MOUNT VIC AND ME

A little piece of affordable art. Graphic designer Kara Cooper finds inspiration in illustrations, photographs, found objects, favourite things, a hint of Australiana and the nostalgia of the Blue Mountains to create fun and quirky deco-style greeting cards, tea towels, gift tags, postcards and hand painted cushions for her Mount Vic and Me range.
