silly summer photo shoot

We recently had a quick little photo shoot whilst on holiday in Donegal with some of my family. A big thanks to my silly billy models - my wonderful nieces Evie 10, Jasmin 6 & Hariot 2. Believe it or not, there was a bit a shyness to begin with but then they got into the smiley swing of things.

Keep an eye on the website as we will be uploading lots of lovely picture soon.

HUGS WILL SAVE US

for some reason koalas was the 1st thought that came into my head when i heard the title of this fun illustration competition. i was going to have a big scary monster down below, but i thought little koalas hugging on for life was endearing enough. hee hee.

rand renfrow seems to be the brains behind the test everything zines. each month he gives a theme and calls for hand drawn submissions. so the theme this month is "Hugs Will Save Us" and you can only use the colours orange & black.

Fingers crossed our little koalas will make it through to the final 16 that get printed into a zine, but if not it was good to draw new friends :)
