Laura is inspired by newspapers, ads and scrapbooks British-born artist, photographer and pattern designer, Laura Oakes, is widely recognised for her unique style of “digital decoupage” which features layers of vintage and hand-drawn imagery, with her own photography. Each work is the result of hours of research and foraging through her vast library of imagery, including vintage memorabilia, newspaper cuttings, retro advertising and precious scrapbooks collected from far and wide. To this Laura adds a liberal dose of originality and humour, both of which are an inherent part of her work. Printed cushions, £75 each from liberty.com.
