Fennofolk


Birds, birds, birds... i could draw them forever!


The reindeer head! i want to eventually develop this into a more interesting print, i have always loved this symbolic Scandinavian image.. and it's not just for Christmas!


Owls are a common reoccurring theme in folklore design, i wanted to use simple sketches to translate in fabric, with particular emphasis on the hand drawn look.


Haven't posted for a while as i have been busy with the new brief. I wanted to work with Scandinavian design; simple, bold with folklore influence. 'Fennofolk' is a new trend that describes modern Scandinavian design, '... slavic melancholy and long winter nights.' I have also used children's nursery rhymes as inspiration.
