About WigglyLines Studio

WigglyLines Studio is an independent illustration studio based in the UK, creating cosy illustrations, sparkly vinyl stickers, and animal art prints.

It’s run by Alexandra Martin, a recent Graphic Design graduate from the University of Salford, Manchester (Class of 2025).

This studio didn’t begin as a business plan. It began as a way to keep making art slowly, thoughtfully, and without pressure, and it’s grown into a small but intentional creative practice built around quality, care, and gentle humour.

What I Make

I create illustrated stickers and prints designed to feel comforting, playful, and well-made.

You’ll find:

  • Sparkly, waterproof vinyl stickers made to last on laptops, journals, and everyday objects

  • Small art prints featuring animals, soft colour palettes, and calm visual energy

  • Designs that are meant to quietly improve a space or a day, rather than shout for attention

Everything is illustrated digitally, then printed and finished in-house with close attention to how it actually feels once it’s made.

Quality isn’t an aesthetic choice, it’s a value.

I care deeply about:

  • Materials: thick vinyl, durable laminates, and 230gsm matte paper that absorbs colour softly

  • Finish: prints that feel substantial in your hands, stickers that don’t peel or fade quickly

  • Longevity: making objects people can keep, not just scroll past

These choices aren’t about being “premium” for the sake of it. They’re about respect, for the artwork, and for the person receiving it.

Why Quality Matters Here

A Studio That Builds, Not Just Sells

Wiggly Lines Studio isn’t only a shop.

Alongside stickers and prints, I also helped create ArtQuest, a free Android app designed to help artists draw without pressure. It generates gentle prompts, saves artwork privately, and rewards consistency rather than perfection.

There’s also an ongoing blog where I write about:

  • sticker care and materials

  • paper quality and printing

  • creative process and slow art

  • building a small studio thoughtfully

All of these things exist for the same reason: to make creativity feel approachable, calm, and human.

Where to Shop

The main shop lives on Etsy, where orders are handled and fulfilled.
This website exists as a home for the studio, a place to share values, process, and long-term work.

If you’re a customer, collaborator, stockist, or organisation looking to work with an independent illustrator, you’re in the right place.

In Short

Wiggly Lines Studio is about:

  • slow creativity in a fast world

  • thoughtful materials and small details

  • art that feels good to hold, not just look at

  • building something sustainable, honest, and human

Thank you for being here.

Every line has a story.
