Original Poster Art & Design
“Fran offers a brilliant combination of artistic input , website & comms design for your PR,.”
Karen Perkins

I paint all of my posters by hand, sometimes on paper and sometimes straight into Clip Studio Paint.
If you want to work with me – or just have a conversation about what it might entail and how it might work for both of us – send me an email or give me a ring. It’s not often I don’t want to talk about art.
In my images, you might see line-work inspired by Szukalski, landscapes that Nan Shepherd could have written about or psychedelic colour choices that Peter Doig might have considered. However, what you won’t see is AI… There are lots of influences in there, but the work is all my own; it’s been imagined by me and painted by me.
What Comes With The Posters?
- An experienced creator you can talk to easily & for free about things like costs, terminology, imagery & technical specs.
- The artwork itself as an electronic file that will print out at the size you want it to (A1, B2, custom size etc.).
- An animated version – if you want it – that will be useful for socials & ads. Ask about this right at the very start.
- All technical issues taken on & taken care of.
- Print recommendations & management (e.g. should you need me to point you towards the right printer, help you select them & look after the print process, then that’s no issue at all).
- Platform management if needed (e.g. if you need me to upload your files to Youtube for you, I can make that happen too).

“Yes, I like the graphic novel feel with the colours.. Great work and look forward to seeing more!”
David Kendall, Penned Up
I make a lot of digital paintings and real-world pen and paper and pencil drawings for lots of people and organisations. I make psychedelic art for record labels, surreal pencil drawings for small-run authors, bright and colourful attention-grabbing posters for the prison service, modern full page-paintings for magazines and a huge range of colourful marks for print work of all types. Sometimes I create in Clip Studio Paint (which I use to animate as well as paint) and sometimes I create on Bristol board (or another type of beautifully-toothed art paper) and make my lines and grades with real-world ink or pencil. I love doing it and it’s always a pleasure.
I like to think of my work as a kind of contemporary Psychedelia, but you might see it as something else (which I don’t mind at all and I would be interested to hear what you think if you think differently). I take influences from Impressionism, old LP and 12 inch cover art, Art Deco, Modernism, Spiritual Art, lots of things that I don’t realise I’ve seen until they pop up in my subconscious while I’m painting and of course, the flora and fauna of the British Isles (which is probably my biggest influence to be honest).
What I’m really trying to do I think, is to make work that will still look good in the future, that will still be interesting in 15 years time.
I have a background in front-end development (you can read more about that offer, here) so I’m familiar with the world of digital, websites and branding. There’s no need to worry that I’ll make something that won’t fit with these things if that’s what you need from me.
Interested in what we can make together? You can contact me here.

“Do you make your posters fit in with everything else? Like the website, the flyers and all of those sorts of things?”
Yes.
“Can you make an animated version we can use for social media?”
Yes.
“Will you let us use a moodboard to show you the kinds of subjects and colours we like?”
I think that’s a great idea.
“Can you turn things around quickly for us?”
Yes I can but make sure you tell me your deadline as early as possible.
“How can I contact you?”
You can email me here.
“Are you based in Sheffield?”
Yes.
“Can you animate one of my drawings?”
No, it must be one of mine.
“Can I buy your work anywhere?”
Yes. Head to www.between6and16miles.co.uk.
“Will you manage the print run for me?”
Yes, with pleasure. Printers often have specs that designers need to know about.
