If you’re looking for a way to explore the vibrant wonders of the world without leaving the comfort of your home, Millie Putland’s illustrations will get you there. Her lively drawings capture the spirit of some of the world’s most magical cities, and they’ll make you dream of new places.
Putland is a talented illustrator from Hampshire whose rise to prominence started during the pandemic. She was looking for a way to get her mind off of everything that was happening around her and found a great escape in her art that took her all around the world, even during the lockdowns.
She started working on her signature bold and bright illustrations, which she describes as “wanderlust travel art”, inspired by her past travels. She was on a quest to create art that makes people dream of new places while also reminding them of the precious memories with loved ones or moments in time they want to remember forever.
Putland’s illustrations are inspired by beautiful places from all around the world, and they take the shape of everything from jigsaw puzzles and notebooks to postcards and bookmarks. In addition to capturing the magic of her favorite cities around the world, she also kicked off the “American City” collection, themed around the most vibrant metropolises in the United States.
