Postcards from Norway

I've been mentioning this for ages, but today I'm finally sharing the series of illustrations inspired by my trip to Norway!
The series has ended up containing more illustrations than I originally thought, as I had so many wonderful photos to work from! And of course they involve lots of mountains, trees, waterfalls and wooden huts! I've also stuck to a colour palette throughout these illustrations to make sure they work as a series.

These illustrations are all based on my own photographs from Stavanger, Skjolden, Geiranger and Bergen.

I've really enjoyed drawing these and could have carried on going for ages (which is still a possibility, I still have plenty of photos to draw from!)
This has also inspired me to try and do something similar every time I go on holiday. I'm headed to Belgium and Germany at New Year, and on a cruise to the Baltics next summer, so I'll be making sure I take plenty of photos again in order to produce more illustrations inspired by my travels.
