Congratulations to Natasha Durley – her stunning landscape illustration ‘For The Love of Plants’ (above, and crops in the centre) has been shortlisted for the 2013 AOI Illustration Awards! We love the hand drawn textures and bright zingy colours she uses, and how her work has such a tropical vibe… if only we could dive in and go exploring. 

I love these colours - yum!

Jonathan Burton’s gorgeously illustrated Life of Pi and Argo covers for the new BAFTA programmes.  These are the two I’m especially in love with, but there are other great covers of his here - http://bit.ly/Yfkkve.
