It does always differ from day to day, but I try and keep a constant, which is to continue to hand paint a print for every season. These are my most joyful days as I connect with my print team and get to think quietly about next collections and ideas while I paint. We responded to these by creating a print where our florals morphed into the bears with fluid painterly brush strokes, with our similar icons nestled in-between. We also created an impactful psychedelic design with pink and red large graphic clouds and stars, where the Care Bears really shone out thanks to their painterly effect.
Inspired by the original watercolour paintings by Elena Kucharik in the early ’80s, the limited-edition collaboration organised in association with UK agent Bulldog Licensing plays on the nostalgia and love of colour and print that is used regularly by Cath Kidston to deliver its recognisable and much-loved products.

I have one last question: How do you fuel your creativity?Cath Kidston has announced it has hand-painted its new range of wistful and dream-like prints to celebrate the 40 th anniversary of the Care Bears™.
Care Bears is a brand that highlights a caring community and inclusivity; one that cheers others on. This felt like a really important message to illustrate this Christmas, and to do this in such a cheerful way was really heartening. This is all done through colour and character and felt so natural with our florals and paint marks. I was hopeful people would respond to the collection – the unapologetic joy cutting through today’s bleak news stories! – and they really did. Inspired by the original watercolour paintings by Elena Kucharik in the early ’80s, the limited edition collaboration – organised in association with Bulldog Licensing – aims to play on the nostalgia and love of colour and print that is used regularly by Cath Kidston to deliver its recognisable products. We should talk about your new Care Bears collaboration. What made Care Bears an attractive brand to design for? You’re right; this is a careful balance and one that takes a long time to achieve. We do this when painting scenery to highlight the character, with often contrasting colours to make the elements sing. This kind of colouration is key in our lilac and yellow rose Care Bear pyjamas. We also use a lot of our archive artworks in collaborations so followers of each brand can recognise the heritage icons from each IP – and marvel at how beautifully they sit together!
Most days start by taking my eldest daughter to the ice rink. Even though that’s at 5AM, I find it very peaceful to watch and work at the same time! Often we are shooting the collections – truly delightful days! – so from the rink I’ll run to a location house. We will shoot all categories in a week, and often the set is buzzing with children, babies, dogs, and our amazing shoot team.
All customers and recipients should ensure they have read the product information carefully, especially if a recipient has any allergies. We really study the drawing style and often purposefully take a different drawing style to shine a light on the original. We also combine the two unexpectedly as this helps create the impact and sense of modernity, while respecting the original artwork. I also love that these new artworks continue to pass on this sentiment as it’s why Care Bears were originally conceived, to be used on greeting cards.
