About Seagrass Designs
My artwork is inspired by a lifelong passion for the coast. Working from home, labradoodle Henry by my side, I sketch and digitally perfect my designs before passing them to a British company to be translated into quality printed products. I am blessed to live a short stroll from the beach on the tranquil Isle of Wight, and absolutely love what I do. I hope my designs make you smile.

Why Seagrass?
Tragically, we have lost up to 92% of our seagrass in the last century. Pollution run off from the land can be harmful to marine plants and animals. Anchors, boat propellers and bad fishing practises have also made an impact. In addition, warming global temperatures make the seas more acidic, harming habitats on which many animals depend for food and shelter.
About Shipmates
Thanks to my loyal and sturdy band of supporters I’m happily still creating my art designs, but have now added a small range of carefully selected coastal gifts from other British brands.

Am over the moon with the cards recently purchased from Jo. As a huge fan of beach huts I fell in love with her new design as soon as I saw it. The seahorse card jumped into my shopping bag too! Quality cards perfect for any occasion. Thank you.

Bought a gorgeous framed print. It arrived within a couple of days, safely packaged. I couldn't be happier, - it's going to look fantastic in my newly renovated bathroom. I highly recommend Seagrass Designs - faultless service and simply beautiful products.

Chuffed to bits to receive my fabulous 2021 coastal calendars! SO artistically designed, beautifully crafted, produced and packaged. I can almost smell the salty sea air!

I'm a huge fan of coastal themed products and am very pleased with the cards just purchased from Jo which arrived promptly and well packaged. I have previously bought some of Jo's prints whilst visiting the Isle of Wight and these are now framed, giving lasting memories of our holiday.
Debbie
Really pleased with my purchase. The cards are excellent quality and I love the prints. Jo was extremely helpful when I contacted her prior to ordering and was quick to respond to my queries. The order arrived quickly, well before the expected delivery date. Overall, I would highly recommend the products and company.

Today I received one of your gorgeous tea towels from a friend. It was such a lovely surprise and picked me up in a really horribly low week. I've followed you on Instagram for a while and love all your products. They're even better 'in the flesh'!

Very sweet art prints. Perfect for a child's bedroom in a coastal cottage.

Absolutely love my calendar. It's stunning, and even better it's made locally. Jo even delivered it to my work as she knew I wouldn't be at home, what a star!
Sue
Excellent products and great service, I have the cards over my desk so I always have a sea view!
Charlotte
Wonderful yet again, I will certainly order more cards when they run out. Excellent communication.

I bought a framed print 'Buoy and gull' when I was in a little shop in Falmouth last summer and fell in love with Seagrass Designs. So, when I was thinking of decor inspiration for our summer wedding on the East Sussex coast I thought of Jo's work and bought of lots of different cards to frame for the tables and for people to take home afterwards.

Jo was extremely helpful when I ordered some bespoke sized prints. They arrived in no time at all, and are now looking brilliant in their frames.

Just received some lovely quote cards from Jo... Gorgeous quality and just that bit different to anything else on the market... Really lovely, very pleased!

Just to say that we absolutely adore your photo prints with words, they really capture this beautiful Island and it's coast. We have quite a few already. For me Seagrass Designs is the go-to place for coastal decorative items. Thank you and please continue the good work.
Sandra
Just received my gorgeous mug and Christmas cards. I love them! Thank you so much. I have two of your mugs now and might have to order some more cards.
Justine
Gorgeous Xmas cards arrived at the weekend from Jo at Seagrass. I absolutely love them! I ordered a mix of the designs, - deer, fox and my favourite polar bear. All tied with eco friendly ribbon and twine in a card envelope. Perfect!
Tracey
Ordered a beautiful picture with a lovely quote which meant a great deal to my partner and I as we had our first date on the beach. It arrived in very good time and was well packaged. A stunning centrepiece for our bedroom. I certainly won't hesitate to use again... fantastic service. Thank you.
