picture, favourite pet) of if you'd like to put an image of yourself into one of my existing prints, please get in touch via the contact page.
