World Book Day 2021

Sadly, the shop was closed during March 2021 but I painted and hid a couple of rocks when we were allowed to do so again.

Peacock Butterfly

 

This was a commission from a friend:

Christmas Tree

 

This was a Christmas present for a friend:

Ickabog Rocks

To celebrate the release of the new J.K. Rowling book, The Ickabog, I painted some rocks to give out with pre-orders of the book:

I actually did 10 different versions with different background colours.
And didn't photograph them!

Some motifs from the cover

From a previous event, two rocks for two of our favourite customers:

Luna Lovegood

Fawkes the Phoenix

There's a Witch in your Book

 

For Hallowe'en this year, we gave out rocks from a bucket instead of hiding them in the shop.

Most were older but I painted these little witches from Tom Fletcher's book, There's a Witch in your Book:

Bookshops and Libraries

 A friend was leaving work and they asked me to paint the shop where she worked:

Southwold Books

And then I painted some more local shops

Waterstones Lowestoft

Waterstones UEA

Beccles Books

Another Waterstones Lowestoft

And a library:

Southwold Library

More Mini Houses

 

More houses for our Fairy Village in the woods

These were all based on real houses I found online and made more magical

The Village in place in the woods

Rainbow Rocks

 In the Summer everyone was putting rainbows in their windows.
So I painted rainbow rocks.

Mini Houses

We are planning a rock village this Summer so these are the first houses.
