Launceston is one of those places that stops you in your tracks. The Normans knew it. So did the medieval wool traders, the Civil War soldiers, and the pilgrims heading west into Cornwall. I've been wanting to draw this one for a long time. Original watercolour and ink, available now as a travel poster with a personal letter from me written from the town itself.

Some bridges are just bridges. The one at Wadebridge has been standing since the fifteenth century, long before the town grew up around it and took its name. It has watched the River Camel come and go beneath it ever since.
This is the newest print in the Ella's Adventures travel poster series. Watercolour and ink, painted from the water's edge. Every poster (from A5 size to A0), comes with a letter from Ella, written from the place itself. Part history, part personal observation, it gives you the story behind the artwork and the reason this place found its way into the collection.

The matching postcard is available too.

There is a hill near Lifton, just south of the A30, where a little copse of beech trees stands right on the line between Devon and Cornwall. Officially, they are Cookworthy Knapp. To everyone who has ever driven past and felt their heart lift at that familiar green shape, they are simply the Nearly Home Trees.
Nobody quite agrees on why they were planted. A heartbroken farmer and a heart-shaped wood, some say. An old quarry, the landowner wanted to hide, say others, rather less romantically. Either way, they have been gathering names and lifting hearts for over a century.
Ella has written home about them, and the postcard and poster are in the collection now. Find out what arrives in the post.
Every picture tells a story.

Every pictures tells a story! But, the poster is only half of it, each poster arrives with a letter from Ella, telling the true history of the place in the picture. A piece of art for your wall, and a story for your imagination.

A ten-gun brig with an unremarkable career.
A twenty-two-year-old whose nose nearly cost him the job.
Five years of seasickness. Twenty years of sitting on what he found.
Ella is in Woolwich on the anniversary of the launch of HMS Beagle.
The May 11th letter is available now.

Know someone with a 10th of May birthday?

This letter was written from Promontory Summit, Utah. The exact spot where America's first transcontinental railroad was completed on May 10th, 1869.
Ella writes home about the golden spike (fashioned from 17.6-karat gold, removed immediately after the ceremony, now in a museum named after the man who missed the ceremonial swing), the two locomotives that met nose-to-nose and never met again, and the twelve thousand Chinese workers whose contribution was largely written out of the official record for the better part of a century.

It is a proper piece of history, printed on A4 and posted to you or directly to your recipient, and it arrives with a date on it that means something.

Letters Home: On This Day. A personalised piece of history.

On the 9th of May, 1874, two horses pulled Bombay's first tram out of Colaba and into history. The fare was three annas. The pace was five miles per hour.
Our May 9th letter is written from Colaba Causeway, where that first route began. Ella walks the original journey northward through Crawford Market, a building donated to the city in 1869 by the Parsi merchant Cowasji Jehangir, designed by William Emerson, and decorated with friezes by Lockwood Kipling. Ella follows the tram network through ninety years of city life, from horse power to electric cars to double-deckers, to the evening in 1964 when a crowd gathered at Bori Bunder simply to say goodbye.

Printed on both sides of a single A4 sheet and sent to you by post, this letter makes a quietly extraordinary gift for anyone born, married, or otherwise anchored to the 9th of May. A personalised piece of history, tucked into an envelope.

I dragged myself out of bed before 7am for a street dance that's been happening since before anyone can remember, in a town that once celebrated nearly being destroyed by a dragon by dancing through each other's houses. Cornwall, you never disappoint. This is the story of Flora Day, Helston, and it's the 8th of May letter in the Letters Home collection. Know someone with a May 8th birthday? Or someone who loves Flora Day and would genuinely love to receive this through the post?

Today Ella visits Billund, Denmark. Home of Lego. The toy that has brought joy to generations of children, and brought grown adults to their knees on a dark landing at 2am.
It turns out the brick that has been silently ambushing bare feet since 1955 was the result of decades of fires, financial ruin, a Great Depression, and one very stubborn Danish carpenter.
Honestly, given everything it took to create it, the least you can do is watch where you're walking.
