Coral Rose Ring

I got it!
Oh, how happy I am!
I'm so very pleased with my pretty ring and got compliments all day.
I'm the proud owner of this gorgeous ring from Skermunkil, only 5 were made.
Nice.
*Feeling nice every time I put my eyeballs on it.


Speaking of Skermunkil, here is the background that I illustrated for them for the Joburg Food Wine Design Fair. It's so very big!

Miss Texas 1977 Show

The Miss Texas Show last week was much fun.
If you weren't there, I think you may have missed the best one yet.
Adam Hill was fantastic on lap steel, Gene hadn't been smoking for a while which made his voice crystal clear and rad, Julia played a plethora of little instruments to embellish the songs, Abbey Hatcher jumped in for a song and so did I!
(That's me looking solemn in the back of the pic)

It was fun, the Waiting Room was packed with lovely people and the vibe was nice.
Look out for the next one.

I came across this photograph today on the site, vectroave, and it reminded me of a shoot I did a couple of years ago with Justin Badenhorst, back when I was a blondie.

Eleanor Davis : Illustrator

Yay!
I've come across some illustration that has given me INSTANT heart palpitations.
Eleanor Davis' paintings and illustrations are so interesting and intriguing, I had to share them here.

Love those lines.
To look at more of Eleanor Davis' work, go to her website doing fine.

Free Gift Tags

Yoh, I'm nice.
I've made you not one, but two free gift tags!
They're black and grey (so they won't munch on the colour cartridge) and you can print them on anything you like. I've even made a little circle to show you were to punch the hole.

Wow, I can't believe how nice I am.
