Meet the artists behind the designs!
This year, our gorgeous Tickle pianos are all inspired by different music legends. Here’s a little bit about the artists who created the wonderful designs for our 2024 piano festival.
Ffion Pritchard - Taylor Swift
Ffion 是一名艺术家和设计师,常驻北威尔士。在市场营销、商业插图、动态图形、美术和社区参与艺术方面经验丰富。
菲安对艺术如何造福社会很感兴趣,无论是通过社区参与艺术、医疗保健艺术,还是通过讲故事、幽默和娱乐的宣泄力量。
Stu Harrison - 披头士
斯图是一名插图画家和漫画家,他为儿童读物创作艺术作品,为儿童媒体创作创意,同时还为包括《卫报指南》、《Mixmag》和《Select》在内的出版物广泛创作编辑插图。
他在英国、欧洲、美国和日本都有全球代理。
凯伦-希区柯克 - 弗雷迪-墨丘利
凯伦提交的想法是早期"我们的书信"项目的发展,该项目以 "沃利在哪里"(where's Wally)的风格描绘了人们日常生活的场景,不过是黑白的。
她希望弗雷迪的服装是唯一有颜色的,就像墨丘利充满活力的精神一样引人注目。
