Free Rose Pattern Tile Background

Roses are Red...and Blue and Yellow Too! 

I made a nice Rose Pattern Tile for my laptop background a while back and after a few people mentioned they liked it I thought I would share it with everyone. I myself like the blue but its my favourite colour so I suppose you could call me biased, but please enjoy the lovely Red and Yellow versions as well.

Stitched Up Manchester

I was recently asked to design a flyer for Stitched Up Manchester by my good friend Alice Eleanor, part of a fantastic group of Earth Conscious Fashionista-Revoltionaries based in Manchester.
I can not take credit for their awesome logo which was designed by Jim McDougall,www.flickr.com/photos/slackstatic/

Stitched Up run swap shops, social events, workshops and help with all your sewing needs at their Stitch Clinic. Find out more about their members and what they have coming up here:www.stitchedupuk.blogspot.com/

New Work

Here is a little update of work, I have been a bit rubbish at keeping my blogger up to date. I think its because I'm not keen on the new layout mine seems to have adopted. 

The first image is all about the sunny summer, a time for people so go on adventures.

The second is an image inspired by when man first walked on the moon, with the well known electronics brand Tesla Teles of course. :)

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

The American Author Nelle Harper Lee was born on April 28th in 1926. I decided to celebrate her birthday with an illustration inspired by her 1960 Pulitzer Prize winning novel ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’. I read the book as a child and it has always been a favourite of mine, and of course the film adaptation with the fantastic Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch only helped to make me love it more.
