Los Angeles Wall Art By Carla Daly

Image
Los Angeles Wall Art By Carla Daly I have recently completed two illustrations for Stupell industries. My brief was to create an image that reflects the LA lifestyle. It was a very specific brief as the client Home Goods, USA have a clear idea of what their customers want. These two images will be available in the Los Angeles, Home Goods stores.  Los Angeles Wall Art By Carla Daly I am really keen to license my art and have been working hard on creating new images. The United States is my focus as it is a massive outlet for my work. I have licensed five image to Home Goods and another 12 to Marmont Hill for their online shop. My two Los Angeles wall art prints have been to most interesting to complete. A slight step away from all my animal wall art, it got me think slightly differently about my artwork. I really enjoyed creating them and would love more work like this to come my way.  Los Angeles Wall Art Framed By Carla Daly You can see more of ...

Home Goods - Map Art

Home Goods - Map Art Home Goods USA has licensed three of my map art. I had already illustrated California and New York and sell them as illustrated map wall prints online at Gifts4Baby.ie . They want a simpler version of these maps, in a more subdued colour range. After many weeks of work the art was completed and samples made. Stupell  industries created the samples. After another few weeks of waiting, I got the news, three maps images were selected. California to sell in Home Goods Californian shops. Texas and New York to sell in the Home Goods outlets in these states. The images were created on white and have been backed with a blue background and then framed in white. I really love them!  Above is a closer look at California, below is my original map of California, available from Gifts4Baby.ie. 

Arctic Animal Illustrations

Image
Arctic Animal Illustrations Arctic Animal Illustrations by Irish children's illustrator Carla Daly I have been an a creative bender recently. Animals, animals and more animals. I have two possible outlets for my new art to license, both based in the United States Of America. As well as creating new map images, I am also creating a range of animal drawings.  The brief on these is very simple images and to use pastel colours. This takes a lot out of me as my images are usually very detailed with strong colours. When I started on the animal series I found it quite hard work but as I got into creating them, I really, really enjoyed it. These arctic animal illustrations had to be the most difficult, I really had to pare back on the use of colour.  I am hoping to add these to my personalised baby gifts category at Gifts4Baby.ie.   I want to create 3 more in the series, completing 6 arctic animals. I hope I can find 6 white arctic animals t...

Illustrated Map Of Florida

Image
Illustrated Map Of Florida Illustrated Map Of Florida by Irish artist Carla Daly I am happily working my way through my next illustrated map of Florida. A really beautiful state known as The Sunshine State .  I am illustrating it with a light sea blue and yellow to represent the land. I have added fish that are found in the sea around the state and the counties and county seats with famous buildings, people and other Florida attractions. Illustrating a map takes me some time, I have to spend time investigating the counties that make up the state. Each county is illustrated with an object, person, building, animal or bird. I place the county names and county seat onto the map first. Then I go through each county and add and illustration that will depict the county. I license my kids wall map art to an online shop Maps.com, they are based in the United States. You can also purchase my kids wall maps on my online shop Gifts4Baby.ie At Gifts4Baby.ie  we se...
