This ScrawlrBox invites you to wander into your happy place – where (or whatever) that might be. Use these supplies to map our your personal sanctuary.

Matty is an ink and watercolour illustrator originally from Cumbria now living near Leeds in Yorkshire; so he feels at home in both the Lake District and the Dales. These beautiful local landscapes are a significant inspiration for him, however he also loves visiting (and illustrating) less familiar areas such as the incredible Northumbrian castles or the lochside cottages of the Highlands. Adopting the philosophy that life is too short for grey shadows, he mixes blues and purples to create shade, cast-shadows and, subsequently, the sunlight which is the focus of his work.
