A chihauhau a cat and a little bit of love

There's a new little gallery opening in Roeland street called Blankspace and I was asked to do some prints for them. As promised more pets! The little Chihauhau is called CB and she is just about the cutest little thing ever, now I know what you think when you hear Chihauhau, but this is not the pink, scared, pop it in your handbag type, this one has a personality. And big ears. And gets very excited about life. These prints and a few more will be on sale soon, watch this space for details.

Fat cats and happy days!

My friend Annie is getting married (YAY!) and she asked me to design a save the date for her. It had to feature her fat, food crazy cat Samurai, so she came up with this idea and I illustrated it for her. The funny thing is that I've had it in the back of my head that I want to do pet portraits so Samurai was my first attempt at capturing a little (or in his case, not so little) fluff ball. Expect to see more furry creatures here soon.

Vivre Librement!

I did this cycling top for a friend of mine who is lucky enough to be going to the Tour de France. She's going with a whole group of friends and they will be watching as well as cycling parts of it and they wanted a team shirt. Their motto is "Live free" or in French "Vivre Librement!" It was a fun job, now I just hope the actual shirts turn out nicely.

More cute creatures

This illy was the last freelance job I did from South-America. And it all seems so far away and long ago now that I'm back at my old desktop computer in Cape Town. I did promise to update my blog more regularly once I'm back and that has not happened, but I blame that on a settling in phase. I'm finding my feet here again though so hopefully now I can be a new and improved blogger.

Little Miss Thirty

Hola, so my talented friend Claudie Browne started a blog all about being thirty. And I designed her blog header for her. Its called Little Miss Thirty and it's mighty funny. Check it out here. http://littlemissthirty.wordpress.com/ And on the subject of being thirty... My lovely friend Sam is turning the big 30 on tuesday, welcome to the cool club Sammo and happy birthday! It's pretty cool being thirty, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Starsigns

Another book that I did whilst travelling, this one I worked on whilst in Peru. It's all the different starsigns. I learned a lot about astrology working on this, apparently I'm spoilt and manipulative... a (and I quote) iron fist in a velvet glove...so don't mess with us librans. Not sure the spoilt and manipulative bit is true though, hope not.

Creatures on cards

I know I have not updated my blogg in ages, I've been distracted by how much I love Chile and Argentina, love it! But my time in South-America is almost up and I'm resolved to be better with updating my blogg once I'm back home. In the meantime here are some cards that I've done on this trip. Their for Stuff from Africa and they are finally in shops now according to my spies back home (my proud mom)
