Baby design

I don't often do baby designs so this is a rare one for me. I'll be doing another colour way for a girls version as well.

I think I need a week off from the card designs as I'm starting to drag my feet a little with them. It gets like that once you've been working on something solidly for months. I won't be taking five any time soon unfortunately as the next few months are important, but when I do man they'll be sweet!

Princess

Prepare yourselves for a massively girly post as I've gone all princessy. Not literally but from an illustration point of view. I've done so much Christmas stuff lately I needed a change of scenery. After lunch with my friend and her two cheeky little girls I decided to do a couple of girl friendly designs. Something I don't often do. I'm quite pleased with the results as I went into it a little cynically.

New giftware designs

Christmas Christmas and more Christmas! I swear by December I'm going to be sick of the sight of Santa and his associates. The penguins in the image above complete my set from last week and the snowman leads me onto another.


In an attempt to stop myself going mad and developing strong anti Christmas feelings I thought it would be wise to drop in a everyday design every now and then. Arrr! Pirates! Who doesn't like pirates. Well after Pirates of the Caribbean 4 I suspect a lot people aren't big fans but in general I think they bring the kid out of us all.

Last giftware designs before trip

My giftware rep has put his trip to the US back a week which has given me much needed time to produce a few more designs which I hope will catch the eye of prospective buyers. It's hard to say how successful the trip will be what with the economy being the way it is. These things are out of my hands and all I can do is carry on regardless and stay positive!

I'm now off to prep these designs for the trip at the new studio my rep works out of. It must be an improvement on the Georgian Terrace which for so many years was the base of operations. Apparently it's open plan and very modern which sounds great.
