my name is ruth, hello. |
Hello, I'm Ruth and I'm an artist living in London.
In 2011 I graduated in Digital Interaction Design from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design. My degree has lead me on to creating artwork with a unique twist to it. Every piece of art I do, whether it be a card or an illustration, is unique. I have always loved personalising my own stuff, and I want to replicate it in my work. I love creating patterns and using colour in my work. One of my interest is maps. I love that maps are unique pieces of art, yet an every day tool for us. My honours project focused on creating a illustrated map of New York City that is personalised for every user. www.ruthtullis.com xoxo |
Flower Power Birthday
Flower Power. 2013.
When I was in New York in November I came across Rifle Paper Company at the Museum of Modern Art. I loved the colour and typography of the cards and wondered what I could do with that inspiration.

When I experimented I tried with watercolour, but it felt quite weak, I wanted stronger colours so changed to gouache which gave a much stronger, brighter feel to the cards.
Watercolour and GouacheĀ
I decided to go with gouache and got painting…


My mum’s birthday card :)
Birthday card made. :)
Vintage Threads I bought from Cloth House. My favourite coloursā¦
Loving having the time to trawl through the internet again!
Came across enormouschampion from Brooklyn, NY (this is not specifically why I like them!), combing craft, design and illustration into lovely little cards, gifts and stationary.
Really like their work. I could see myself doing something like this in the future, using my imagination and just doing it!
Some of my favourite cards..
