Sadly we no longer have this shrub as it used to look so festive. But here it is back in its frosty glory.

As winter descends on the UK it might help to know that there's still floral colour to be found throughout the winter. There are a small group of plants that lift my spirits between now & February-here are a few of them (& my illustrations alongside):
4 winter-flowering species (hellebore, Viburnum tinus, winter-flowering cherry, heather) and pink snowberry on a watercolour paper background with my pen and ink illustrations of them alongside and my pen to the side of the image.

👉 More about the gorgeous video by Mathieu Persan and Maéva Pensivy at: thedivinecomedy.com/news/all-the...
#TheDivineComedy #AllthePrettyLights #RainySundayAfternoon
We are delighted to present our gloriously festive video for All the Pretty Lights, created by illustrator and long term Divine Comedy collaborator Mathieu Persan with animation by Maéva Pensivy. Links to watch the video and listen to the song are in our post. Neil says: "Mathieu and Maéva’s video is a thing of beauty and wonder. We share a love of classic fifties graphics, and this seemed a great opportunity to fully inhabit that world.” Mathieu explains the process: "We wrote the script to match as closely as possible the very moving lyrics and the emotion - sometimes bittersweet and tinged with nostalgia. Neil wanted a classic mid-century aesthetic, so I drew inspiration from the great illustrator Miroslav Šašek to recreate a childlike and joyful world. Maéva then created the animations, inspired by the wonderful Hanna-Barbera productions, to bring the images to life and give them a fresh character. The result: a colourful and cheerful little film that looks as though it came straight out of the 1950s."
