Out and About + Art for Sale

28/08/2013

Carpe Diem

Hi there friends… Just a fly by post as it’s still the school holidays and we are out and about today. I have had little time for drawing lately as Orla and I have been so taken up with trips, play dates, swimming and visits to the beach. But, here a couple of pieces I completed recently and  listed for purchase in my ART SHOP. Hope you like. When the school term commences and I can get back into my studio, I will be working on some new original ink drawings and a new line of prints. Also, some pretty big projects I can talk about later in the year. Have a great week. xxx

Identity + Change + Decisions Prt. II

12/08/2013

The Skinny! A couple of weeks ago you may remember my blog post about making changes to how I brand myself, and how I market myself as an artist. I decided I was going to discontinue using the ‘Illusio Creative’ business name and promote myself using my own name. It was a BIG decision that had been some time in the making. I felt I wanted to step out from under the Illusio banner and adopt a more personal approach. This was hard as I have been using the ‘Illusio Creative’ name for over ten years. But, given the overwhelmingly positive response I received from friends, supporters and industry experts, I knew I had made the right decision. So, this is my first official post using my domain www.lorriewhittington.co.uk. All my content was moved successfully from the old domain to this one, and I have my hosting company 34sp to thank for that who made it all so easy for me.

A Changing Landscape..

23/11/2011

Blanket Magazine

Recently on Facebook, I was looking at a piece of work by one of my old tutors. I mentioned that he really should start a blog to profile his work, and he asked me how he would do that given that he was such a ‘Dinosaur’. Andy Hawkins was my illustration tutor on my Foundation course at Amersham College of Art in the 80s’. I was in my teens, and Andy could have been no more than in his late twenties at the most, even possibly 30, and I think recently graduated from the RCA.  I should mention by the way, that Andy is an amazing illustrator and currently lives and works in Saltburn-by-the-Sea in Yorkshire (and not a Dinosaur). Anyway, it got me to thinking how dramatically the landscape has changed for artists since we both graduated.
