One-Line Bio

When I draw, the sun comes always from the west, the shadows always fall to the east. All shoes are like my ever smiling red lustre mary janes that made me want to never grow up..... ..and all fingers are up to 4 in each hand, exactly as how I always used to miss 1 or 2 of them while counting... There's a seven year old inside me that never grew up and takes over ....she makes me relive my childhood by playing the game of Hide n Seek.

Biography

I get inspired by silent creatures, faded memories of childhood, childish scribblings, monochromatic lithographies, repetitive mechanical sounds of bizarre gadgets with no apparent use, old toys, vintage illustrations from children's books and waiting for a rainbow to appear after the endless rains here in England.

I have dear memories of a little odd girl that wanted to draw her own world and flourished over a piece of paper, with a pencil in her hand, drawing.
I've studied in an Arts school for a year in my late teens, but it took many years of unsatisfied sketchbooks, drawing woman's eyes on my partner's eyelids while he was sleeping, and painfully studying Architecture, to realise that I enjoy drawing most of all ! I'm currently experiencing to the full playing Hide n Seek.

Interests

Forest animal shaped cookies, rainy days, pecks on the cheek, soft pencils, old vintage dresses, crafty things with paper, making my own bread, staring at the moon, guessing the content of old apothecary jars, England's low clouds, watching seasons change, green tea, fantastic worlds that are real in my mind, reading books with not enough light, my partner's company, woolly patched socks, the melodies of old music boxes, small umbrellas, trying to feed only on strawberries and peaches, the kindness of strangers, surprises, the yellow pages of old books, miss-delivered letters, empty birdcages, mechanical automata, giant watermelons, paper windmills and watching snails kiss. Among other things.

I just found your lovely work on etsy and think I am in love! Your work is so lovely! What mediums do you use? My mum, sis and I are trying to get into Etsy now and I am hoping to get some of my illustrations up. I would love for you to check out my blog (aniradesigns.blogspot.com) and our etsy site (seller name: Whimsybitsandbobs) and let me know what you think!

Keep up the inspiring work!

Sincerely,
Karina Beck

I have just sent an email to paperchase complaining about this.

I hope if enough people do then they will get the message.

Good Luck

With tools like Tineye around, the excuses of those who plead "unknowingly ... in good faith" are beginning to wear a little thin. I feel very strongly about this; I will email them and I won't buy from them again - unless they deal with this fairly and without using protracted litigation to win by "default".

Eloise, I just got back from the Glass, Cinder and Thorns exhibit at 323 East in my hometown, and I have to say, I think your anchor piece stole the show. It was a great exhibit, and you have compelling talent.

I have absolutely fallen in love with your work!

We live in a small cottage on a farm, full of old oak beams and stone walls. We are right next to a wooded nature reserve and overlook farmland and valleys.

Your art will be very much at home here!

I have just ordered some prints as a gift to myself and it will take some time before we can afford them all, but they will definitely make it here eventually <3
