Another invite

This one for my friend Jenna's hen do. The theme was J as both their names starts with a J so I dressed up like a jam jar. Very excited for the wedding!

Off and away!,

I'm packing up my life in Cape Town and going traveling, to the lands where the llamas roam free of course! South-America. I counted and I only have 11 days left at work and less than a month till I fly, yikes! It is very scary but also very exciting I have constant butterflies in the belly.

This is the invite I did for our farewell, me and my friend Bakes that is. She's the blond one being chased by a little red bird and I'm in the yellow dress. It's a remarkable likeness so if you happen to walk past and recognise one of us please say hi. The only difference is that we do have noses, unlike our illustrated counter parts :).

Oh I am taking a laptop with me so am hoping to still be able to freelance and draw pictures and update my blogg along the way. It might become a travel/illustration blog.

Quiz

I did this invite for a friend who's church is hosting a quiz night to raise money. It was fun to draw a dorky chick with big glasses. Its also nice to do work for friends as I did once scamp got the go ahead straight away and then did the final, none of the usual back and forth. Lovely.

The Magical Garden

Our Strategy department at work ( I work in advertising) asked all the creatives to submit designs for their office wall the theme being a garden, this is mine. The winners gets a cash prize and their idea on a wall. I think mine might be a bit quirky for a strat department though.

Oh my

This is a little doodle of a bear who walked into his room only to find his bunny slippers at it. Naughty bunnies. This isn't of course real work this is me amusing myself.

The fish wears the scarf but the turkey wants the belt

No I haven't had a stroke I'm learning to speak Portuguese and this is one of the sentences I've learnt, handy I know. But the logic behind learning random sentences is that you actually learn the meaning of the words and grammar as opposed to just learning phrases like a parrot. It does mean that I look like an absolute nutter walking around my neighbourhood I-pod on talking about dirty jellyfish and free cupboards to myself.

Bunny and Clyde

So friday eve I went for a walk after work and walked pass a fluffy white bunny just chilling on the side of the road. The guy across the street was outside watering his garden so I asked him if he knows where the bunny resides, figuring that it got out. Seems the bunny as well as some of his friends did get out, 6 months ago, most of the friends have been recaptured and returned to the neighbours garden but two bunnies have been living on the run managing to avoid recapture. Sure enough a block down I came across bunny number two. So now we can add bunnies to the wildlife in my neighbourhood we already have guineafowl, squirrels (including an albino) and Egyptian geese.
