Hello! I’m Lisa

Artist and surface pattern designer

Hi, thanks for stopping by! I am a very creative person who loves to draw, paint, stitch, and print. I work freelance from my studio at home in Glasgow, Scotland. 

Inspired by nature I keep a daily sketchbook to help record my ideas that regularly pop into my head. I love the magic of surface pattern and beautiful colour palettes – to see a repeat pattern on fabric that I created, which started from an initial line drawing is just a wonderful feeling. I have had the pleasure of having my artwork licensed by companies such as Dashwood Studio and Hawthorne Supply Co. It is a dream come true to do what you love!

As well as surface pattern design I love to create illustrations. Cute animal characters are always fun and can be developed for a variety of products. I currently license my artwork to companies across Europe for posters, puzzles and wallpaper. 

Another interest I have is hand embroidery, I love the texture and feeling of creating something by hand. The idea of drawing with stitches is something that is very therapeutic and delivers effective results. Recently I published my first online Skillshare class on Hand Embroidery and it was so much fun. I am currently working on some more classes with a focus on drawing. When I am not teaching online I love to deliver workshops around Scotland. The creative community really is a wonderful place!
