Many of you may have been helped in the past by picture researcher Tess, who recently left Mary Evans Picture Library, but also happens to be a talented artist and linocut designer.

Over the past couple of years, Tess has worked on a range of surface repeat pattern designs and we're delighted to present her collection to you here. Inspired by nature and childhood nostalgia, Tess's original artworks range from organic forms of leaves and flowers to more whimsical themes such as fairy toadstools or fluffy ducklings. Together they form a fabulous cohesive set for anyone wishing to utilise several designs at once and have great potential for backgrounds, end papers, book covers, stationery, gift products, textiles and much more.

Charming and inventive, Tess Hines Designs is available for licensing in all sectors. Do get in touch with me if you'd like to discuss a project by emailing pictures@maryevans.com or calling us on 020 8318 0034.
