Claire Wilson is a freelance illustrator and surface pattern designer, originally from Oxfordshire but now living in beautiful Cumbria. She works from her home studio, drawing her designs by hand before scanning them in and adding colour digitally. Represented by The Bright Agency, Claire has licensed a wide variety of her designs across the greeting card and stationery industry. Over the last few months, she has been busy adding new work to her growing licensing portfolio of card designs but has also been exploring other possibilities within the licensing world, creating design concepts for packaging and homeware products. Claire is open to licensing projects and commissions and her full licensing portfolio can be viewed through The Bright Agency website. She is also available for freelance projects and welcomes any enquiries via her website Claire Wilson Designs. You can see more of her latest designs and updates from the studio via Instagram.
Maddie Herman of Merrylittle Studio has been busy for the past month working on her own design challenge, #SurfacePatternSeptember. Each day she created a new print from a list of kid-themed prompts and then shared the design on Instagram. The challenge has been a great way to explore cute subjects and fun styles she's always wanted to try, and has also been a valuable foundation for future collection development.
Merrylittle Studio is a design label based in Kansas City, USA specializing in illustration, lettering, and patterns for the young and young at heart. Maddie officially launched earlier this year after leaving her role as a greetings designer with Hallmark to pursue a career in freelance illustration. She would love to partner with childrenswear brands, as well as toys, decor, stationery, and textiles. If you are an Art Director looking to purchase or commission artwork, please see her (Instagram) and (website) for more work and to get in touch!
