Sarah Smart Bags of style for Fact and Fiction.

"Loved working on this as it's something a little different. The brand themselves came up with the idea of an 'X-Ray' illustration of their stylish bags to show just how practical all the different compartments are-seriously, there's something for everything! A commuter/working Mum's dream!"

Fact + Fiction started life as revolutionary gym bag brand GymTote, founded in 2012 by gym junkie Helena Searcaigh and handbag designer and mum of two Nicola Kearney.
After years of carrying an ugly gym bag around, and once pulling out a sweaty sports bra in a meeting, Helena decided that there must be a better way to carry her kit to andfrom work. When Helena met Nicola, the brand was born.

Adam Stower: National Museum of Scotland Merchandise

The Lewis Chessmen are among the best known objects in Edinburgh's National Museum of Scotland. Originally made in the 12th Century, this Viking hoard of ninety-three carved ivory chess pieces were found some 700 years later in a sand-dune on the island of Lewis in 1831. The Museum commissioned Adam Stower to create designs based on these famous Chessmen, for a range of products including mugs, tea towels, bags and stationery. Adam Stower is represented by Arena

It was fantastic working with their Christmas season collection and being allowed such wide creative freedom." Montana Forbes is represented by Illustration
