Playtime Paris: Here We Come!
We’re delighted to be travelling to Paris to take part in Playtime’s 2019 January Show. Here, we’ll be creating a large-scale group portrait of the event’s attendees. The mural is inspired by Playtime Paris’ theme of “family” and will encourage participation from those who visit us.
Live Illustration at York Culture Awards 2018
York is a city of beauty, talent and heritage, so it’s no surprise they have their own Culture Awards evening, hosted by Make It York. York Culture Awards is an annual celebration of the city’s best cultural and arts organisations and events. We were so excited to be invited to record the event through the power of illustration.
Live Illustration at Seasalt Cornwall, Lytham
Seasalt Cornwall launched a beautiful new store in Lytham, Lancashire and we were delighted to be invited to its opening. There were giveaways, gifts, Cornish saffron buns, fudge and illustrations by us. We were in residence from 11am - 4pm and illustrated lots of lovely customers whilst there.
Illustrating The Secret Garden: The Finished Illustration
We partnered with York Theatre Royal and Little Vikings to bring the outside, inside for Bloom! Festival 2018. Over the course of a sunny Saturday, we illustrated the windows of the theatre and encouraged visitors to join us. We were inspired by the nearby gardens and used this in our drawings.

This year, we showcased at Creative UK’s annual showcase at Kings Place, London. The Big Summit offered VIPs, investors and policymakers an opportunity to witness the benefits of our thriving creative sector in the UK. We all came together to celebrate (and loved every minute of it).
