Just some thang

This is the latest poster I did for my cousin Jacob. He's doing another ep launch! Because he's just too darn good!

Recently did some artwork for my cousin Jacob Diamond.

He released his debut ep! So I designed the album and also a gig poster for the talented young man.

And if you're keen to hear the sound that this dude makes

kickstART markets

Saturday was the day! Melissa and I rocked the markets with amazing stuff and things!

Really enjoyed the atmosphere of the day, and loved talking to all sorts of different people about design and such.

It's given me a boost of confidence in a way. Having complete strangers come up and say something as simple as "that's so cool!" made me feel all warm and fuzzy! Heh


IN COLUSION! It was a very good day, and I hope to do more markets in the future. Twas very rewarding 


 Took a few happy snaps on the day that I shall now share :)

Here's our stall set up..

 The Image immediately above and below are items that my friend Melissa sold on the day. She went really well. Her greeting cards went off like a frog in a sock! Love her illustrations 

Annd below are some shot's of my stuff. Wallets and prints both sold really well, along with my original ink house drawings 

And I made profit! WIN

Markets

My friend mel and my fine self, got accepted to participate in a youth festival market!
Yay.
We applied and hoped for the best. The best happened.
This will be the first time i've done anything like this, pretty excited. My mind keeps ticking over with ideas. What to seelll how to sell it. Packaging. Making things look sexy n shit!

Yeah. Should be an interesting experience. Hopefully a successful one at that.

I'm going to make my own colouring book. Hellah keen on that idea. Something i've wanted to do for a while so thought i'd try it out now. Seems fitting. Youth, colouring, childhood memories come flooding back.

I'm going to print it all from home which means double sided printing... which leads to brain explosions.
Was testing it out last night... lord. I think it's my poor simple mind. I just can't seem to get things right the first time. ever. 
Rather than figure it out before printing I printed to figure it out. yep. Trial and error....
Was very much error, error, trial, success, error. But after an unhealthy amount of time I managed to get a mockup sorted. yeaaah... winnerrr.
So I'm sure you'll hear more about this sooon. 

One page from my colouring bewwk. Just black and white for all your colouring needs

That's my name don't wear it out! Logo, a working progress.

Drawings

During the plane trips to and from melbourne, I thought I'd get all productive on my own ass. AND I DID. AND HERE WE ARE
I chucked the sketches into photoshop and had a stupid play around. myeeeeis.
We have a tug boat and some books!

Melbourne Trip!

Always love a Melbourne getaway

Just spent the long weekend over there with the male friend I like heaps. Was goood timess. We escaped the heat wave of Perth! ... almost..kinda.. not really.

We did sooo much walking my shins hurt (such an unfit human)... and a lot of eating and drinking to counteract the healthy walks :)

So here are a few snaps of the trip. Mainly buildings and some kick ass art that I found on the walls.

old buildings make me happpyyy.

It begins

Going to be uploading a few half baked ideas over the next few months I think. 

Getting the creative juices flowin' for an exhibition that I shall be partaking in. If all goes well and we get organised it should be in 3 months or so! Woohoo. 

This guy just wants what he don't have. I quite like his munted pinwheel though.
