“Holly Tomkins created a really fantastic red pillar box mascot costume for the POSTED & The Girls stand at the Art Car Boot Fair 2011, London. I was absolutely delighted with every aspect of the costume, particularly the detailing on the front. Holly even wore it herself on the day of the fair, and was the perfect jovial mascot. She is a very good sport, a pleasure to work with, and I look forward to working with her again!” June 22, 2011

“BIXY” – WILD IN ART CHARITY PROJECT – 2011
"In 2011 we were approached to become involved in a Bournemouth Town project with Wild in Art. Businesses were asked to sponsor life-sized lions and get artists to decorate them – they would then be displayed across Bournemouth Town for a period of 6 weeks before being sold at a charity auction to raise money for the Born Free Foundation and local charity Julia’s House. We asked Holly if she would take on the decorating of our BIC lion and she immediately agreed. The result was a vibrant and distinctive lion that really stood out in “the pride” immediately drawing people to look and admire. Holly cleverly used the colour scheme of our Star and gave the Lion an incredible glam rock look which summed up the excitement of our events."

STAR MASCOT - 2008
"In 2008 we commissioned Holly to make a mascot to represent the Bournemouth International Centre and Bournemouth Pavilion. We had some rough ideas but Holly had the creative ability to put our ideas into a complete design that through colour and shape gave us exactly the fun element of our business that we wanted to represent. Our Star has been a great success and has been seen at the Bournemouth Christmas Light Switch on, various carnivals and outdoor events and appears regularly at our major launches. Her design, work ethic and communication skills during the process were excellent and when we had an opportunity in 2011 to utilise her great skills again we contacted her immediately.

I hope that we can work with Holly again in the future as her skills, unique creative style and understanding of what you need is faultless."
