Chantecaille’s 25th Anniversary
illustrations for promotional products
Chantecaille commissioned a series of botanical and wildlife illustrations to celebrate their 25th Anniversary. The animals – a lion, giraffe, zebra, cheetah, African elephant, mustang, turtle, dolphin, coral, bees and butterflies – were inspired by the charities Chantecaille has supported through the sale of its cosmetics and skincare lines. The botanicals were drawn from the natural ingredients used in Chantecaille’s skincare line, celebrating their connection and commitment to the natural world. The illustrations were used on Chantecaille’s website and social media.
Limited Edition Silk Scarf
commissioned by Sarah Flint
Sarah Flint commissioned a silk scarf, inspired by 18th-century British interiors, vibrant botanicals and vintage print patterns. The patterning at Newby Hall was a key reference, as Sarah sought to encapsulate its lush gardens and ornate trims in a design that reinvented the traditional. On the back of the success of the scarf, Sarah Flint asked me to hand-paint ten limited-edition Natalie shoes as part of their annual charity event.
The Pebble Spotter’s Guide

Hand-Painted Leather Shoes
commissioned by Sarah Flint
On the back of the success of a scarf collaboration, Sarah Flint asked me to hand-paint ten limited-edition Natalie shoes as part of their annual charity event. The designs were inspired by traditional British Arts and Crafts botanicals, which twirled down the sides to meet at the front. A miniature ladybird sits on the right ribbon, and was also painted on the royal blue box.

‘arabia’, published by hodder & Stoughton
