Some Friday entertainment. Oh, to be able to dance like that!!

Je voudrais bien voir une collection de modes d'été

Monday's finds.

A little bit of folk...

A couple of amazing artists, Evan B. Harris (above) and Katy Horan (below). I just love the folk element in their artwork.

Take a look at this animation by FashionBuddha using Evan's illustrations (found via About Today) and this video using Katy's (found via Booooooom). Beautiful!

Presents

Got some really lovely gifts for christmas. This bar of chocolate has some great packaging (and yummy contents, of which has disappeared unfortunately, ooops!) and a fantastic package from T (thankyou!) of many, many matchbox labels. Here are some of my favourites...

Another image I did for Pearson education.

Brrrrr...

Trying to keep warm today...not very easy with these two little devils crowding the heater!

Beautiful view from the studio this evening.

Amazing papercuts by artist Elsa Mora (found via Camilla Engman)

Happy New Year

I hope everyone had a thoroughly enjoyable christmas and New Years eve. What an exhausting 2008! I'm not quite sure where it went but it ended very nicely indeed. It was our first christmas at our house with my mum, dad and brother staying. I think it went really well, not as stressful as I thought it would be!! Lots of food and drink and a nice country walk, ending with a hot cider in the pub. Perfect!

Now's the time to look forward to the year ahead. Hopefully this will be a year to remember with lots of creativity and productiveness!
