10,000 Robins come marching over the hill...

For some reason, the Mr Floppy song was the inspiration for this piece originally... I had in my head to make an army of mark wearing monsters, but I stopped at four. I know, I know, I was making my life simpler (perhaps laziness?) I am just getting back into working for myself after doing 10 straight (exhausting) days working in the restaurant. Hurrah for new staff!
In case you forget the song:
This is part of The Moleskine Exchange: Portrait Party
... back to work...

unbelievable mess

Ever since the Salon Livres et Presse Jeunesse... I have been loitering around, (when I have been here), seemingly accumulating more and more work on surfaces, wondering about those comments about odd illustrations not being "my style" even though I did them... You just have to see this image to understand (Not all the images you see in the photo are mine). I think I am understanding my style and getting a grasp of not kidding myself into something I am not. I guess when you work as a graphic designer, you get asked to appropriate styles, so perhaps this is why I got a little lost? I have arrived in the clearing! Does that make sense?
I have actually done a decent amount of work today (my protesting, hoop jumping tiger is my work in progress started today).

illustration friday: missing

Done it!
Finally.
I think work is getting to me, I am not sleeping well, and well, that's how it is when you work for someone else who has crazy deadlines I guess. Just so tired, but not sleeping well.
See! repeating myself. Babbling. Fabulous.

more commissioned work

These are two more images done for the 'zine for work (where I have full creative control, I am told). They are remarkably joyous considering what comes out of my brain in my own time. I believe i have just finished the second last, but I am not sure. It's still wet, I'm allowed to be unsure.
Damn my thumping head at the moment. I hate being a girl sometimes.

illustration friday night: don't

This is my piece for Illustration Friday Night, as the title suggests, and I shouldn't assume you are all morons who read my blog. I actually never assumed, so don't worry, don't get a complex. I could be writing away to myself here, then who would be the moron?
I have been hiding in the house all weekend... almost. Not much of a stereotypical Australian, I am pasty, and hide from the sun. I love the heat, unless over 40°C with no wind, but put me in the sun and you'd swear I was some sort of creature of the night (I hope the people at work don't read my blog, they already think this, and not a day goes by without some bullshit vampire / gothic comment). Anyway.
I watched John Safran Vs God in one sitting today (sent to me from my crazy friend Mandy Ord) I finished a few pieces of work, fixed and actually signed some work (My God! What's wrong with me?)... and boring domestic stuff you just don't want to know about like buying food. I hope my man is actually enjoying his holiday in Spain, because I certainly am not... entirely. damn my CDD! (That would be a Contrat à durée déterminée... Merde).
