This one’s for the fans 💙

A huge thank you to @pritchards_pencil for creating this wonderful celebration of life in the stands, ahead of @ipswichtown vs @fulhamfc in the @premierleague

Miriam’s artwork is full to the brim with individual characters all enjoying life at Portman Road - hipsters, casuals, families… and of course mascots, all showing their support for Town.

This work of art is available for you to own now (link in bio) but first here’s Miriam to tell the story behind the design:

“When I go to games, a lot of the time I’m actually watching people in the crowd,” she says. It’s one of my favourite things to see the emotion, and to see how different people respond to the football and what they’re watching - the highs and the lows.

“People on their feet, head in hands, different generations - a whole heap of diversity in the crowds, and seeing people from all parts of life coming together to support their team. I love the football, but I really love to draw the people.”

“The design is about the Ipswich fan community and how football brings people together,” Miriam continues. “They’re not on their phones - they’re enjoying the beautiful game.

“If you look carefully you can see all the different characters I’ve tried to capture - two mates from uni who meet every weekend to watch the game together, a kid on his grandad’s shoulders, who will be a lifelong fan.

“It’s been cool to be a little part of Ipswich’s journey and to celebrate community, which Ipswich fans clearly have in abundance.”

Fancy having this design on your wall and sparking joy every time you look at it? Good news - for just £16.50 you can own a beautiful A3 print, shipped to your door - available to buy now from our website (link in bio).

Miriam’s poster will also be seen in the shops and pubs around town from the weekend, thanks to the support of Ipswich Central.

Big up the Town fans - bring on Fulham.

Call Me Ted is pleased to announce our first Olympian artist 🥇

Miriam Pritchard is goalkeeper for Team GB’s hockey team and also a wonderfully talented illustrator, under the name @pritchards_pencil ✍️

We absolutely love her unique way of capturing the beautiful game and are delighted she’s designed our poster for @ipswichtown vs @fulhamfc in the @premierleague ⚽️

“I’ve really enjoyed mixing my two passions - art and sport,” she says. “It feels nice to tap into that side of my life in a creative way.

“A lot of my work is about celebrating community, places and storytelling. I love to tell stories of characters who inhabit communities and I think football brings that together nicely.”

Her poster is a really joyful celebration of fan culture, and we’ll share it here tomorrow.

“I’ve always loved the posters that Call Me Ted produces, and having such a range of different artists who are all celebrating the game via their own practice - it’s so cool,” she says.

“Kelly Anna’s was the one I think I first saw and loved - it’s an honour to be part of that and it’s been so fun to create and tell those little stories with the drawing.”

We’re super excited to share Miriam’s design with you - in the meantime make sure you follow @pritchards_pencil to enjoy more of Miriam’s amazing designs 🖼️

& just like that it’s finished. Thank you to everyone who came to my first London show ‘Love at the Lido’ over the last few months! It’s been so much fun and makes me very happy knowing how many people have a Pritchard’s Pencil on their wall at home. Have some prints available for anyone who missed out 💙

Everything starts with a small idea
