Hello!
I'm Kristina and I live by the sea in Brighton and work as a freelance illustrator. I dig cats, sequins, the internet, Nancy Mitford, cream teas, the Pre-Raphaelites and naps among other things.
This blog is a medley of drawings, photos and anything else I find pleasing to the eye.

Yeah, I saw it!
I guess they have a point as I am both white and a whiner.
The comments bummed me out though, I don’t think I’m like that at all! I was at my parents’ house, obviously I don’t have a cleaner. Their cleaner is a Russian lady (so I CAN speak “her” language) and she gets paid like Ā£35 an hour, so it’s not like anyone is exploiting her… ,
It was a dumb thing to tweet though, so it’s my own fault.

I love looking at patterns for inspiration! :)

To give the proper credit for the designs these are Turkish tile designs.
Turks have been producing these dazzling designs for centuries.

Going by the names, I believe these are inspired by Spanish tiles which have been around since about the 13th century! So I think they do deserve some credit ;)
Turkish tiles are very beautiful too!
