With autumn in full swing, what better excuse to share some illustration work of some cosy shepherd huts? 🍂

I was approached by the wonderful team at B&Co. Studio to create illustrations for Brackenslack Shepherds Huts , a luxurious retreat on a family farm nestled in the Eden Valley. Each shepherd hut is individually styled and has a log burner, as well as a private outdoor copper bathtub for admiring the stunning views of the rolling countryside and Pennines from.

Along with the logomark there was also a series of icons and pattern work too (side note- anyone else love a good logpile?)

Excited to share a recent collab with creating new packaging for 's 'damn fine' coffee ☕ including their Decaffeinated coffee, Keswick blend and house Bakery blend. The artwork was custom designed and printed from hand carved blocks by with the final packaging designed by .

Collaborating with other creative folks on projects is always such a pleasure, and I'd been looking for a reason to reach out to Emily and Jack's studio since they opened a few years ago. The perfect opportunity came along from their neighbours Andy and Angela at the Coffee Kitchen Bakery (also previously my neighbours too when I was living in Cumbria, a real Market Place dream team!)

Thanks to Zach and the team for all their help too.

You can find the coffees launching at Taste Cumbria this weekend, at The Coffee Kitchen itself and Keswick market.

A surreal moment seeing my design work on Channel 4 last month! Congratulations to Amy and Josh on the appearance of Tithe Barn Hotel on Four In A Bed.⁣
⁣
They've done a fantastic job renovating this historic building and giving it some much needed love, while still preserving as many original features as possible alongside stunning interior design and decor. For their branding and website I incorporated the architectural elements and even pattern work from old tiled floors and stained glass windows.⁣

I was also lucky enough to go behind the scenes in my (Harry's) hardhat when they were first renovating Tithe Barn back in 2020!⁣

Here's a fun animation and illustration project I worked on recently for Natural Plant Food Co, who needed a video to display at BBC Gardeners' World Live. They wanted something to show their range of natural plant food products 'for every gardener', and from this the NPFCo neighbourhood was created 🏘️🪴🦋

It was such a pleasure working with Jess Thompson-Gray Art & Animation again, who did a fantastic job bringing my illustrations and storyboards to life!

The Natural Plant Food Co creates natural, peat-free, pet and wildlife friendly plant food on their Cumbrian farm. 100% natural, nutrient-rich feed for stronger plants and beautiful blooms for stronger plants, beautiful blooms, veg and lawns.

Such wonderful news that a new blue plaque has been installed in Leigh to commemorate Katheen Mary Drew-Baker.

Here's a portrait I made of her as part of Women in Print exhibition back in 2016. A project founded by Jane Bowyer which told the stories of women from the north of England through design and artwork from a variety of creatives and their mediums.

Katheen Mary Drew-Baker was born in Leigh and became a renowned phycologist who specialised in the research of edible seaweed and algae. In Japan she is known as "Mother of the Sea" as her research helped save the nori industry, the seaweed most commonly used in sushi.

So cool to see my designs for Magic Mountain Wood Fired Pizza in all their screen printed glory (thanks to Ben Dodge Silkscreen Artist & Print Studio).

Joe wanted an illustration of Lulu, his 1967 Citroen HY van. She was brought over from the South of France in 2015, and now together they make delicious Neapolitan style woodfired pizzas in various locations around Cumbria 🍕🚐🍕

There's also a competition over on the Magic Mountain instagram account to win a tee and free pizza, so make sure you check it out! https://www.instagram.com/magicmountainwoodfiredpizza
