Have always loved vintage Chinese kitsch, the style of art created by Scottish illustrator, Fiona Hewitt. The Brighton-based artist is an award-winning illustrator whose work has been used for animation, product design, editorial, advertising and publishing. She has spent four years living in Hong Kong, Beijing, and Shanghai soaking up the colours, textures, icons and graphic styles of Asia. Upon her return to the UK she along with Asian kitsch expert, Andy Tainton, created a company called Wu and Wu. This move enabled her to transform her love of the Asian design aesthetic, nostalgia and sweet childhood memories into her art and her product range.Â
More of her work can be found on her website, Facebook and Instagram. Some of her products can be purchased in her Etsy shop.
