inspiration behind the collection
Drawings of the Med is a growing collection of hand-drawn, digital works and paintings, shaped by the colours, food and slower pace of Mediterranean holidays and British summers by the sea. The collection reflects on the everyday moments that make a place feel warm, nostalgic and deeply familiar, the kind of memories that stay with us forever.
Hilltop towns, Italian tomatoes, seaside suppers, striped parasols, swimwear and coastal landscapes appear throughout the works, drawn from still life, photographs and memory.

studio practice
Mila May is an artist living and working by the sea in Falmouth, Cornwall. With a degree in Printed Textile Design from Falmouth University, her practice sits somewhere between painting and printmaking, working with acrylic, relief inks and mixed media.
Influenced by traditional screen-printing techniques, thin layers of acrylic are brushed and buffed into panel and paper over time. Colour is built slowly through a process of layering, revealing and reworking, creating paintings rich in softness, depth and texture.
Playful forms and warm muted colours sit at the heart of Mila's work.
