Writing for Candid Magazine

Pin It

So as well as running this blog and working full time, I am writing freelance for several publications. A recent venture is with CANDID MAGAZINE whose new issue is out now. This issue features an article by yours truly and explores the relationship between fashion designers and illustrators. Check out the full issue HERE and see the screen grabs below.

Creative Focus: Lisa Stannard

Pin It

Over the last few weeks I've been spending a lot of time on FASHION156 and I have been inspired to say the least. They regularly feature the work of creatives in photography, art and illustration and often use emerging talent, showcasing their work to a large audience. So I have decided to do the same. Share and share alike I say. So the first in my Creative Focus series is the fashion illustrator LISA STANNARD. She is one talented lady and has been on my radar for some time. Stannard started her career with a degree in textiles, and has specialised in illustration and print design, working with Lily Allen on the launch of her clothing store Lucy In Disguise and has been commisioned for many freelance projects.

She is most famous for her work with Whitney Port, who you may remember from MTV's The City, and designs prints for her Whitney Eve clothing collection. Her signature style of bright and semi-abstract feminine florals and stylistic portraiture has seen her emerge as an industry-leader in the field of fashion illustration and print design. Below are some examples of her work, from her freelance projects to her most recent work for Whitney Eve. Feast your eyes.
