Hand-made Christmas decorations

Posted on

New super cute, illustrated, laser-cut and delicately hand-painted Christmas decorations created by myself and my dear friend and fellow designer Ani Passarelli, available in our Etsy shop.

This set is the only one like it we’ve made this year, so it’s completely unique…

Little blue elephant

Posted on Updated on

My elephant ice-cream bowl all glazed and finished…might not be able to fit too much ice-cream in him so am thinking of using him for little flower heads (when there’s too many for the vase) 🙂

Quirky cushions

Posted on

Hi Everyone,
I’ve had requests for purchasing new cushion designs and yes you can order directly :)…
Next Friday will be the cut off date for orders and cushions will be with you within one month (as I need to get labels made up etc).

Cushions cost £30 each, are printed and made in the UK, they measure 40 x 41cm and are made on vegan friendly fabric (lovely and soft, similar to faux suede).
I’ll need to take payments this week to pay for orders (P&P can be paid for later on).
These are the five most popular designs but if you’d like another design just let me know and I can pop it in the order 🙂

Email me on: veronica_rowlands@hotmail.co.uk

Childhood Miscellaneous colour theme inspiration

Posted on Updated on

Here’s a series of mini artworks (18x24cm) which I’ve made for the ‘Affordable Art for Affordable Counselling’ auction in aid of HELP Counselling on 26th March: 11042991_769428743141132_4293229595034916157_n I’ll also be taking along to my residency at Art Fix which starts on Saturday. I’ve been working on this large series of affordable illustrations for several weeks, these few have been inspired from the 1950’s children’s book The Wonderful Egg by Dahlov Ipcar. What I adore about this book is its restricted use of contrasting colours: pink, turquoise, yellow etc….so I’m sticking to a limited colour scheme for these little guys.  11058413_10152876425927982_5275998437363948634_n 11022_775043802579626_6406371147609758069_n 15626_775044859246187_2410509297860138222_n 1907455_10152876423162982_4522916874126095927_n 11038485_775043852579621_9051180828223849253_n 11039874_775043825912957_9196158598735687070_n 11053892_775044842579522_1550211220773547506_n 11069620_775043855912954_5524303321864679300_n 11069920_775044905912849_2783142034946038776_n Childhood Miscellaneous
