Remember I mentioned I had been collaborating with

Remember I mentioned I had been collaborating with a lovely local client on a big project lately? Well, please welcome our next stockist @visit_australian_parliament

I was surprised to receive an inquiry from their team late last year. The brief was to illustrate “things/elements” it can be flowers, animals, plants and insects which can be found around and in Australian Parliament House (APH). It then applied onto different product range as a gift ideas. Something for the visitors to bring home as souvenirs after their Parliament House’s visits.

Here are the list of products you can find and support by buying my work at the Parliament Shop if you like 🥰
1/ Our popular Canberra Map Screen printed 100% cotton tea towels
2/ Vinyl Stickers of Emu, Kangaroo, Bottlebrush, Magpie and the Parliament House.
3/ Pre-cut 25 pieces of Temporary Tattoos of selected illustrated designs.
4/ Removable Fabric Wall Decals of selected illustrated designs (9 designs)
5/ Temporary Tattoos of selected illustrated designs (13 designs)

The collaboration with Parliament Shop for product range 2-5 (please refer above) are currently being stocked only at the Parliament Shop 🤗

I created this artwork during my Covid isolation thinking I would post it on Mother’s Day. Of course, I did not make it as I was still recovering from being overly ill then 😷

Given I’m so careful, I always wear masks everywhere I go. I can’t believe I was the one had it and I got my husband and our oldest had it too. Sigh 😔 We had to isolate the youngest from our oldest (they are very close with each other).

It was challenging not able to hug my children on Mother’s Day this year. I remembered I gave my youngest’s calf a quick squeeze (I washed and sanitised myself first) and left the room quickly as she was the only one tested negative. I came to my room studio sitting here thinking..wow, that was a hard one.

In case you are wondering. We are out of iso and are doing well 😘

Hi everyone! It’s been awhile. Thought I show up

Hi everyone! It’s been awhile. Thought I show up and say hello to my new followers 😘

January and February are usually my quiet months but turned out to be quite hectic for us. I then got tied up with a special collaboration with one of the local dream client 😘The local dream client put in a huge wholesale order which again made me very occupied for weeks. They have just let me know it is ok to announce our special collaboration few days ago! So I will announce who is our newest stockist when we return early May.

You would know that I’m currently in Melbourne with all the story feeds I have been posting online. We decided to take some time off (finally) since April is a quieter month for me. We made a brave step :-travelling interstate. So we are revisiting our previous home in Melbourne! We have relocated to Canberra coming up 6th years. We have not travel out of Canberra for the last 26 months since the pandemics. Mainly due to I’m an immunocompromised and still feel anxious when I’m in a crowded public.

My style has been evolving the last 6months or so. I have been trying different styles, brushes and textures on my artworks. As you can see, I love graphic images. And design, particularly packaging designs. My current love has to be flora and surface pattern design.

I’m also working on more newer product range. 80% of my products are made locally. But I want the 20% to be made locally instead of offshore. And that, is my focus 2. I am taking a break from doing any in person market. I want to come back with a bang with new product ranges! So watch this space!

A heads up letting you know that my Etsy shop is still open during the time we are away. All orders will be sent on May 2. All emails will be responded when I’m back to work early next week. I can’t believe May is just around the corner!

In case you wondering how come am so tan these days. My hubby who loves running on daily basis. Likes to drag me along. “Irene, you coming for a run today?” “Have you done your run today?” “So what if you are slow, I like your company” it’s a form of encouraging me to move and be active. That way keeping my blood sugar level under control 😊

It’s been awhile folks!

I have been occupied with a fantastic paid collaboration opportunity working with a new client last few months. Just so very pleased to drop off the first delivery this morning!

Oh, how I miss drawing again during the busynesses 😅 Sharing with you one of the bee and flower thing I did not too long ago.
