A little bit about The Blog & Buy Sale..

The Blog & Buy Sale is a curated list of the very best creative products available online.

"Run by James & Josephine, BlogAndBuySale was launched to help support and showcase the very best creative sellers from around the world.

Intended to promote artists and designers who sell their work on the internet, BlogAndBuySale is all about helping up and coming talent looking to get noticed and make some real cash to boot. There are so many brilliant things getting sold by independent artists and designers, but the problem is the public doesn’t always stumble upon them."

There are some awards up for grabs too! - including, "most shared", "BlogAndBuySale Pick" and "Guest Creative Pick". 

We are delighted to welcome The Design Trust and The Design Museum Shop as our Guest Creative Judges for the Spring special! They will be picking a shortlist of their favourite products before announcing their top pick after the Wish List has finished.

// FEATURED IN // 1000 Portrait Illustrations

My work has been featured in this wonderful publication, 1000 Portrait Illustrations, and I have finally managed to get myself a copy to show you all.

Last year, shortly after leaving University, I was approached by the author to be featured in the 'realistic' section of the book. I was amazed that my work had been recognised and considered to feature alongside some truly amazing illustrators, most of whom had inspired my work throughout my time at University.

It is a fantastic feeling to see my work published,  although it is also quite strange seeing my University work there... My whole way of working has changed so much since then!

Anyway here's a peek if you can't get to Waterstones!

The book is divided into two sections- realistic and experimental portraiture work and displays a range of different styles. It's the perfect resource book for anyone interested in portraits.
