these days, with time and space not being as available - I’ve come to love the iPad and pencil as a medium. it’s not the same, but is is in no way limiting. the first drawing is my little dreamboat, @gunnar_cowboy. others are landscapes inspired by travel and my favourite places.

Painting is by far my favourite medium. Most of these are oils, along with mixed media. You'll notice a series of paintings I did after a life-changing experience working with an orphanage in Mozambique, Africa. You'll also see some works that are clearly inspired by my curiosity and passion to explore the great outdoors. I use my canvas as a way to project how I see and experience the world...

Where we spend our time effects our moods and everyday lives which is why interior design has always fascinated me. I have been creating custom paintings for homes realising that a painting can completely transform and bring life to a space. I decided to also go on to study interior design so that I could better understand space, which has then led me to design fit-outs for retail shops, offices, cafes and bars. I love painting murals especially - the bigger the canvas, the better ;).

The photos shown include Mecca Espresso in Ultimo (best coffee in Sydney, hands down), BikeLab in Melbourne, Bondi Bikes in the Westfield (a pop up store), Atelier de Velo (a bike shop), an office fit-out for The Traditional Stonemasonry and Mojo Record Bar (a bar, record store and music venue in Sydney)

Meet little_miss_write. Write brained. Doing it write. I'm your type!

I have spent a lot of my life doodling names and words constantly and learning cursive in second grade was honestly my primary school highlight. I used assignments to perfect my handwriting and found it interesting all of the different ways I can change it. I also find it really fascinating how your handwriting can reflect your mood, and how fonts and logos are the main focus on how a brand is viewed and portrayed.

My startup instagram blog (@little_miss_write) has led people to contact me to do their business logos, tattoos, murals - the lot!

I love being able to use my passion for typography to help people with their logos, branding, murals and more...

Let's face it - as much as we'd love to have photographic memories, we don't. I use my camera to capture and remember life's experiences and to inspire others to get out there! I then like to express my experiences in a deeper way by using my photographs for future paintings, murals, typography, etc.

I specialise in logos, brochures, flyers, packaging, invitations, and magazine ads. I have designed and created websites, content and blog articles, monthly newsletters and worked on developing eCommerce stores.

I have not put everything up yet, so please feel free to email me at ashleylofton@gmail.com if you would like to see more...

I've got a strong passion for branding, and when a brand is represented well (especially in fashion) - you remember it...
