Love is in the air...

In between travelling and packing and sorting boxes for our move I've been working on some wedding invite designs for my brother-in-laws upcoming wedding. Starting with a pencil sketch and then inking in with my favourite Rotring pens it was then transferred to the computer to colour and tweak- I'm still waiting to hear thoughts on the colours but wanted to blog on this happy project! It's also started to give me ideas for valentines day...

New Year- new things!

Firsty may I wish you all a Happy New Year and secondly I just wanted to share this stop-motion short directed by my 6 year old nephew Ethan.  Made during the lull between Christmas and New Year to experiment with/ sorry I mean 'occupy', Ethan and I came up with a few short films. This one uses the alphabet and post-it notes inspired by this fantastic animation called Deadline.

It was refreshing for me to create something in different medium and be able to produce something tangible at the end- seeing Ethan's face light up at the letters moving on their own certainly added to the enjoyment!
