Around a year ago, I came across the work of French artist LAURA MANFRE via THE STAY HOME CLUB run by one of our AHD artists, Canadian artist Olivia Mew. Instantly, I fell in love with her watercolour Ragdoll Cat, that just do happened to look exactly like our Johnny. I emailed Laura the very next day to see whether she would be interested in collaborating with AHD PAPER CO. on a series in 2013... to our delight, she said 'yes'.
Chris and I are both drawn to Laura's use of watercolour to depict everyday items, animals and people, her portraits and a personal favourite. There is something very soothing about her style, and something very nostalgic. We've worked very closely with Laura, and we can not wait to reveal the finished product!
LAURA MANFRE has worked with such people as MODCLOTH, CAT TEE MISSION, STAY HOME CLUB and PONY CHOPS...
