HEATHER MCLAUGHLIN

I AM A VERSATILE, COMMERCIALLY AWARE AND HIGHLY CREATIVE DESIGNER AND ILLUSTRATOR WITH A LOVE OF COLOUR AND PATTERN! I LOVE TO DRAW AND PAINT BOTH DIGITALLY AND BY HAND FROM MY STUDIO IN BRISTOL, UK. I HAVE A BACKGROUND PRIMARILY IN SURFACE PATTERN FOR FASHION AND HOME WITH OVER TEN YEARS INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE. MY DESIGNS HAVE BEEN STOCKED BY MANY STORES INTERNATIONALLY INCLUDING ANTHROPOLOGIE, BARNeS & NOBLE, PAPYRUS, LIBERTY AND JOHN LEWIS. I LOVE TO SPEND TIME IN NATURE AND GARDENING WHICH OFTEN INSPIRES MY DESIGNS. I’M ALSO COMING TO AN END OF RENOVATING OUR HOUSE WITH MY HUSBAND WHICH HAS BEEN A HARD SLOG BUT VERY SATISFYING. AFTER MANY YEARS WORKING FULL TIME AND COMMUTING, I NOW WORK FROM HOME AND COMBINE WORK WITH BEING A MUM TO A GORGEOUS, HIGH ENERGY TODDLER!
