Today I would like to share two lovely people who have just featured me on their blogs. The first is Kat Black of Anything Goes, who is from South Africa and has a great eye for design and art. The second is Mola-Mo from Norway, who writes about artists that inspire her and also posts up sweet drawings from her sketchbook. I am constantly amazed at how the internet can bring people together who would never meet in ordinary circumstances. And I am amazed by the generosity of the people I come into contact with through this blog. Thank you, everyone!

Hopefully I'll have time for another drawing this afternoon. Things are a bit quieter here this week... for now!

jelly

Thanks this morning to my lovely friends at Jelly for mentioning the Cretinous Ostrich blog that Baz and I draw, after I sent over a couple of pictures from it that tickled their fancy. For more from the blog, please click here.

another random drawing

I've just added a link on the 'also find me at:' section on the right. It is a link to one of my other blogs called (in my typical ladylike fashion) This is where I write crap. I have been writing this for a little while and it's the place where I write stuff that doesn't really belong here, where mostly (with some lapses!) I blog about things that are related to my work and other design-y junk. This other blog is where I indulge myself more personally - food (a LOT about food), memories, Chinese cultural stuff, random, ranty soapbox moments. But don't judge me by it! I am not as grumpy nor as neurotic as I appear on it. I just thought maybe some of you might be mildly diverted by it. Today's post was mainly about Vietnamese sandwiches and congee. Yesterday was about a curious thing called pickled tofu. It's like that, I'm afraid.

As you will gather from the most recent post, I'm off on holiday next week for ten days. So, a couple more bits and bobs here this week, then I'll be off to NY and beyond! Whoop!

I'm on Pikaland!

I've been reading the Pikaland blog for many months now and I love the mix of illustration, design and fun projects that are featured, like the Good to Know zine, and the Pikapackage, which is a monthly giveaway of limited edition prints and other items sent in by illustrators and printmakers. I think it's a great idea, bringing artists together and providing another way in which to promote our work.


I'm particularly excited today because the lovely Amy has just written a really sweet post on Pikaland about my work and I'm absolutely chuffed! Thanks so much, Amy!

design for mankind

Huge thanks to Erin from Design for Mankind for posting about my work this week! I love this blog, so I'm incredibly pleased to be featured on it! Click here for the post.

I also appeared on Desi's blog last week - thanks, Desi!
