Thanks for featuring my work guys, I hope to be taking some of the cross stitch patterns to the Christmas fairs I'm doing in Brighton shortly.<br />
<br />
PS If anyone likes my cross stitches check out my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/vickysworld">Etsy</a> shop and a special thanks to my sister Emma who turns my designs into cross stitches. Her <a href="https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/YellowBirdieStitches?ref=profile_shopicon">Etsy shop</a> is full of cute and typographical patterns (I love the mess patterns!)<br />

Last week I was contacted by <a href="https://www.renderforest.com/blog/vicky-scott-interview">Renderforest</a>, a video production company who like to feature artists who inspire them on their blog, so I was pretty flattered to be part of it. They asked me some great and some quite unusual questions too (one was about the smell of my artwork..!)<div>

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1rem; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">A:</span> Of course! I come up with all the ideas for my illustrations (and create them too out as paper-cuts!) I think you need to be a creative person to be any kind of artist who creates work from scratch.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1rem; text-align: justify;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">A:</span> </span><span style="box-sizing: inherit;">I do, which is why I started making my illustrations into paper-cuts, rather than exclusively using Photoshop or Illustrator. I like the wonky edges, mistakes and textures you get with collage, which are more difficult to achieve on the computer. I love when I've got an idea and have started to cut the design out of bits of paper. It's quite relaxing really (until I drop a piece!)</span></div>

I’ve included several of the iconic landmarks of Brighton too; the seaside, West pier, deckchairs, beach huts, plus the lovely couple themselves and their pussycats too! It was a really nice project and I always enjoy using lots of bright spring colours (and draw Brighton of course)!<br />

The piece is for a (hopefully very lucky!) childs bedroom and will measure almost 2m when it's complete. I thought I'd share a few Work in Progress shots before I begin the time consuming job of joining all the bits together and the nerve wracking job of sending it off to the printers.<br />
<br />
Ps Anyone for a geography joke?<br />
<br />
Q: What did the sea say to the shore?<br />
A: Nothing, it just waved!<br />

Sorry!<br />

Really fun projects and a challenge to get me to finish a collage in a day and at a tiny tiny postcard size!<br />
<br />
First up was <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/276953962666654/">Postcats</a>, an exhibition organised by <a href="http://www.ellagoodwin.co.uk/">Miss Ella Illustration</a> (one of my all time favourite cat illustrators). My very pink design is called I think that we are gonna be friends (White Stripes reference anyone?)<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">about a jumbo sized but friendly black moggy and her smaller tabby buddy sharing a moonlit hug. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">A whole host of wonderful illustrators have submitted pieces which will be on show from 23rd September at the Norwich Gift Emporium. Well worth a visit if you find yourself in Norwich and fancy seeing over 100 pussycat designs! </span><br />

First up her interview wit the late Linda Mc Cartney. My brief was to create an illustration to appeal to men and women showing the sassy but serious journalist as her alter ego, on the way to do an interview. The book in available to download <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01GHV1Z4K/ref=cm_sw_r_fa_dp_Fl4Exb0DNH43P">f</a>rom Amazon.<br />

I decided to communicate the itchiness of Psoriasis by through my main inspiration of nature, turning my character into a sort of human cactus, surrounded by bees and hummingbirds that were constantly poking and stinging her.

It was an ideal project for me, inspired by 60's hippy culture, nature and magical and mysterious elements and it was great fun making the design as weird and wonderful as possible. The brief was quite loose, based around the idea of an electric forest, although there were a few key elements I needed to include such as the Grateful Dead skulls, gnomes on toadstools and Jesus driving a hippy bus! I created the original collage and the agency (JCI Marketing, Redding CA) added in some photographic elements.<br />

The first 4 are for Dobbies Magazine (available in Dobbies Garden Centres now) and the article is to encourage children to get into gardening. The projects were easy to make and fun and I wanted this reflected in my designs by including lots of little creatures to keep kids entertained (spot the bees, cat and naughty caterpillar!)<br />

The next illustration is the front cover for Inner Circle, a client I've enjoyed working with several times. The theme of the issue and illustration was technology, in particular apps, so we've got apps for everything from dry cleaning to space ships! It was a really fun project especially making technology out of paper! You can see the whole issue <a href="http://innercircle.publish.digifiit.com/issue4">here.</a><br />

The design illustrates accompanies an article on </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21.3px;">BBC Radio 1 & 1Xtra Stories: Chris Stark’s Dry Diary, as the presenter gives up alcohol for a month to investigate why more young people are abstaining from alcohol altogether. My design focuses on a young women stamping on some (rather scared looking!) alcoholic drinks and to emphasize the foot I gave the whole design a weird looking perspective!</span><br />

As you might know my elephant created for the Bangkok Elephant Parade is now up for <a href="http://www.elephantparadebangkok.com/">auction</a> online. She and the other eles are at their final exhibition destination at the Riverside Plaza until 15th Feb and is for sale online now. Hope she raises lots of money and goes to a wonderful new home.<div>

I've also had some exciting news regarding another animal. I recently submitted a design to <a href="http://zanyzebras.org.uk/">Zany Zebras</a>, a parade of zebras coming to Southampton and organised by Marwells Zoo.

It was a gift for her Mum and husband to celebrate their wedding in the summer. Always lovely to work on these kind of projects knowing it will end up on someones wall (plus the added pressure that it was just before Christmas and the piece needs to be just right!) As it turned out they loved it, so thought I'd share the results. If you are looking for a personalized illustration (from A4 size upwards!) please do get in touch. I've also included a couple more recent bespoke illustrations too!<br />

I was delighted to find out that my design had been chosen. My first exhibition in Asia (as far as I know). As it's just so far away to transport an ele my design has been painted by a ghost artist over in Thailand. I think they have done a great job of it. Wish I could have painted it though! My exotic and magical design An Elephants Dream will be on show with the rest of the herd from the 1st December in <a href="http://www.elephantparadebangkok.com/">Bangkok</a><br />

Although the Pavilion is very famous it's still one of my favourites, but I've also been drawing the Fountains, Pells Pools in Lewes and the um seagulls. The 2 finished designs were also influenced by vintage travel posters.<br />

After several months of hard stitching and pattern designing we've now got several collaborative efforts in the form of Trees, Birds, Hot Dogs and Christmas all live to buy and download on my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/vickysworld">Etsy Shop</a>.<br />
<br />
Here are some more designs in progress. If anyone has any favourites do let me know and we can try to launch these first (or are there any of my designs you'd like to make?!) I think mine are the Alice in Wonderland characters and the Meows!<br />

I'm pleased to announce my owl made the journey safely to Birmingham and is now on display alongside over 80 other owls. If you're in the city between now and 27th September you can enjoy a fun day out spotting all the owls on the<a href="http://thebighoot.co.uk/trail/"> trail </a> (Mine is no.6) <div>
<br /></div>

My friend and fellow owl painter <a href="http://www.kateleonardillustration.com/">Kate Leonard</a> took these photos at the launch. Thanks Kate! </div>

It was for an all day event at the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/NorthernLightsBrighton?rf=478318008851254">Northern Lights pub</a> in Brighton and my brief was to paint a design that represented the night. I chose to create a camp fire design surrounded by musicians (and seagulls) with a friendly owl flying overhead. I created the piece on a piece of black fabric (quite thick!) with acrylics. Cleo is not impressed.<br />

He or she is entitled One Giant Hoot for Owlkind to reflect the space theme of the design. Although I don't want to give away the whole piece now (and spoil the excitement!) here are a few shots of the owl developing over the last 3 or so weeks.

I wanted to create something brightly coloured, tropical and exotic, so came up with the idea of using lots of exotic flowers and butterflies. However there is a twist, these butterflies are actually little elephants. The design is called An elephants Dream as the main little elephant, asleep in a flower is dreaming about what it would be like to be able to fly around like a butterfly! I'll find out in May if it is chosen- wish me luck!<br />

There are going to be lots of baron sculptures decorated by artists dotted all round Lincoln to celebrate. My design idea is a healthy eating baron humorously titled Baron Von Munchies who is wearing a variety of brightly coloured fruit and vegetables, milk, cheese and other healthy foods. </span><br />

The campaign is to keep whales and dolphins in the wild rather than in captivity. All artists were given a blank tail and a little biog about the orca whose story their tail needed to represent (mine was a baby orca called Kamea whose family came from the warm tropical Atlantic). The tails are on <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Whale-Tail-Sculptures-Orca-Kamea-Designed-by-Vicky-Scott-/281626263224?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item41923bbeb8">sale on Ebay</a> with all proceeds going to charity (but not for long mine expires tomorrow!) </span><div>
