Katie's inspirations include Stravinsky, Joni Mitchel, Coco Rosie, Audrey Niffenegger, Poppy (Katie's cat), ballet and yoga. I was delighted to be able to contribute to help TLC - not only is it a worth while cause but I thought the idea of curating a deck of cards in this way was a really inspired idea. I am excited to see all the different designs together. I love playing with symmetry in my work. Working with symmetry and faces looking at each other is something I often do and this fitted in nicely with the traditional layout for card designs. I wanted to do my own modern take on a traditional playing card. I am proud to support Transplant links through contributing my illustration. I really admire how it’s a charity that not only provides life saving treatments, it also educates and enables doctors in deprived hospitals to develop their own skills to be able to treat their patients. I am pleased to think that money raised through the auction will help empower doctors to help their future patients and save many lives.Please note that final invoices will include buyers' premium at 27% (inclusive of VAT) added to the hammer price. Ewbank's are waiving all vendor commission for the charity. Transplant Links Community is a UK registered non-religious and non-political charity that saves the lives of children and adults in the developing world who suffer from life-threatening end stage kidney disease. Offering teaching and advice, and carrying out living kidney transplants, sharing their knowledge with local medical teams in a variety of countries - so that sustainable transplant programmes become a possibility for the future.

Dan Hillier. King of Diamonds. 1/1 print with gold leaf, pencil, pen and ink. Signed and dated '17. 72.1 x 50.3cm. Framed. Dan lives and works in Hackney, London, making art for himself and for exhibitions and a few galleries, and he sometimes collaborates with others, including Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre in London, The Folio Society, rock bands Architects, Royal Blood, The Broken Family Band and Steven James Adams, and most recently creating the opening titles to BBC1's major 6-part drama 'Requiem'. Dan's most recent solo show, 'Ceremony', was held at Saatchi Gallery, November 2016 - January 2017. In 2015 he was invited by the British Council to represent Great Britain at the Giant Creator Show in Beijing, China. Perhaps that's why they call him 'The Ambassador'. Framed. TLC is a great organisation and I love the idea of a disparate group of artists making a varied pack of cards without knowing what the others have been up to. I like the archetype of the King, and diamonds have a beautiful symbolism in many cultures. I had a loose idea of the diamond as indication of the enlightened mind, as found in Buddhist symbology, when I made this, and wanted the piece to be quite cosmic and have a somewhat archetypal feel to it.TLC is clearly a life-saving, life-enhancing charity that propagates amazing, important work, giving people a chance at life that they might otherwise lose.
