Running Your Own Business and Freelance Illustration with Rosie Smith and Lizzie Knott - Noisy Women The Podcast

Lizzie Knott and Rosie Smith are two very talented illustration artists, who I worked with for the creation of Noisy Women merch, which was released at the end of 2020.  With most of the collection now sold out, we wanted to record a podcast chatting through the collection and how the ideas came about.  Lizzie and Rosie are two individuals who I found because of the pandemic, we have been connected on Instagram for months, often chatting about our individual businesses and how we have been affected because of covid. Lizzie Knott is an illustrator who recently graduated from Cambridge School of Art, receiving Highly Commended in the World Illustration Awards 2020: New Talent, Design, Product and Packaging.  Her work has been seen globally through articles for The BBC - she is a rising talent and I feel very honoured that her designs are being worn by so many of you!! Rosie Smith is the founder of Lazy Disco, a Brighton based jewellery company.  Rosie is a very quirky and fun individual, creating unique designs from polymer clay.  Her small business, when I first discovered her, has since bloomed and exploded into a huge scale business, with her products selling out within minutes.  Being inspired by doodling, daydreaming and pop music, I was thrilled to work with her on the tote bag design. I hope you love listening to this chat, it’s baffling to me that we haven’t yet hung out together in person.  We talk all about where these gals find their inspiration for their art, how they started and so much more.
