Tamara and the Bees

19 March 2013

Tamara Joubert has been enchanted with bees and by their current plight for survival and she recently entered a competition run by The Daddy Hotel Group in South Africa to design the interior of an Airstream trailer. Her team went on to win a Gold Loerie award in the 3D and environmental Interior Design Category. The bee motif features regularly in Tamara's illustration and design work and she has always been enchanted and inspired by their contrasting colouring and fuzzy texture both of which played a part in elements of her design.

Working with Beehive Illustration has been a dream. One of the best parts of creating the Shinoy and the Chaos Crew series has been seeing the staggering artwork develop into stunning final pieces that have always exceeded my hopes and expectations. It has been a huge pleasure working with such a talented, professional and friendly team.
