I’m writing a story about Tina. See her tail? Looks cool right, but it really gets in the way when you play hide-and-seek, she’s always the first to be found. But sometimes a really long tail exactly what you need!

Currently I’m taking the MATS ICB class. This course is all about illustrating childrens books. I love every second of it. Choosing a text to do was difficult, because all three are amazing. Zoë Tucker wrote three lovely texts to inspire us. This is my character sheet for the enchanted apple. When class is over I will also work on the other stories. But for now, please meet Moose, Racoon and little Pica. They are about to go on an adventure!

I’ve been following Lisa Bardot for a while now. This year I pick and choose the MAKE-ART-EVERY-prompts I love and this is a weeks worth of those. I love drawing animals like this and limiting myself to just a few colours makes this piece even stronger. #bardotbrush #mae

You may have spotted my hugging friend Hugh before. I drew him while doing the illustration bootcamp from Make Art That Sells. I love him, had him printed on a RISOGRAPH machine. But he was a bit static, so here is an entire character sheet with nothing but hugging Hugh goodness!

My Toy Pitch week 4 | Play sets My toy pitch week 4 already. This week is Playset week. I chose to go for a new (human) character in my Playset. People scare me -a lot- but i went for it and i would like you to meet Zola and Zoey (which mean calm and life) I went for a sewing set. Every set is a bag with a doll (Zola or Zoey) and fabric and sewing-kit to make her outfit. A top and pants. This sewing set comes with a book with the patterns and a step by step tutorial of how to make the clothes. Only one book, so there are 2 tops and 2 pants in the book and enough fabric to make one set. I am really happy with how this turned out and would love to own a set (or both)! Next step is to make a proper pitch, research toy companies and actually pitch, pitch, pitch!

My Toy Pitch week 3 | Characters I really loved this week. We had to make characters. I totally forgot to look at the moodboards that Lilla Rogers provided in the course, but i can’t love Lilly & Lynn more. Look at those adorable rope arms and legs. And did you see the outfits? I need way more plushy cuddly sheep in my life.
