Welcome to Gabrielle Solly Illustration
I’m an illustrator and modern calligrapher creating ranges of greeting cards, stationery, art and commissioned pieces. I’m inspired by our natural world and the romantic, colourful designs of decorative arts.
I use old dip pens, inks, watercolours, crayons and pencil to create my work and finish some art pieces with gold/silver metallic paints and pure gold leaf.
I frame the art in vintage, antique and contemporary frames. Where possible I leave the dings and dents, old tape, original glass, backing boards, clips and hooks to retain the history. Artwork is mounted on an acid-free board and art which has a deckled edge are mounted on matching paper with British-made Conservation ATG tape.
I will be exhibiting at a variety of Fairs and Brocantes in Kent, East and West Sussex during 2026. Click the button below for details and do join us if you can!
