Kitchen Animals

So for a short while my weekly creatures are going on hold... This is because I am just too busy with real stuff to do this kind of organized fun stuff. But dn't worry, as soon as things calm down I will be back at it :)

I have now been working on a number of new products and these are going to be tea towels (or kitchen towels, whatever you prefer to call them). They are all ordered up and I can't wait to get my hands on them! So for now here are some process pictures. These are the finished pieces:


I recently started to do my sketches on the computer:


I am quite a control freak and this gives me a lot MORE control (and takes leff time) than doing sketches on paper (although roughs and ideas I still do in my sketchbook).


So then I transfer some of the lines with a lightbox onto NICE paper. And then use the printed off sketch side by side with my drawing just for reference. Like this:


And here is the dog in the making :)


And this is my fave pen that sometimes makes a mess of your hand.

  3. Hello! I just found your post on Tumblr, about the pouch you made out of cat fabric. Is there any chance you're selling that fabric? It's amazing! Did you do the illustrations for it yourself?

    1. Hi, just saw your question! I am not planning on selling the fabric but I do want to make the pouches available to buy.

    2. Well, at least not in the near future - but I am not ruling it out completely.
