Victoria Whincup

Victoria Whincup is an illustrator currently based in Hull. She graduated from Cambridge School of Art with a first class honors degree in Illustration. I just discovered her soft sculptures made from calico, hand painted and stuffed with organic cotton. Each creature from the series has an interesting hobby. For example - Bobby who is a pretty little barn owl, likes to she likes to do cross stitching in her spare time.

Also, you must stop by her online store to view her beautiful prints.

One Brown Cow



What a sweet collection of owls print bags? Nicky James designed these series of bags for One Brown Cow, a UK brand. The range includes satchel, purse, tote bag and make-up bag in two colors - red and blue. They do ship internationally, including to the US!
