Ros Shiers produces a boutique range of products featuring her unique illustrations under the name I heart RS. Her work combines a passion for all things decorative and beautiful with a love of strong, bold, graphic illustration. Her illustrations combine burlesque femme fatales with a love of nature. Birds to butterflies, skeletons to insects all feature in beautifully intricate detail. Influenced by a love of pattern and detail, vintage ephemera and victoriana, her inspirations come from various childhood memories:
a trip to the circus, her dressing up box and stories such as Alice in Wonderland. Ros has worked as a freelance illustrator since graduating with first class honours from
Brighton University, with clients including Nokia, Ford, Per una and Hodder & Stoughton. Ros lives in London working from her West London home. Her products have been
featured in various publications including The Telegraph, The Independent, New and More magazine.
