here are some “works in progress” i am busy scribbling for a group exhibition happening in johannesburg (10-29 February). the art of happiness : 13 taking place at the bamboo centre in melville, will feature 13 illustrators from various parts of the country…
i decided to do mostly handmade christmas presents this year. now this sounded like a great idea, a money-saver, however, the real challenge was finding the time during the busy working festive season for extra once-off drawings. here were the three illustrations i managed…for the rest i baked delicious cinnamon christmas cookies! (which i will post about later)

i was asked by the talented people at nicework to contribute to their magazine‘s 10 things feature. since it was the last volume of the year my 10 things had to centre on christmas – such fun to share a little of what year-end festivities mean to me. nice magazine is a wonderful design e-zine and well worth a read!
