Kim Hubball’s design is based on the verse Four Calling Birds from the song The Twelve Days of Christmas. She wanted to focus on the birds themselves in her design, and has painted them as large as possible to wrap around the Snowman’s body. The design is a contemporary take on Scandinavian folk art illustration and uses bold colours and geometric patterns.
