A drawing of an orange tabby cat, looking rather unimpressed as it walks along, draped, perhaps unintentionally, in Christmas lights. It wears a stripy green party hat. Surrounding this scene are floating stars, snowflakes and a Christmas stocking, on a pink background. Above it, red letters read: ‘“The Christmas Cat of Medway” A stray cat delivers tiny notes of encouragement across the towns’. Below everything, the words ‘B Cre8ive’ float in a small pink bubble.

Introducing another of our brilliant team members: our talented artist, Andie! 🎨

‘Hey! I’m Andie. I’m a full time student in media and design, with a huge love for art! I’ve been drawing for a long time, mostly just for myself, and not in any kind of professional setting.
A digital drawing of Andie, sitting cross legged in front of a pink star, smiling. Andie has pink hair and wears black jeans and boots, and a white t-shirt with peaches and text on, which reads ‘peach crush’ and ‘sweet fresh’. This image has an orange border, and around it is a golden brown honeycomb pattern with another orange trim. The B Cre8ive logo sits in the bottom left hand corner.

A grey sky with tree branches. Spiders hang from them, a crow perches, and a few bats are out flying. A tattered scarecrow with a pumpkin for a head sits in grass at the bottom of the image, smiling, with two gravestones either side. Large back letters read: ‘THE PORTRAITS OF FORT AMHERST’. Beneath this, in smaller letters, it reads: ‘During restoration works, an artist is commissioned to paint portraits of volunteers at Fort Amherst. When the paintings are unveiled, each sitter’s reflection in the frame is slightly… wrong - older, thinner, wearing uniforms from centuries past. And one painting starts whispering in the tunnels.’

Glowing white writing on a dark grey background. In large, dripping letters, it reads: ‘THE CHATHAM DOCkYARD WATCHMAN’. In smaller letters below, it reads: ‘When the Dockyard closed, a few old security guards stayed on to keep watch over the empty sheds. One night, one of them radios in, saying he’s seen the ghost fleet returning - ships docking silently, their crews pale and dripping wet. Then the signal cuts out.’

An image formed of dark and light grey shapes, blurred like paint scraped vertically. The effect is like a scene viewed through a foggy window. In the centre are the words: ‘The Last Bus from the Pentagon. The 101 night bus from the Pentagon Centre used to run until midnight - now it only appears when it’s foggy. Passengers say the driver never speaks, the ticket machine works without power, and those who ride all the way to the terminus at Capstone Valley are never seen again.’

Cobwebs spiral around the edges of a dark grey square, forming a circular frame. A lone spider hangs to the left. In the centre sit the words: ‘THE BELLS’ in large capital letters, like a newspaper article. Below this, it reads, in smaller letters, ‘BENEATH THE RIVER’. Below this, also in smaller letters, it reads: ‘Every year at low tide, when the Medway mudflats glisten like oil, the faint tolling of church bells echoes from beneath the river. Locals say it’s the old church of St Mary’s, lost to the floods centuries ago - but this year, the bells are louder… and someone’s name is being rung.’
