NEW VIDEO: RAINFOREST SKETCHBOOK PAGES

I have a new video to share with you! It’s a visit to the beautiful Dorrigo National Park, on beautiful Gumbaynggirr country on Australia’s east coast… then I head home and sketch up some drawings inspired by the outing. Hope you enjoy it, I’m so proud of how this video came together, and really excited to share with you the beautiful country where I grew up and live.

PATREON POSTCARD: MAY

The monthly Patreon-exclusive postcard mail out was this sweet little froggy. If you’d like to have one of these appear in your mailbox each month, or are keen to catch up on weekly sketchbook updates, behind the scenes and simple how-to tutorials… it’s all here.

SPOTLIGHT: BUTTERFLY FLOW FLASH

Today is the last day to grab some of the new prints that were released last week!

They were available on a time-limited release so I could offer a wider range of printing, and so I can get back to work doing what I do best after a week of excitedly sharing all of this with you. So, if you’ve got your eye on something, get in there now!

Anyway, on this last day of print spotlights, I wanted to take you on a tour of the Butterfly Flow illustration sheet, another one created as a digital download for my Patreon subscribers, and reproduced here as a fine art or digital art print for your home.

This page features more of my favourite butterfly-winged things (including the omnipresent winged horses), but this time with the addition of some sweet fairy ladies.

This page was born out of the really beautiful late-summer season when there are butterflies positively everywhere on our farm. (Also a lot of caterpillars, and this was one of my first real attempts at drawing them!).

Anyway, the colours and recurring symbols of this piece all suggest a lush, sweet, slowing of the season; the magical time of transition as we move into the flow of the next. At least, I hope that’s what I’ve captured.

You can purchase the Butterfly Flow illustration — for the next few hours only — here.

SPOTLIGHT: RED, MACK & BLUE

The story of Red, Mack and Blue is just beginning… a red-headed woman, a blue-roan horse and a kelpie pup, setting out to bring us encouragement, joy, gratitude and grace.

This mini-print set follows the first four frames of their story so far; I hope it brings you some light and happiness, and that I can keep on sharing their adventures with you.

Shop the set here. Only available for a couple more days.
