I'm sharing a stall with wonderful Emma of benconservato and Sarah of flossy-p - they are truly amazing artists and I'm so excited to hang out with them for a couple of days!
I'm taking to the market many of my existing products, and a couple of new things. I've decided to take along just a little handful of original illustrations. The light in my studio is always so beautiful in the afternoon at this time of year, so I cracked out my inks & watercolours and have started a few of these.Depending on the reaction to them I might do some more to sell in my shop too - when I used to make illustrated purses every one was unique and it was fun just to draw something crazy sometimes, which I miss. It's totally different to my design process which needs to be quite precise. So I'm sure there will be more, actually.
I also have to confess - whenever I go anywhere where they give me a paper napkin, I save it (if it's unused!) I have a huge stash now, they are so handy for cleaning the ink off the end of my pen.
I'm also going to take just a few frames covered in my fabric. They look great as props, and are lovely hanging on the wall too (I've been trying them out around the house to see how they look!)I've also just finished up a bunch of purple bird purses, they'll be in the shop later today.

Great opportunity for us Sydneysiders to come and say 'hello!' to you. Handy to get to - less than a kilometre walk from Redfern railway station. Hope to get there on the Saturday!
oohhh boo I wish I could come SO much, i missed the one that was on when I was in Sydney as I was in Melbourne but I have only heard such good things abut it, have fun x
Hey this is really cool. I brought one of you greeting cards... I think in Carnegie if I am not mistaken. I brought the one with the little birdies, but they were more in orange tones from what I remember. I used the greeting card, so I'm not sure if I am right.
why hello little lady,
i just wanted to be brave and tell you, that your stuff is simply adorable,
and you are a very talented and quirky artist, and should be sooo proud of your beautiful creations! Your shop is dashing too btw!
I have your website bookmarked so am totally excited to see more from you super soon!
Have fun being wonderful,
Lauren x
