Today is going to be one of those days where I’ll be covering one artists in what seems to be a very lengthy (image-wise anyway) post.
And the reason that I’m doing so today is because I am absolutely smitten with the work of Laura Carlin, an award-winning illustrator from the UK. She’s the illustrator behind the book The Iron Man, written by Ted Hughes which was released late last year (I could only find in the UK Amazon website, none in the US yet!) Her style is gorgeous – childlike yet structured, and I’m particularly drawn to her color palette as well.
And not only can she draw and paint on good old fashion paper — she’s doing it on ceramics as well! She’s currently making these gorgeous ceramic pieces that also become her canvas – each one is unique.
She’s represented by Heart Agency where you can see more of her illustrative works and portfolio. As for her ceramic pieces, you can see more of it over on her personal blog. A lot of them have been snapped up already, so you’d better keep a watchful eye on her blog if you’d like to be a collector.
