Sam's Moth Print

My friend, Sam Pickard, designs stunning botanical printed textiles, wall coverings and bespoke interior products. I first came across her work in 2007 when I was at Bath Spa University as the designer-in-residence (The residency was part of Crafts Council's Next Move award). I was blown away by her distinctive drawing style and attention to detail. Sam continues to show her work at 100% Design every year. Look out for her if you are visiting. Sam just won the Devon Guild's Summer Exhibition President Award. The insect prints have a personal resonance with me because both my parents are Entomologists. Congratulations Sam!!! Well deserved!
