We’ve invested in some new pictures – all of Bristol or its surrounds – by local artist Emy Lou Holmes.

Emily is an illustrator from Clevedon who now lives and works in Bristol. She creates illustrations of local towns and cities and retro-inspired images. Her artwork is made up of digital illustrations, drawn on her IPad and edited in photoshop. The pictures reflect her interest in  60s & 70s aesthetics and she collects vintage fabrics and wallpapers to collage into her work. We like the ‘local-ness’ of the pictures and the fact that they are somehow contemporary despite the retro inspiration.
