Today, we are celebrating the incredible talent of artist Clare Mackie @claremackieillustration, who brings our designs to life with her unique vision. Clare's inspiration comes from nature and animals, capturing their quirks and beauty in her vibrant watercolours. From the tiniest insect to the grandest landscapes, Clare's keen eye for detail shines through in every piece. Raised on a farm in Kincardineshire, Scotland, Clare's love for art was nurtured by her mother who was an artist and fuelled by the works of her favourite illustrators.Â
After studying illustration and printmaking at Edinburgh College of Art, Clare embarked on a journey that led her to become one of the most sought-after illustrators in the industry. Her whimsical creations have graced the pages of prestigious publications and adorned the products of renowned brands. Despite the challenges she faced along the way, Clare's tenacity and talent have brought her back home to Scotland, where she finds inspiration in the tranquil beauty of the countryside.
Â
We are honoured to collaborate with Clare on our unique hairbrush and comb designs, each one a work of art in its own right. Her collections cover a wide range of subjects, from playful animals to elegant florals, ensuring there is a design for everyone. Clare's dedication to quality and creativity shines through in every brush, and we are very proud to bring her vision to life.
Â
Clare's enthusiasm for our partnership is contagious, and we are thrilled to have her as part of the Rock & Ruddle family. Her work reminds us of the importance of teamwork and creativity in achieving success.
Thank you Clare for sharing your incredible talent with us and for being such a great part of Rock & Ruddle’s success! 🌟
