Described as a fearsome water beast — part crocodile, part beaver — it was known to cause floods and destruction, dragging people into the depths. This illustration reimagines the Afanc through a contemporary lens while staying rooted in folk art traditions. It forms part of an ongoing series celebrating the lesser-known legends of Wales, bringing ancient stories into modern visual storytelling. https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/projects/Blog Post Title One-3zaa9-zlxng-yx395 monthly 0.5 2026-03-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/39a882e5-f7ac-4d91-aab1-aa5e237999df/IMG_0698.jpeg Projects - Observers Needed - Make it stand out St David’s Day 2026 for The Observer newspaper https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/projects/blog-post-title-two-t5my5-k4xmd-sr5gw monthly 0.5 2026-03-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/6dc2b903-9f26-4d54-b671-ecd6e7200344/IMG_0054.jpeg Projects - Welsh folklore and folk art - The Welsh Lady Tradition, Identity and Quiet Resilience The Welsh woman is an enduring cultural icon, instantly recognisable in her traditional dress, tall black hat, and red cloak. Emerging in the 18th and 19th centuries, this distinctive attire became a symbol of national identity during a time when Wales sought to preserve its language and heritage. Often associated with rural life and market traders, the Welsh lady represents resilience, community, and pride. Today, she remains a powerful emblem of Welsh culture, celebrated in art, folklore, and national events such as St David’s Day. https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/projects/blog-post-title-three-y3peb-4lwnz-ebnk3 monthly 0.5 2026-03-20 https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/home daily 1.0 2026-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/85a5a1e0-d422-419d-8ff4-fc328628d9b4/IMG_0461.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/ee733fc2-9979-4c8b-bc6c-fb9c0f77f5af/IMG_0321.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/a94b7fb1-7705-43a6-8228-61c30d02d5e1/IMG_0470.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/50d726e4-5258-4ef5-8801-624957324fec/IMG_0534.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/1a1a16b3-c678-481f-ae18-623150023eaa/IMG_0621.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/71a44ba7-70e8-4249-aab9-9afe12dae7ca/IMG_0629.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/1666eeb4-f8b5-4dc3-b457-cd446696491e/IMG_0462.jpg https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/about daily 0.75 2026-02-13 https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/contact daily 0.75 2026-02-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/17c276d7-8248-4e62-8da1-e5917f1e13a5/IMG_0344.jpg https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/collections daily 0.75 2026-01-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/f71d9e1f-3c3f-490b-8d56-e0bc3b8475e8/IMG_0554.jpeg Placement Design Folk Hearth - Winter Star https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/311af401-b652-48fd-ace6-9dff5ad2f1c1/IMG_0558.jpeg Placement Design Folk Hearth - Ember Bloom https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/a14c6f72-962e-4ee2-886c-52f15a8363f0/IMG_0548.jpeg Placement Design Sea Salt Folklore collection https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/surface-patterns daily 0.75 2026-02-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/836ae6e3-b297-4ac0-902e-a7720f732d80/IMG_0562.jpeg Patterns Collections Woodland animals and trees repeat pattern collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/735f7840-d961-4877-89f8-a6d7905e61ac/IMG_0550.jpeg Patterns Collections Folk art bugs and bees repeat pattern collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/1483e770-52ce-4ad2-afb0-96a1a09b40da/IMG_0559.jpeg Patterns Collections Heritage inspired folk florals and seed heads https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/925bccfb-7081-43b1-98b8-cfd157db253c/IMG_0551.jpeg Patterns Collections Folk art birds and motifs pattern collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/b39c3279-9016-4762-a6b9-c9d124e8d1d7/IMG_0578.jpeg Patterns Collections Black and cream birds, butterflies and tulips repeat pattern collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/39368b4e-731b-4060-bbcd-08544f2fa3ed/IMG_0587.jpeg Patterns Collections Tulip folk art repeat pattern collection https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/ed2aa219-4506-4c38-9d0b-6c33d48bd9d7/IMG_0626.jpeg Patterns Collections Folk meadow stylised flowers and heritage gardens https://www.carolinerosendesign.co.uk/illustrations daily 0.75 2026-03-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/f9465a4d-798c-4679-8817-8322b524d7d6/IMG_0148.jpeg Illustrations Illustration of a red apple with a green leaf and two sliced apple halves, each with a seed core and green leaves, set against a peach and orange background with a red border. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/695a9c2338bc844c9ab33a50/ca8bbfd8-a9bc-455c-af5e-4f22b4e45a5d/IMG_0325.jpeg Illustrations Illustration of a person in black clothing with a yellow hat, laying in a grassy area near a pond, with a fence, tall grass, and a butterfly in the background.
