Last week was a roller coast of heat, fun and sunshine. It was so lovely .
So often I miss out the summer frolics of the summer half term with the family, because I’m tense and feeling stressed about creating new fancy festival illustrations ready in time for Glastonbury festival .
I can honestly say that I’m truly enjoying the Glasto fallow year , I know that many of your won’t be .
The last fallow year I had my baby girl and this is the summer that we’re embracing the family time with new neighbours too. Soaking it all up!
Last week we escaped to the coast with more family too, this was the van pack with toys and not stock!
I’ve been illustrating more county maps this year .
Castles in the sky will be out this summer.
We’re popping up at Camp bestival and Greenman festival .
So there will be some fancy festival paintings there to tempt you ! ❤️
See you in the festival fields next month

I’ve been personalising a few prints this week and yet I still can’t share them with you until they’ve been received.
But they’ve been magic ones, ❤️that have made me smile .
Here is a teaser of a personalised print with a Rose cottage .

And just how perfect are the new silk bags for the occasion. I had to share these images.
Perfectly wrapped.

So just over the hill from my home is the amazing The Barn at Weston Manor Farm,
Corscombe .
I feel ecstatic to be their artist in residence for the next few months .

Emily host unique dining experience, intimate supper clubs, private celebrations and occasional lunches.

What an amazing place and joy to be hanging my original illustrated maps on the wall.
Only a stones throw from home .

I love the cheeky chicken ambling in to see if they made it onto an illustrated map of Dorset!

Glastonbury Tor
Illustration by fancy painter Kate
It’s almost the Glasto month.
Just perhaps I’ll wander up there for a sunset or rise in June for the midsummer sun? 🤪
This is the large Glasto print at 50x50cm.
Perhaps I need to frame it on one of my newly painted festival frames .
