Or, in this case, a very, very fun web! We headed out this morning to TANGLE, which is part of the Perth International Arts Festival and had the best fun ever. Our adventure in photos is to follow but...

Some exciting things are happening soon. One of those being that I have signed-up, registered, and paid for a three day children’s book writers/illustrators retreat with SCBWI. That happens in June....

Addictive. Yes, a little.

I was a rugby widow last night. Not such a terrible thing, really, as I took the opportunity to work on another illustration. Such a nice time to work, at night, when little people are sleeping and the...

Another new piece and a little revelation.

I have figured something out about myself over these last few days. I’ve figured out that I am an ‘all or nothing’ kind of person. A ‘go hard or go home’ type of gal. A ‘poop or get off the pot’ lady....

Last one for a few days, I think

I don’t want to burn out! Having said that, I can’t actually 100% guarantee this will be the last one for a few days. Although I sort of hope so, because I could do with a few nights off. Unfortunately...

Happy almost Easter!

I made this yesterday for a friend who said I needed to do a Bunny illustration before I took a little break for Easter. It’s an old joke, but it’s still my all-time Easter favourite! Happy Easter,...

Two days, two new pieces.

Normally, I hand paint all, or part of, whatever I’m working on, but this time I have completely coloured in photoshop. Every last little bit. I think maybe  I like it? I think maybe it could go in the...

I know what I like, and I like what I know.

Nope. I don’t think I can not paint. Was that sentence full of double (triple) (many) negatives? What I mean to say is, I think I have to stick with my half hand painted, half photoshopped...

Upcycling (nothing to do with bicycles)

I mentioned a while ago that I am going to be upcycling some of my 365 illustrations – making them a bit better, a bit nicer, a bit more polished. Some of the last bunch of illustrations have been...
