About me:

..

A Little Slideshow of My Work

..
I'm Charlotte and I'm an artist & illustrator from Nottingham (UK). I have now been in business as 'Charlotte Thomson Art & Illustration' since November 2005. I have also spent a year working as Gallery Coordinator at VIEW from the Top Gallery (Above Waterstones in the City Centre) and have been involved in the organisation & curation of acclaimed exhibitions such as 'Ooh La La! Burlesque Inspired Art' and 'Danse Macabre'.

The themes of my artwork range from retro pin-up style and low brow art to fairytale and myth and dream inspired artwork. I like to put a different spin on old ideas and im really interested in 40s and 50s films, victorian gothic fiction and advertising so theres a retro and vintage feel to a lot of my work but with a new alternative spin. But take a look for yourself! ..

On my website .. www.charlottethomson.co.uk.... you can find information on commissioning original artwork & you can purchase original art and reproduction prints of my existing work. You can also find my full resume/C.V of past work, including original artwork for private collectors, CD cover art for musicians,tattoos, tshirt designs, posters, flyers, logos, website artwork, portraits of people and pets and book illustrations. I create both traditional hand painted/drawn artwork aswell as digitally coloured work.

If you are interested in my work or in commissioning an original piece please dont hesitate to message me. Commission prices start from around 50 british pounds (around 100 US dollars) or the equivalent in your currency. If you are interested in a banner or link exchange with your website get in touch, a selection of my banners are shown above. Also, if you want to add me to your friends I wont turn you down but I do appreciate a message saying hello so I can get to know you! If you use my page to advertise without getting to know me first its likely your message will be deleted.

.. In my spare time I also collect Batman memorabilia & snowglobes from different countries, play with my kittens, dabble with photography (though only for fun) and shop for vintage clothing, i'm also fond of visiting interesting places around England and spending time with my favourite graphic designer.

My current top friends Theme - Great Creative Folks!
(Please note, my top 8 friends always features talented people who have something to offer and who perhaps arent as well known as they should be! So check out their pages!)

Upcoming Events

Ooh La La! Party for Parkinsons Charity Event. Email for details.

Who I'd like to meet:

Anyone with an interest in Art & illustration and with similar tastes to myself. Artists who want to get involved in exhibitions i'm involved with. Also looking to work with interesting individuals doing what I like best, creating artwork and promotional material, bands and burlesque performers are especially welcome! Get in touch if you're interested!

    Darling
    As my MySpace friend, I am including you in something exciting--we have begun to show off my new legit FEATURE FILM! NATASHA KIZMET: THE MOVIE! It has been called BORAT MEETS CANDY by the Denver Post's Bill Husted, and I want your feedback, and the feedback of your MySpace friends! You would be doing me a big favor if you would post this comment so people would know to go the the "My Videos" section of my profile to watch the trailer and the other scenes I have posted. This is my market research as to how well we have done. The film is being shopped as we speak by a major film agent, and we are entering it in Film Festivals! This is exciting, and thanks SO MUCH for your help!!

    Also, I am now on FACEBOOK, and TWITTER---this is a much easier way to stay up to date with my movies progress...just go to
    www.twitter.com/kizmetnatasha
