Emily Doliner - Illustrator & Designer
North Carolina based Emily uses a combination of gouache, acrylic paint, digital illustration, and collage to produce her super charming work.
Work that lends itself beautifully to greetings & surface pattern design - and has done with some top clients to boot!
I love the humour and variety to her topics.

Awesome!

Poppy Tinkler-Hunt - Painterly Patterns
Poppy has such a lovely command of her richly coloured and gorgeously flat matt gouache style - confirmed by her impressive client list, including the likes of Harrods, Laura Ashley, Cath Kidston, English Heritage, Eleanor Bowmer. Her work blends artistry with narrative, turning concepts into pieces that feel personal, playful and full of soul.
.
Obsessed with these figs though.
