Brambley Hedge <3
Such a shame that today there are (almost) no artists capable of making such beautiful pictures anymore.

I would argue that there are plenty. Ursula Vernon comes to mind.

She’s awesome but it’s different. But awesome.

What is this image from? I've seen similar ones and always loved them!

Thank you so much! The series is called Brambly Hedge. My partner loves those, I'm gonna get them a book.

I bought the Brambly Hedge Library (which is the complete box) as a gift for my girlfriend last Christmas. She absolutely loved it, as it is one of her childhood favourites. I ended up reading it to her (a 31 year old woman) on cold winter nights.

I'm looking forward to reading them to my 28 year old woman :)

I don't know by heart but I believe this illustrator has done loads of children's books. Big chance if you insert the images URL on tineye.com you will find your answer.

Sorry mate seen it on a suggested account on insta. No clue who it was and I'll never find it.
