Mrs Cat also works hard

 

Well guess what... Mr Cat does indeed have a girlfriend! (Or is it wife? Maybe you should ask him?) She works as a typist and has a taste for handknitted jumpers and cardigans. She also decided to feature in a line of bags, not for the money, mainly for the fame. :)

Go HERE if you want one!

Astro Cat

This is an absolutely fab print I got as a part of a swap with Aljona - the most talented young designer :). We have been on and off buddies for Etsy Christmas Bootcamp thing (yes, this probably is just a bunch of words that don't mean anything to You). The swap was probably the best thing that came of it SO FAR. You know what it's like, advice for an advice, eye for an eye, cat picture for a cat picture... I though the vintage style photo will be fitting for the nature of the print (read: I could only take photo with my phone and the wannabe hipster in me decided that using instagram is the best thing since sliced bread). I am utterly loving the print. The paper is lovely, the packaging was great, the little baby print that I got as a freebie was amazing too... All I need now is a frame fitting of this picture. And all YOU need now is your own copy OF THIS ASTRO CAT. You might now think this is a sponsored post or an advert. You are totally wrong. :) Young artists can't afford those!

Stall at Out of the Blue! And a preview of what's to come :)

Hello! Yesterday I had a stall at an art market at Out Of the Blue in Leith in Edinburgh. I have worked my bum off all week to finish off all the new things for the show :) You can admire them (and also my most handsome little helper - Karen-Anna of Arga Ankan) on the above picture :) You can play "spot a new item", as a lot of these I am photographing (like, right now) to put up on Etsy ASAP!! :)

Water

For Illustration Friday. There are many uncovered mysteries in the depth... :)

Listophilia

I have this terrible habit of making lists. They don't always work as means of motivating me, but they definitely work as means of making me happy and making me feel organized. Most of the time it's not true anyway, but I eep making them. I am doing a wee craft show thingie on Saturday and I could not resist NOT making a list of things I want to get done for it (i.e. stock), but since I have 4 3 days left till the zero hour, i thought I will at least make a rough plan of what I want done by when. And the great Aljona suggested I should make a dinosaur shaped one. Just for that little bit of extra motivation.

Up and away

I am away for the weekend in a peacefull cottage. I am hoping to draw loads while I am here, including some more new cats to go with the famous working Mr Cat:

A lady Cat is on her way, but so are a few other pictures. It is pretty rainy here, but that only adds to the cosyness. And there is a real fireplace and not much around bar fields and sheep. I totally love it.

I am not sure if I will be able to post thigns on here straight away, but surely will put up some fancy shmancy instagram pictures :)
