Michelle Freer Studio

Sometimes you only have to look around to find inspiration… the dahlias struck me walking down the road!

Block print style botanical, a bit of a departure from my usual delicate and feminine style but definitely fun to have a play with this aesthetic

Same motif family, different print layouts… Which print do you prefer?

Hello! I just thought I’d introduce myself to all you lovely people and take an opportunity to clarify what I do. As a creative I tend to be a bit camera shy as I like my work to do all the talking for me (and let’s be honest… showing my face on insta kind of makes me squirm but here I am showing up!)

Anyway, I basically have two arms if my freelance work and I honestly love the work I do for all my types of clients, both graphic design and print design. So, I’ve bucked the trend of niche down and embraced my multi-disciplinary design education (n.b. I studied a design degree which encouraged and nurtured the multi-disciplinary approach as a creative, so it’s one of my passions to follow this path!)

I believe this gives a unique advantage to clients who work with me, but I’m interested to hear any feedback on this and whether you think my offering needs more clarity? Let me know your thoughts!

Working on some Jacobean florals, a new take in the classic blue and white colourway

Printspiration from on my recent Paris sojourn 😍

New year, new business cards. I’m in Paris for my first visit to next week, so looking forward to connecting and exploring!

Love this!

May your commissions be abundant, 
May your feedback be concise. 
May no one ever ghost you 
After asking for your price. 

May your invoices pay swiftly, 
Posthaste, without delay! 
And if it’s work-for-hire, 
May you firmly say “No way”. 

May you make time for your passions, 
to cook, run, write and play. 
May your timelines be respectable 
And never “yesterday”. 

In ‘24 I wish you these:
The projects that you crave.

May your edits be minor, 
May engagement be higher, 
May your files auto-save.

Throwback to this cute little flowery fox illustration I did a few years ago… it’s all in the eyes for me!

Finally upgraded my old Wacom tablet to a pen display! In a bid to improve my ergonomics (darn carpal tunnel) I’m trialing this new setup and so far it’s really doing it for me!

From pencil and paper to fabric, I love the alchemy and magic of print design! I’m about to upload this print to the store where it will be available to purchase soon! 👆link in bio!

Hand drawn blooms and botanicals ❤️🌸🍀🍃🍁

Loving these super cute pyjamas with matching sleep mask by screen printed with my botanica floral print 😍

Drawing details from my mimosa paisley. No matter how many different mediums I try, pencil is and always will be my favourite! floral

Pretty paisley details

Fashion florals in my 3 favourite signature styles: illustrative, graphic & bohemian

Nocturnal Creatures wallpaper for

Still one of my favourite (and best selling!) wallpaper designs!

A little sneaky peek into the pitching process for this print. The client gave me Pantone swatches and was after a mid-large scale floral/botanical print that would work on intimates as well as sleepwear. It needed to be suitable for screen printing and be no more than 5 colours., so this is the design I pitched!

New print for has just landed and we are dying to get our hands on these super soft organic cotton pjs!

Came to London to see the coronation parade… too rainy and crowded so we ended up print spotting in Harrods and then in the V&A. A much better idea!

Strange beautiful flowers are my current obsession!

Dahlias and dragonflies
