Please to meet you!
We're O What A Feeling: Textile & Paper Goods Co., an art studio specialising in cheerful stationery and quirky surface pattern designs. Founded by Gillian Lake-Thompson in the spring of 2015, O What A Feeling now makes its home at The Yard Studios in Winchester, a shared artist studio. Our cards, notebooks and art prints are illustrated and hand-lettered in our Winchester studio and then digitally printed onto luxuriously thick FSC-certified paper at Sarsen Press, a local, independent print shop here in Winchester.
We ♥ Instagram! You can find us there @owhatafeeling sharing daily studio news and glimpses into our design process.
We cut our teeth selling on Etsy and this year have ventured into the exciting world of wholesale! If you are a shopkeeper with a lovely shop of any shape or size and would like to stock our cards, please get in touch! You can also view our wholesale catalogue, our generous trade policies and sign up for our super special stockists-only newsletter on our Stockists page!
Gillian graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Textiles & Fashion from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (NSCAD) in Canada, followed by an MA in Textile Design at the Winchester School of Art in 2014. When not folding cards and running to the post office to post Etsy orders, she can be found doodling in her sketchbook, pulling weeds in her allotment, baking sourdough bagels, watering her 30+ houseplants, looking at dog videos on Instagram and learning how to rollerskate.
