I am so proud and honoured to have won a Silver medal in this year’s Society of Illustrator’s Annual Exhibition!
Since 1959, the Society of Illustrators has hosted the Illustrators Annual, the premier showcase for illustrators, featuring the most outstanding works created throughout the year. Open to artists worldwide, thousands of entries are considered by a jury of professionals, resulting in a published book and an exhibition that is open to the public on display at the Museum of Illustration in New York City.
An Opening Award Galas for each part of the Annual Exhibition, medals and certificates are presented to the illustrators and art directors whose works are judged best in each category. Two awards are granted per category, (gold and silver) and this year I have been awarded Silver in the category of surface/product design for my HK Willow ceramics. I am SO EXCITED! I am now officially an award-winning illustrator.
For the competition, I entered the special version of the Willow Pattern Collection that was made in green and gold exclusively for Lane Crawford department store in HK, as a limited edition to celebrate Chinese New Year 2020. I hope that everyone who bought a piece will enjoy it even more now it’s an award-winning design!
Thank you to Louis Papachristou at faux who is the most awesome production partner ever, Lane Crawford , who have supported me throughout my illustration career in HK, and the judges at the SOI in New York.
