Sad Hoggy by the lake
I was looking through my folders yesterday and came across this illustration. This was originally made for my book "Hoggy" but I've later on decided to replace it with a more striking image, this one
I still like this painting though, so here we are :)

Everything and Nothing
I am a universe - complex, mysterious, full of life. I'm also just a grain of sand - soon to be lost forever, forgotten. How can I be everything and nothing at the same time?
Sea always makes me feel tiny and insignificant, in awe of its beauty and power. It makes me ask myself questions I know I can't answer.

Painting time!
Here's a sneaky peek at my new painting. I've tidied up my desk a bit before the picture was taken, usually it's a LOT messier, no matter how hard I try to keep it neat. Tell me about your working spaces - neat or chaos?

Irina Andreeva
I have always been a fan of simplicity in art. A few lines can tell a story, evoke a strong emotion. When I look at amazing felt sculptures by Irina Andreeva, I want to smile, laugh, cry. These sculptures say so much. They're so wonderfully simple and at the same time so complex, so full of life.

Bunnies Picnic
I have been commissioned to create a banner and a few elements for a website selling beautiful clothes for little girls. It was a fun project and I'm so pleased to finally see the result. I think it looks very cute :) What do you think?

Christmas Cracker
I've started working on Christmas illustrations for my Etsy shop, going to have them as prints and as greeting cards.
Here's a brand new illustration
And these are from a couple of years ago, I think they'll make nice cards. What do you think?

Muse
First time I've tried gouache paints and I really liked them, they work brilliantly with my favorite acrylics
My own little muse seems to be on holiday right now, I'm supposed to be drawing Christmas cards and have no good ideas, not one! Muse, come back!
