Winter's Coming Back

For a week we've been experiencing springtime temperatures into the low 60'sF. All the snow is gone and it looks like fall just before winter blows in. The weather forecast for Thursday night into Friday is up to over 12 inches of the white stuff. It's going to be fun.

The above illustrations were created for two different winter lines, the top for Carta Bella Paper Company's Winter Fun and the bottom for October Afternoon's Holiday Style. The city illustration is my interpretation of Minneapolis's Uptown district which is just a canoe ride, in summer, from my studio.

Winter Stickers and Ephemera

Winter Patterns

Illustrations ©2016 Carta Bella Paper Company

The lake House Studio is the ideal place to create a Winter paper line. Winter starts late November here in Minnesota and can go into mid-Aril. Scandinavian patterns are seen all over the city. The studio is located on the edge of the forest where red robins nest and play in the birch trees. So coming up with inspiration for these illustrations was as easy as taking a walk around the neighborhood.
