North East Cards

12 Items
These cards are all inspired by the magic of the north east. I grew up in Whitley Bay and now divide my time between, Newcastle, Sheffield and the Outer Hebridies! I did all the North East designs during lockdown in 2020. All the artwork I did that year was on a black background. I found that every mark I made on the paper with any other colour then looked like light. So there is an underlying theme here of ‘finding light in the darkness’. All the designs feature a night sky. In the night sky I have used geometric patterns, particularly one sacred geometry design called the ‘the flower of life’. This use of sacred geometry represents the cosmos and can also be a celebration of North east nightlife in all its forms! The medium I use is soft pastel highlighted with white ink on black card.
