Icarus - Lord of the Sky

Do not copy or publish this in any way, shape or form without my written permission

New vintage times painting. Created with bought, free and public domain resources.

Considering I am VERY afraid of heights I do a lot of pictures of flying. Maybe if I had wings heights wouldn't scare me so much? There is something that draws me to the sky.....

Edited and mixed up in Photoshop and Illustrator. :D

Available as prints, phone and tablet cases, T-shirts, hoodies, mugs and travel mugs, wall hangings and shower curtains, cushions and bags, duvet covers and stationary cards. Oh and mouse mats. :D Have a ball. Have a set. :D

My Dear Deer

Do not copy or publish this in any way, shape or form without my written permission

I love dear and antlers. There's just something. Maybe it's Bambi. I watched that and listened to the record hundreds of times. Made me cry every time, too. Soppy I know!

Made from bought and vintage (public domain) resources. Mad combination in Photoshop and Illustrator mixed up and coloured in (for hours and hours and hours). I am in love with it. :D

On Casetify:

Available on various devices in various styles including wood, transparent and metaluxe. :D

A different season altogether

Each year I try and design a Christmas card and I spend a lot of time thinking of something that is a little different and that works for those who believe in Santa and those who don't.

This time I went back to the roots of Christmas - beginning with Herne and the wild hunt and the 12 days of Christmas to the invention of Christmas as we know it in Victorian times (with cards and a tree) and then I threw in a little Alice in Wonderland for good measure and because it's fun.

If that is not your cup of tea (literally) there's always the text (mostly) card with nothing but good (vintage_ wishes for the coming seasons.
