In black and white

Abbey McCulloch has some beautiful charcoal sketches

up at The Collective on the Russh Magazine blog.

Nice.

What fine teeth you have

Porcelain beaver, raccoon & muskrat skulls

with shiny gold plated teeth from Beetle & Flor

fit enough?

The Fit To Print exhibition opens tomorrow night

at No Vacancy gallery at the QV in Melbourne

and my About A Girl print will be there!

She will be available as a

limited edition 11x16" giclee print,

but enough about me,

there will be over 40 other artists (see below!)

with prints for sale at $20.oo-$200.oo

and it will run until Christmas Eve.

Speaking of the lady above,

she's also tucked away quite nicely in

the latest Semi-Permanent annual.

She gets around this one.

nice to finally meet you!

There's a new little lady

hanging about in my neighborhood.

If you would like to take her home

just pay my etsy store a vist,

she's available in two sizes, 8x10" & 5x7".

what a dork.

I never thought the day would come

when I would be jealous of a rabbit's outfit.

Sure, their little cotton tails are nice

and their fur is so super soft

that I wouldn't mind it around my neck,

but this is out of hand.

Curse you mademoiselle lapin.

I need a wall...

This pretty lady makes me want to paint a wall,

with or without the tutu.

Her name is Mari Kubota and I found

her in this great book I just bought,

'the age of feminine drawing'.

It's very good.

third times a charm...

Or at least I hope it is.

This sneak peak of my 'On The Wall' submission

was my third and final attempt at colour ways.

On the wall

I was one of the lucky lasses

selected to be a part of

the 'On The Wall' exhibition

organised by Leeloo and The Finders Keepers

which will be held at their

Sydney event next week.

I am in very good company indeed:

Abby Seymour :: Alex Louisa :: amy borrell
Amy Bortolazzo :: Anika Cook :: Bec Winnel
Bessie Nunes :: Brooke Holm :: Danielle Reck
Emma Leonard :: enyaj :: Erin Flannery
Genevieve Ryan :: Grace McKellar :: James Thomson

Kareem Rizk :: Kate McCarthy :: Kirbee Lawler
Lalita Lu :: Laura Carey :: Lauren Carney
Manuela Strano :: Matthew Roland :: Meeri Anneli
Moofus :: Natalie Perkins:: Nicholas R Eagar

Hopefully I don't embarrass myself...

Another little lady

I came up with for Indigo a while back...

a new friend...

Work in progress...

dear blog,

Dear Bones,

I apologise for the neglect

but I've been super busy.

Here are some pretty pictures to make you feel better

so just get over it okay?

They are by photographer

Kim Kyung Soo For Korean Vogue.

They must really know their stuff in Korea.

Incy Wincy

I would be happy to let a family of spiders

live in my room if they could make me one of these.

I think it is possibly one of

the most beautiful things I have seen.

'aunty peggy has departed'

everything looks better in czech

These are from the book

'Animals We Love' by czech illustrator Mirko Hanak

and published in 1972.

I think someway or another

I will have to get my hands on a copy...

more finding and keeping...

Just a little feature on the Finders Keepers blog today

and if you are in Sydney,

you will have to come visit me

at the next event at CarriageWorks

on the 3rd & 4th of December.

lucky boy sunday

I happened upon these cute as bug's ear softies and pillows

by lucky boy sunday the other day.

They are kind of creepy in the very best way.

so much pretty

I don't know anything about this person

except that they make real pretty photographs,

and that's all I need to know.

enid, margot & lydia

Looking at portraiture this week and I remembered these

little ladies from issue 7 of Lula magazine.

They are by Swedish artist Jonas Lofgren.

Margot's my favorite.

Julie

Today I wish to be Julie Verhoeven.

She uses pretty colours and I like them.

Jealous.

indigo and lace

I have been freelancing for my old stomping ground,

indigo boutique,

and here is the latest illustration...

I wish my eyes were as pretty as hers.
