Description
Aquatic life and sea creatures illustrated and quirkily labelled by artist Amber Davenport. This fine art-quality print on 210gsm acid-free archival paper is framed in obeche wood in a choice of finishes. The acrylic glaze is light in weight and optically the same as glass. Made in the UK, it's ready to hang on your wall. Amber Davenport is an illustrator based in the North West of England. Her work is vibrant, lively and filled with pattern. She works primarily with acrylic paints and is inspired by a love of plants, wildlife and travel. She launched her business from her bedroom while at university in Manchester and graduated in 2018. She is driven by a desire to fill people's homes with happiness, colour and escapism in the form of beautifully illustrated wall art and accessories. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love the Sea Creatures print for its playful and colourful depiction of marine life, making it a versatile piece for various interiors. It works particularly well in children's bedrooms, nurseries, or even a marine-themed bathroom or study. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with neutral or pastel backgrounds to let the artwork stand out, or complement it with other ocean-inspired accessories like textured coral or glass vases. For a more curated look, hang it above a light-toned sideboard or within a gallery wall of similar motifs to create a lively, yet cohesive, display.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
