Rainbow Skies Collection
“I wanted to create something that felt like a happy day in pattern form, something children would instinctively connect with. It’s simple, bright, and made to spark joy.”
Skyward
Most of my pattern designs and illustrations begin with a feeling… Skyward collection began with joy.
This collection was inspired by my illustration Plant Kindness to Grow Joy, a piece rooted in the belief that simple, thoughtful moments of being kind to each other and the earth, can grow into something beautiful. I wanted to take that idea, of kindness and warmth and translate it into a playful pattern collection made especially for kids.
The Skyward Feeling
Skyward is all about looking up to sunshine, birds in flight, painted vivid rainbows and bright skies full of imagination. It's the feeling of playtime in the park, sunshine on your cheeks, and the promise of a colourful day ahead.
Each design is hand-drawn with a focus on bold, expressive shapes and happy colours. It’s perfect for little ones who radiate energy and wonder.
Available in a range of bright, bold colours and also a boho muted colour palette.
Designed for Little Adventures
I envisioned these prints on playful pieces, like a backpack zipped up for school, or a lunchbox packed with favourite snacks. I can see them on pyjamas for bedtime stories or on dresses that spin in the sun. The colours are a full vibrant spectrum and the patterns feel accessible and fun.
Whether it’s clothing, accessories or decor, Skyward brings a pop of happiness wherever it lands.
