Happy New Year!




I am starting the new year with inspiration from the beautifully bright, block colours seen in these vintage railway posters, a great contrast to the dull grey weather outside! Many were designed by Norman Wilkinson.

Alphonse Mucha








The whimsical world of Mucha; the pattern, detail, and colour all combine to create these magical images.

Battleship Dazzle




Dazzle Camouflage was an attempt by artist Norman Wilkinson to confuse the opposition by applying these obscure patterns to the ships for protection.
