Last year I became interested in watercolour art, in particular in the form of Wedding stationary and Heraldic art (such as crests). In particular, I love designing crests, which are almost like logos and can be used for a myriad of things such as a family crest, engagement gift, anniversary gift, name crest, couple crest, house crest, child's name or even a fur baby crest.
Overall, a crest seems to me to be the perfect gift for so many occasions (and so meaningful)!
There are a couple of ways to construct a crest, those being a digital collage with handpainted elements or one painted in one go (from scratch) so you are also left with an original piece of artwork to give to clients.
The latter is what I have been primarily doing on 100% cotton high quality A4 watercolour paper. I have also been turning the artwork into a digital file to use on stationary or products etc by removing the white background.
I have completed a few crests so far with more to come.
Stay tuned for more work which will be uploaded soon!
