You won't relent until You have it all

Many waters cannot quench this love

Come be the fire inside of me
Come be the flame upon my heart

Until You and I are one

please go check her out. i am seriously in love with her work and you will be too. her illustrations are subtle and organic - really just beautiful. turns out she's only 3 years older than me and she's already done work for companies like faber and faber, volvo and puffin books. not to mention she was chosen as one of ten up-and-coming design names who are blazing a trail in the UK today.
