Artist & Illustrator: Alice Stevenson

I came across Alice Stevenson's work via a post on Design*Sponge a few weeks ago about British textile designers. I made sure to email myself the link to her website to peruse when I had some free time. It's a good thing that I set some time aside to check out the site because I got lost in her world of beautifully designed book and album covers covers.


Alice's website didn't have too much information about her background except that she graduated from the University of Brighton with a BA in Illustration in 2005 (just 4 years ago!) and has been working as a freelance illustrator for G2, Faber & Faber, and Puffin Books. I was interested in finding out more about Alice so I headed over to her artist management agency Unseen's website and saw that in addition to the companies listed above Alice has also done work for Volvo, Vodafone, and Design*Sponge. Design*Sponge, hmmm that's interesting. Turns out Alice designed this very lovely banner for the Design*Sponge shop.

More gorgeousness was to be found to deeper into the site I clicked. Take a look at some of the exquisite fabrics Alice has designed. The first fabric design is also available as gift wrap from the Art Angels site.

In addition to the samples of her work there are also prints available for sale. There isn't an actual store front but you can contact Alice Stevenson at alice@alicestevenson.com for more information about purchasing one of her prints or comissioning work.

Alice also has a blog, it's a bit like a digital sketchbook.

  1. I love her work. I've been so behind with blogs and have spent the morning getting my fill of inspiration.

    This is exactly what I need.

    Enjoy the snow!
