Over the past few years, AI has taken the world by storm. It’s become a hot topic amongst the art community, with many creatives fearing it will take over their work, or worse, steal their creative identity. In this post, I discuss the ways that we can work with AI, and not against it. And if there is a way of utilising it, without losing our own creative voice and vision.

For years, I believed success as a designer meant constantly showing up on social media until the endless demand to create for an algorithm drained the joy from my work. Now, I’m embracing slow creativity by stepping away from fleeting trends and returning to deeper storytelling, artistic exploration, and creating on my own terms. If you, too, feel the pull toward something more meaningful, I’d love for you to follow along.

Welcome to the first blog post in the Graveyard series. Where we explore historical and haunted graveyards from around the UK.

You may have heard the term "Surface Pattern Design" before and wondered what it means. When I tell people I’m a surface pattern designer, I often get blank stares. It sounds like a fancy title, but it simply refers to a designer who creates patterns for products.
