In 2015, I opened a shop at Etsy where I sell printable planners and wall art.

At Patternbank I sell my patterns to the fashion industry, as well as apparel graphics, kidswear and the interiors’ market.

I started creating icons, illustrations, designs and other resources to inspire fellow creatives and help designers create on trend artwork while saving time. I opened a shop at Creative Market where I sell these design goods. 

I also started selling my artwork at Redbubble, where it's printed onto physical products for home decor, clothes, cases and skins, stationery, bags, stickers and wall art. 

COURSES AND WORKSHOPS IN STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN. 

COURSE: PAINTING WITH THE IPAD

Discover the iPad as a revolutionary canvas for expressing yourself creatively. Paint with never-ending, non-toxic paints that  don't cause a mess to be cleaned up when I you're finished. An exciting mixture of experimental and traditional art techniques. At the end of April we'll celebrate by exhibiting our favourite work during Stockholm Culture Night

Painting Patterns on the iPad 

Digital Watercolours and Bespoke Handmade Work

We wanted to liberate digital art from its confined space on a computer or smartphone. We wanted to bring it out into the open air and see what happened when you could touch it and use it. How could we turn digital art into something that would give you pleasure in your daily life? 

That's how Anne Vilemsons and I came up with the idea to create The French Collection with 5 watercolour patterns painted on the iPad, printed digitally in an eco-friendly way on cotton-linen fabrics. Then we stitched our fabric into unique pieces of contemporary work that brighten your day. 

Handmade meets digital art in our new collection of bespoke pieces.

iPhoneography - harnessing your creativity with your iPhone

When I got my first iPhone in 2008, I discovered iPhone photography. I started exploring the iPhone and iPad as a revolutionary canvas for expressing yourself creatively finding new, exciting ways of adding a creative layer to my daily life. Soon I started writing about instantly developing everyday magic here at Marmalade Moon, through a series of workshops, tutorials and guides, and student art shows.  

Projects

In 2013 I gave a series of iPhoneography courses for Mobile Photography and Art at Marmalade Moon and I give workshops and talks on the topic.

On my portfolio site you can see some of my personal art work. Some created with natural media, some with my iPad, some is a fusion.

Icons and desktop wallpapers - from pixel art to vector art

Marmalade Moon first started out on a mission to help people create beautiful, simple desktops that help you get unstuck and organised so you can work with flow and ease through the day. During these years I offered free wallpapers and icons for you to download here at Marmalade Moon. Unfortunately, with the way the operating systems have changed, that's no longer possible for me to do. 

However, I still create commercial work and you can browse my portfolio and get in touch for custom illustration and icon design
