Come for you

Oil paintings by Kristin Vestgard.

So amazing.

Cartography

Title pages from maps published between 1880 and 1920.

Their composition's knock my socks off.

See more here.

For Sale

I wished I lived in this building in Glasgow. Or I owned a building that I could paint in a similar fashion. Or knew someone who would allow me to paint their building.

Don't forget about the MASSIVE GIVEAWAY!

Still a couple more days to enter...

Abandoned

Collages of abandoned houses by Seth Clark.

Also, I entered the Yen Young Australian Art Award, did you?

Groupings

These are by Jiakuann on Flickr.

Don't forget about the GIVEAWAY,

it closes midnight Christmas eve and is open to anyone!

Our cheeks are nice and rosy (GIVEAWAY!)

Ho Ho Ho!

I feel festive, so I would like to give some loot way.

Prepare yourselves, because this is

my very first

To be in the running to win:

1 x copy of my 'Prufrock' zine

1 x 5x7" print of 'Girl Reading'

1 x 8x10" print of 'Bird And The Bees'

1 x 11x16" print of 'About A Girl'

1 x A4 CUSTOM ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATION made by ME,

All you have to do is go to my Facebook page and leave a comment

THIS POST.

*Entries close at midnight on Christmas Eve*

(Melbourne, Australia time)

Made by hand

I received a little present in the post this week,

a copy of Hand Made Illustration

edited by Eva Minguet,

AND

I'm inside!

As well as 16 other pretty amazing illustrators,

including Brandi Milne (cover image), Eszra Roise (third image), Erika Yamashiro (fourth image), Kelly Thompson, Sabine Pieper,

Denise Van Leeuwen.

AND

My Harlequin illustration is even on the back cover,

nice.

And just to toot my own horn a little longer, I did an interview with The Clothes Maiden which you can read here.

Terra-rific

I really want a terrarium.

One of these from Miniscapes would do very nicely.

Cut Cut Cut

Nice sketch book from Lucille Michielle...

Pretty In Pink

I drew some presents for the Rebecca Taylor website.

Do you need a dress? They have nice ones!

Horsing around

I am really into horses at the moment

and these paintings by

Lisa Golightly

really float my boat.

Second Nature

I have been a fan of Elke Kramer's jewelry for quite some time

and the look book for her

SS10/11 collection

does not disappoint!

Very much so

Pretty Little Thieves

Great name, great name...

I am quite enamoured of these oil paintings by Emma Bennett.

She must go through a lot of black paint.

Also, Amanda from 'Here Comes The Sun' is having a big giveaway at the moment (one of my prints is included in the prize), so to be in the running just head over here.

And thank you to everyone that has visited me at the markets/exhibition over the past week (you know who you are!), you all made my day!

And, there is a little post about my work on Daydream Lily today, one of my favourite blogs!

Bird & The Bees

She nearly killed me,

but she's finished.

Hooray!

I couldn't decide which colour way too do,

so she is available in

'Natural' and 'Coloured'

in 5x7" or 8x10".

On the Road Again

Sanoii + Six

have just released their new collection

'On The Road'

which includes the fabric print I helped them come up with.

The whole collection is really, really gorgeous

(now available in their online store!)

and Sam & Vienna were such a dream to work with.

How stunning is their look book!

The model is so beautiful,

and I am always a sucker for milkmaid-braids.
