As mentioned in the blurb about my new Geometric Landscape collection, it was partly inspired my a mild obsession of mine – the mountains. Living in a country which is a little lacking in real, snowy ‘mountainous’ landscape (unless you want to take a long drive/short flight up to Scotland in winter), and having grown up between flat London and flat middle England, I guess it’s a case of the grass is always greener (or the mountains are always… bigger).
This desire for snowy climes culminated in an exhausting but exhilarating Alpine mountaineering trip last summer. Unfortunately, mountaineering is not a cheap pastime and I have yet to save up for my next trip, so in the meantime I’m taking some solace by ogling some mountain inspired arts and crafts.
Check out my Inspired By list (details below the image):
