It’s funny how our minds work. I posted last week about how I was in the biggest creative rut; I had too many ideas and not enough time, which felt so overwhelming that I just stopped making altogether. Then as soon as I shared that, it was like a weight had been lifted. The fog
You know those moments when you meet someone for the first time and before they’ve even said a word, it already feels like you’ve known them all your life? Well that was how I felt when I heard about Gift Boss. Receiving the brief for this project was like catching up with an old friend
Hello October! It’s the month of Halloween and while I find myself getting more and more into this holiday with each passing year, I still can’t bring myself to draw anything scary or gory to mark the celebrations. I guess orange and black will never be my thing. So instead, here’s something pink and shiny
Although things have gotten a bit quiet here lately, there’s been a lot action of behind-the-scenes as I work on a brand new and very exciting project. It’s one I’ve dreamt of bringing to life for the better part of my creative career and I can’t wait to share it with you! This shift in

Clearly I’m in denial about the crazy passing of time (nothing new there).
My, the days just whiz by. I blinked and somehow nearly a whole month has passed since my last post. There’s been a lot happening behind the scenes lately – Lauren’s started daycare, I’ve found part-time work, and adjusting to these big changes has left little room for creative side projects. I did manage to
I tried so very hard to draw some winter flowers for this month’s wallpaper, really I did. It was suitably freezing in my studio, I’d picked some beautiful camelias from our garden as inspiration, and I had a hot cup of tea steaming beside my sketchpad for good measure. But when it came to putting
I think it’s safe to say that this is the biggest home project I’ve ever undertaken. Although I may be a dab hand at small crafts, room makeovers aren’t my forte so I generally stay well away. With my lack of knowledge around power tools, I have (quite well founded) fears that I’ll put a
