This weeks LiveMakeDesign is Lilla Rogers Global Talent Search winner- Zoe Ingram!

I stumbled across Zoe's work not long after I started up this blog.

Zoe started her venture into becoming a designer since a young age being interested in design and all things creative since her childhood years. During her high school time she spent a large amount of it in the art department creating things during her spare time. While at school she also briefly studied illustration and took various art classes during her time there. After high school, Zoe studied Textile Design and graduated with an honors degree in printed Textiles from the (formerly) Scottish College of Textiles.

After graduating, Zoe worked for design agencies for her first 12 years of her career. However, after having two children she decided that she wanted to change to a freelancer. 

In the past year, Zoe has taken part in Lilla Rogers Make Art That Sells eCourse and has also just won the Lilla Rogers Global Talent Search Competition. In the competition there was orginally over 1500 entries to the competition. From winning the competition it means that Zoe will be represented by Lilla Rogers for the next 2 years, along with runner up- Daniel Roode. As well as being represented by Lilla Rogers, Zoe will also get a mini fabric collection, a scrapbooking license, a home decor and gift product line, a jounral cover, a decorative garden product and a feature in 'Where women create business'. She has also just landed a book deal with publishers Quarry, who have also worked with Lilla Rogers in the past. 

Apart from anything to do with Lilla Rogers, she was also contacted by Jellystone Designs. For the company she was asked to create and design some illustrations and patterns for their new range that is not only aimed at parents but also for children.

In Zoe's work she uses a lot of bold, bright colours. She also plans out her designs now, whereas she used to just jump straight to the computer.

I hope you enjoy Zoe's work just as much as I do. I think I won't be the only one anticipating the day where you can buy some of her work she does with Lilla Rogers.
