My friend Anna Starr and I have been working on a newsletter to promote our youngest sons' school. It's a wonderful preschool that has been a place for my boys to develop and learn some valuable tools for life.
We wanted to create a beautiful image that families could pin up, enjoy and echoes the sensibilities of the school.
I'm very pleased with the outcome.
Stay tuned for the kid's products we are working on together.
Yipee, Spring has sprung. For now at least.
Experimenting today with more illustrations on wood and I can't seem to get enough of it.
Why not add some dog portraits in the mix.
I started working on some new illustrations that will be soon available as limited edition prints on my etsy site.
These are works in progress but coming along nicely I think.
I'm having a lovely day in my sunny studio drawing new faces for an upcoming children's project. Keep you posted.
On a dreary gray day that reminds me of London what better way to brighten the spirits then a cheery illustration. I'm gearing up for my next round of art classes for kids' at my local children's shop, Still Hip.
The first group of classes has just ended and were a great success. We made great art pieces out of recycled materials and in another class the children developed their own illustrated stories from designing the characters,writing the story and walking away with their own bound book.
I'm introducing two new classes this time. Easy as A to Z will be a course where children illustrate their own alphabet through word association resulting in a bound alphabet book.
And in Roots and Branches children will examine their ancestry through photography and illustration. We will explore three generations of each child's family tree and create a wonderful family album.
Please email me directly for more class information.
On Sunday March 15th at 4.00 I will be signing copies of Tribal Alphabet at Powerhouse in DUMBO, Brooklyn. If you've never been to this bookstore, you must. It has a wonderful selection of kids', art and design books. There's also the huge flea market round the corner so plenty for a fun family afternoon out. Hope to see you there.
I was so happy today to come across this Adidas advertising campaign for the Confederations Cup 2009 being held in South Africa.
As an avid collector of African barber shop signs for the past 15 years, it is such a joy to see an advertising agency such as TBWA merge such a wonderful and traditional art form with a high end sports brand.
Stay tuned for pictures of my own barber shop sign collection .
