A month in my mind... October 2022
With October saw the shift of the seasons bringing the stunning Autumn colours. I have been concentrating a lot on client work through October. I did enjoy a much needed week away with my lovely family to Wales, we stayed in a place called Aberaeron. Our little cottage was 30 seconds from the beach and the town had some lovely restaurants, shops and cafes to enjoy. The cottage also had a hot tub which our daughter thought was the best thing about the whole week, she was in it every day if not twice a day! And no we are definitely not getting one for our own garden, too much maintenance which takes away the pleasure of using a hot tub, she obviously asked about it quit a few times!
I hope you enjoy seeing what I got up to in October 2022, with client work, my own personal work and things that have inspired me.

Client Work

What makes me tick
I love keeping notes of things that excite, inspire and set my world on fire, whether thats a magazine designed beautifully, podcasts, beautiful packaging, or a colour that catches my eye.
Below are things that inspired me last month.
Left image: Autumn colours are simply stunning, this photo of a toadstool captures this in abundance. Photo taken by Simon Philpott at Llanerchaeron
Middle image: A beautiful quote I came across when I was at Compton Verney’s colour exhibition in the Summer that fits perfectly with the colours of Autumn.
Right image: Another stunning photo that captures the pure essence of why Autumn brings a warm glow into your soul with the colours it offers. This photo was by Simon Philpott at Devil’s Bridge Falls
