I've been extremely busy over the last few months creating brand new designs for my portfolio. My agents Jewel Branding & Licensing will once again be at Surtex (NYC) Booth 2627 from May 20 - 22 to show you all of my latest creations.  You can also catch them at Licensing Expo (Las Vegas) Booth H94 from May 22 -24.  My portfolio is full of warm and appealing patterns, illustrations and typography, with many on trend motifs of the moment interpreted in my ‘grown-up whimsical’ style. Designs are suitable across a broad range of product categories, so if you are visiting either of the shows please stop by and take a look. Themes include Holidays (Christmas, Easter, Valentine’s, Mother’s Day); florals; coastal; farmhouse; animals; global prints; inspirational art; travel prints and much more!  I am looking for licensing partners across many different categories including, but not limited to, stationery, home textiles, homeware, gift, bedding, b

My agents, Jewel Branding & Licensing will again be exhibiting my designs at Surtex in New York and Licensing Expo in Las Vegas later this month. This year Surtex runs from May 21st - 23rd and Licensing Expo from May 23rd - 25th. With both shows happening back to back for the first time, I've been super busy updating my portfolio with fresh new designs!  All of my designs begin as hand drawings, so for months now I have been drawing, drawing, drawing - which has been wonderful! Here are a few examples - You can see more by following my  Instagram  @vickyyorkedesigns where I have documented much of my preparation for the shows.  I am so inspired by the sea and recently took a working holiday to the coast to do more sketching and to provide some last minute inspiration for new collections. I'm now in the final stage of preparation, pulling all of my patterns together and creating product mock-ups. Below is a sneaky peak at some of my collections, the

Surtex and Licensing Expo Recap

It's been great to hear from my agents, Jewel Branding , that the summer shows at Surtex, New York and Licensing Expo, Las Vegas were a resounding success with lots of exciting companies visiting the stand and many of them choosing to view my portfolio with the possibility of becoming licensing partners in the near future! Jewel have kindly shared with me some photos of their booths, which I'm sure you'll agree looked absolutely fantastic! First, are some images of the booth at Surtex, where each of the Jewel designers were asked to format their designs into hexagons, which were then used to create a really striking stand display. How many of my designs can you spot in the photos below?! And below are images of the stand at Licensing Expo, where some of my designs were shown on large digital display screens.   If you missed the shows, but would like to view my full portfolio please contact Beth Franklin - beth@jewe

Surtex Begins!

The day designers have been working hard towards for months is finally here. Surtex begins today in New York! I'm so sad not to be there in person, but I'm wishing my agents, Jewel Branding & Licensing a truly great day! I know they are going to do such a great job representing me! For those of you visiting the show over the next few days I have lots of new designs for you to see including my quirky hand drawn typography range, Well Hello There! which playfully mixes pattern and inspirational phrases. I have many designs inspired by my love of travel and artwork from around the world. For example, my La   Dolce Vita series of designs aims to capture the wonderful essence of Italy, while my Global collection references tile patterns from around Europe. Closer to home my Fruits of the Forest designs were inspired by my love of the English countryside around my home in Worcestershire... There is much, much more to see, so if you're in New York for t
