Birds in the Woods

On a more successful note, I have been experimenting lately with printing some of my drawings onto timber veneer - and I'm really liking how they're turning out.

Of course I'm only printing at this stage using my basic black and white home printer so the images are losing a bit of detail and definition, but the idea is there so I might now think about getting them screen-printed...? Oohh project!

Up & Coming: Cara Hunt

Today I wanted to share some of the work of super talented up and coming textile designer Cara Hunt.

Her graphically styled screen & digital prints are based on various Wellington skylines - look carefully you might recognise some of the scenery!

If you were clever, you may have snapped up some of the cushions she produced as a limited edition run, sold through ES Design last year in Wellys.

The lovely Cara is about to jet her way to America for a wee while, spread her wings and see the world, so all the best to her and I look forward to seeing more of her work in the future!

If you would like any more info about Cara and her work, email me and I can put you in touch.
