Hannah Evelyn Rowlands x Jolly Awesome
I worked with design studio Jolly Awesome on a range of illustrated greetings cards & art prints to be sold at retail & online which we launched in 2020.
We exhibited the range at Top Drawer at the start of the year, which was super exciting! Sadly covid closed the shops for the majority of last year (and what we already have of 2021!) but you can buy some of the designs at Moonpig & Scribbler currently. And hopefully at physical retail soon *Ok, when the world goes somewhat back to normal…*
You can also find all of my designs on the Paperboy app.
Sketchbook – Who doesn’t love a vintage Polly Pocket?
Hello! Life got busy, and the blog got neglected as usual. I’ve been doing quite a lot of drawing lately, so here are a few pieces – old and new.
Cadaqués – Salvador Dalí House
Way back when, the summer before last, I visited Cadaqués in Spain. Even though it was a while ago now, I can remember so vividly how blue & white everything looked – it felt like such a fresh place to be and very relaxing. As well as the beauty of the place it’s also the location of Salvador Dali’s home which is open for anyone to visit.
It was truly amazing, left just as it was. Some of my favourite parts were the giant bear upon entrance, the art studio with old paints in the original packaging and the bedroom was very elaborately decorated too. The outside space was also incredible, including the big eggs everywhere and the giant phallic water feature… I would never have said I was a huge fan of Dali’s work but after visiting his home my interest was definitely piqued!
Fundació Joan Miró – Barcelona
Hello, hello, is anybody out there?! A lot of the time real life is more fun than the internet, when things get busy it’s good to live in the moment and not update your online presence… ya dig? ~ mindfulness ~ etc. etc. Anyway, hello July! Hello blog! Jeez this year has flown by. ANYWAY…
Last month I went to Barcelona, and had a mini road trip up to Cadaqués (next post!). One of the first places we visited was the Joan Miro museum, located at the top of an amazing hill in Montjuïc, Barcelona. It was super fun and colourful. The architecture of the museum is very ‘Bauhaus’ & extremely similar to the Bauhaus-Archiv in Berlin (also an incredible place if you love concrete as much as I do!) The Miro museum is much cleaner, feels lighter and more airy though. I wish I could live in a building like this.
The place is filled with amazing drawings, sketches (all by Miro) and also a very cool bar and two awesome museum shops.
