Monogram

The Alphabet of Monograms, by Henry Lillie is a beautiful little book showing monogram designs. Published by Day & son of London in 1865, the leather cover has a very ornate gold stamping which sets the precedent for the rest of the book. Over 26 pages it shows examples of extremely detailed one, two and three colour monograms, it's aim to show customers and hand engravers what design was possible.

Freelance.

It's official, I have made my leap of faith and I'm now a freelance illustrator.

Last week i left my full time job to pursue my dream and actually be able to draw and create. To say thank you and show everyone in my shop how much they mean to me, i made individual cards with their own handwritten initial. Each card has a different background colour behind the white foliage pattern.

Available on Etsy. https://www.etsy.com/listing/105813050/personalised-initial-leaf-pattern

Wish me luck..!
