ABI OVERLAND
Illustrator Abi Overland creates uniquely intricate illustrations to create otherworldly landscapes to get lost in , a perfect form of escapism without ever having to leave the house .
The ethos of the brand is quality over quantity and everything is created with an air of mindfulness and is carefully considered . The idea is to work parallel to but in harmony with trends so as to maintain a timelessness that results in longevity with style . With the prints locally produced and glass / fine bone china coming from Stoke-on-Trent , the production journey is minimal and helps to support industries in both Jersey and the UK .
