Druid Coffee: From Regular to Featured Artist

Featured Artist at Druid Coffee

If you’ve spent any time around the Avenues in Hull, chances are you’ve popped into Druid Coffee on Chants Ave for a warm brew and a cozy spot to relax. It’s long been one of my personal favourite neighbourhood stops, which makes this update feel completely surreal: my art prints are officially stocked at Druid!

Honestly, I didn’t expect this to happen, and I am so deeply grateful. A huge, heartfelt shoutout goes to John at Druid for being so incredibly accommodating and welcoming when he first invited me to feature my artwork in his café. Having my artwork sit inside a space I love so much means the world to me.

This print collection holds a really special place in my heart. It features watercolor illustrations of local Avenues landmarks, favorite community haunts, and the famous local cats that make our neighborhood so unique.

When I first started painting these pieces, my main goal was simple: show off my favorite spots to fellow locals and create a meaningful way to connect with the community. Art has a funny way of bringing people together over shared places and familiar furry faces, and seeing these prints out in the wild is exactly what I had hoped for.

What Should I Paint Next?

I’m already hard at work mapping out my next set of Hull-themed paintings, alongside a fun new project featuring British folklore cat prints!

Because these paintings are all about celebrating our shared local space.

Thank you all so much for the support so far—pop into Druid on Chants Ave to grab a coffee and take a look at the prints in person next time you’re nearby!
