New illustrated greeting cards for birthdays, bat-lovers and wild swimmers!

Here are some of my new card designs that are available on Thortful - and here’s a 30% off link for your first purchase - yay! Click on the images to see them on Thortful. All of these designs and many of my others start out as hand-illustrated originals for my friends/family and with a little digital pimpage I spruce them up ready for printing and offering to a wider audience.

Does an imaginary pond surrounded by wildflowers and inhabiting nudey peeps and birdies sound like fun? After months of covid lockdown, (somewhat socially-distanced) freedom is on the agenda! #Freeyourbits.

Have a wild birthday card for nature-loving wild things!

Pardon my French, but I’m crazy about you.
And bats.
I’ve been partial to the adoration of bat populations since accommodating a mother and baby bat on my cabana ceiling in Nicaragua. Followed by attending bat talks, clutching sonar detectors on bat punting safaris, and drawing the little blighters left, right, and centre.

Nature journal & design sites

Hello!
I’ve been squirrelling away behind the scenes uploading my illustrations to websites such as Redbubble, Society6 and Zazzle.

These platforms do everything from taking your product orders, to printing and manufacturing the items, to delivering the orders.

My most recent illustration, available as the printed front cover of ‘my nature book’, a sketchbook/journal for drawing nature finds, mindful musings, fungi identifications, or what ever one decides to create within.

The designers receive a commission from each product sold. Orders are anonymous and are sent directly from the company to the customer.

The range of products on offer varies from site to site. The products I’m personally offering with my designs are varied too depending on the format and size of the original image files and what the fit onto. If it wasn’t for these sites I wouldn’t be able to offer my images on e.g. side tables or duvet covers which is fun!
