Alice Melvin is an Edinburgh illustrator. She creates beautiful images and prints using rich colours and detailed patterns. I came across her work a few years ago at the Tate book shop in London and bought her Cut Out and Make Menagerie. It has been sitting in a box of beautiful things I've collected over the years and is something I must take out and make with the girls. I also recently came across her children's book The High Street, a book about a young girl going to the shops with her shopping list. I could spend hours looking at the beautiful detail in each of the shops. Have a look at her
website for many more Alice Melvin creations.
