Daisy De Villeneuve



A few years ago I bought some shoes from Topshop and I just rediscovered these postcards that came with them. They are by the illustrator Daisy De Villeneuve. I like her simple linework, use of bright colours and the marks left by her felt tip pens. The simple typewriter style text works well with the drawings and the lined background makes it appear as if she just drew these in any old book.

I just realised that I've mainly posted illustration in here. I'm not sure why, I like illustration but its not really one of my strong points. Perhaps I should focus on design...

Anyway, I looked at her website and the design there is really nice. It has a nice home made feel to it, I think I like it because it reminds me of someones desk and when you click on each element it shows you more of her work, as if you were flicking through a sketchbook.
