Tropical Butterflies by Ian Winstanley
Tropical Forest by Doug Eaton
Ian Winstanley was part of a family of engineers and musicians but eventually found his home in the field of Photography. Starting out working for a top photographic studio, Ian became involved in the advertising field, later working on fine art projects for London artist agency, Private View. Since setting up his studio, Ian has built a varied portfolio that ranges from cars to reportage, classic florals and still life to tranquil landscapes. There isn’t much that he can’t turn his hand to. His intention is to produce photos that preserve a delicate balance between the natural and the refined.
Doug Eaton studied at the Cheltenham College of Art. He now paints full time and draws inspiration from his surroundings of the Forest of Dean that he has such passion for. Doug uses a vibrant and unexpected combination of colours, from viridian, cobalt and violet, to amber, cream and plum. He is interested in marrying together contrasting elements: soft against hard, hot against cold, dark against light. He currently paints in acrylics favouring a painterly look over a clinical rendition, not minding the odd dribble and using strong lines to achieve an angular, refracted look that evokes the landscape.

onfirming S/S 17 trend Encounter Culture, vibrant colours and surreal tropical foliage prove important C across products, seen from bedding to tableware. Ditsy florals and lush leaves come in neon pinks and blues, ideal to stand out on black grounds. Drop shadows and grainy textures in contrasting colours enhance the surrealness of this tropical story. Butterfly wings appear in abstract illustrations and symmetrical compositions, creating an energetic kaleidoscopic story for the home.
Seed Heritage
Toucans are flocking to homeware products, with sugary pastels updating traditional tropical colours, making for a springlike direction. Featured as all-over repeats or placed compositions in eye-catching prints, bird shapes are rounded and stylised for a graphic and fresh take across greeting cards and cushions. The pastel colour-blocking is ideal for kids' rooms, while more detailed illustrations stand out on kitchen linens as seen at H&M Home.

Signature Collection Flamingo by Louise Brown Louise Brown’s irresistible animal paintings appeal to a broad audience, and their cutesy charm is enough to make anyone smile. After an unfulfilling career as a radiographer, she decided to teach herself to paint. Based in rural Lincolnshire, Louise is surrounded by ducks, chickens and other animals that she loves and that inspire her as an artist. Her other subjects include cows, hares and woodland animals. She works predominantly in acrylics and oils and every one of her animals adopts their own quirky expression to add an element of humour into her paintings.
Birds are a key theme this season, appearing on decorative accessories, wall art and tabletop items. In Brazil, paper mâché birds have a playful craft feel, while Shanghai's Zen Lifestore's porcelain cups show a painted crane mid-flight.

Summer Landscape by Janet Bell Janet Bell’s work is traditionally British with a Scandinavian twist, her Danish roots evident in the colours and compositions so prevalent within Nordic illustration. She originally studied textiles and screen printing, but started painting the British coastline in 2001 when she became inspired by trips to English seaside towns together with memories of playing on the beaches of Denmark. In 2007, Janet and her husband moved to the Isle of Anglesey and opened the Janet Bell Gallery in Beaumaris. Starting out selling a few prints from a side street studio space, it quickly relocated to become a High Street success.

Craft techniques from far-flung places celebrate craftsmanship, slow living and global travel. Basketry adds pattern and tactile surface, while wicker frames and macramé knots hint to a retro 1970s look to walls. Whether as single statement pieces or multiples carefully displayed, raw forms of wicker, threads, bamboo and mirror add a new and rich sense of meaning to interiors.
Painterly Finishes Paints and pigments mix and blend into each other for a mottled look, while textures give way to surface plays of randomly layered patterns. On Atelier Biagetti’s closet, an inlaid mirror seems to seep into the pine wood surface.

Domestic crafts will continue to gain importance in the coming seasons, in a trend central to the S/S 17 Edgelands story. Embroidery, cross-stitch, or crochet give interiors a slightly kitsch, nostalgic look. Lace and macramé are other key techniques, used as pattern embossed onto ceramics or printed onto textiles. Positive hand-stitched messages, as well as tiny running- and cross-stitches and vintage-look florals decorate and finish textiles. They are added to accessories as an accent, or across the whole surface as a tactile pattern. Japanese designer Kentaro Kudo soaks knitwear into porcelain, allowing users to sculpt shapes without having to use a mould.

Stylised and naked branches create a mysterious wintry forest look, while leafed sprigs are jacquardwoven for curtains and towels.

Country Cottages by Louise O’Hara
Living by the sea in Brighton with her two dogs, Sam Toft enjoys making a living from drawing her imaginary friends: Ernest Hemmingway Mustard, his wife Violet, and their Jack Russell Terrier, Doris. In her seaside studio with only her dogs and BBC’s Radio 4 for company, Sam’s imagination runs free and Mr Mustard and friends come to life. Sam also likes to write and sculpt, recently creating a cast of puppets from her popular characters. The most recent project is her new shop and the smallest open exhibition space in the world in two red phone boxes in Brighton.
Louise O’Hara works out of her little studio in Cheshire, surrounded by sewing machines, boxes of vintage fabrics, typewriters and thread that she uses to create her richly layered artwork. While gaining her Masters Degree in Fashion and Textiles, she discovered the Japanese aesthetic concept of Wabi-Sabi and aims to capture ‘beauty in imperfection’ in her designs. Louise is influenced by aged textures and surfaces and loves to play with threadbare, hand dyed fabrics and hand painted papers. Substituting the pencil for her needle and thread, Louise stitches stories into her paper to create a sense of nostalgia and narrative.

Shyama Ruffell grew up in the Sussex countryside. Her childhood memories of discovering a magical world of colourful wildflowers and insects are a significant influence on her paintings. Shyama’s images are full of colour, texture and pattern reminiscent of ceramic and fabric designs (another source of inspiration). Fresh flowers always fill her studio and provide fantastic reference material together with drawings and photographs. With their semi-abstract edge, her paintings become “A cocktail of William Morris and Rousseau in an English meadow, with a splash of Klimt”.

rown confirms as a strong directional colour, driven by the growing influence of nature in interiors – B presented in Earthed A/W 17/18. Rich, saturated tones of brown are fortified by the widespread presence of natural and untreated wood and clay. Brown is also a fresh option for backsplashes and feature walls. In textiles, velvets and coarse fibres have sophisticated yet retro appeal. In winter it pairs elegantly with deep blues, reds and greys, while in summer it grounds the brighter tones.
These warm, glowing colours have an intensity that is reminiscent of autumn at dusk. Saffron yellow is accompanied by ochre, pumpkin orange, clay red and berry purple, while evergreen and hazelnut introduce a more grounded quality.

Living by the sea in Brighton with her two dogs, Sam Toft enjoys making a living from drawing her imaginary friends: Ernest Hemmingway Mustard, his wife Violet, and their Jack Russell Terrier, Doris. In her seaside studio with only her dogs and BBC’s Radio 4 for company, Sam’s imagination runs free and Mr Mustard and friends come to life. Sam also likes to write and sculpt, recently creating a cast of puppets from her popular characters. The most recent project is her new shop and the smallest open exhibition space in the world in two red phone boxes in Brighton.
Louise O’Hara works out of her little studio in Cheshire, surrounded by sewing machines, boxes of vintage fabrics, typewriters and thread that she uses to create her richly layered artwork. While gaining her Masters Degree in Fashion and Textiles, she discovered the Japanese aesthetic concept of Wabi-Sabi and aims to capture ‘beauty in imperfection’ in her designs. Louise is influenced by aged textures and surfaces and loves to play with threadbare, hand dyed fabrics and hand painted papers. Substituting the pencil for her needle and thread, Louise stitches stories into her paper to create a sense of nostalgia and narrative.

Shyama Ruffell grew up in the Sussex countryside. Her childhood memories of discovering a magical world of colourful wildflowers and insects are a significant influence on her paintings. Shyama’s images are full of colour, texture and pattern reminiscent of ceramic and fabric designs (another source of inspiration). Fresh flowers always fill her studio and provide fantastic reference material together with drawings and photographs. With their semiabstract edge, her paintings become “A cocktail of William Morris and Rousseau in an English meadow, with a splash of Klimt”.
Louise Brown’s irresistible animal paintings appeal to a broad audience, and their cutesy charm is enough to make anyone smile. After an unfulfilling career as a radiographer, she decided to teach herself to paint. Based in rural Lincolnshire, Louise is surrounded by ducks, chickens and other animals that she loves and that inspire her as an artist. Her other subjects include cows, hares and woodland animals. She works predominantly in acrylics and oils and every one of her animals adopts their own quirky expression to add an element of humour into her paintings.
