LYONS DEN Plum Wallpaper

I wanted to create a wallpaper  that would be both perfect for a nursery or a grand hallway, suitable for both the young and the young at heart.

A friend looking for a wallpaper for her own nursery inspired this design. I began drawing during her pregnancy and many months of work later, the design is complete just in time for baby Maggies arrival. Her surname is Lyons, therefore Lions had to be the theme of the wallpaper. I am fascinated with Tanzania and the immense ecosystems of the Serengeti and Kitula national parks. We decided on this being the setting for the design. Loving the idea of incorporating hot air balloons into the wallpaper, an animal led safari started to shape the story. I love the traditional french toile style of wallpaper, so delicate, chic and intricate; it seemed the perfect way to layout and colourise it. The design escalated from there, with endless additions and tweaks, but the devil really is in the detail for this one. Spot all the little hidden creatures and read the tale interwoven into the wallpaper…

Welcome to ‘The Lyons den’.
