I’ve been having tons of fun with custom portraits lately! Thank you ever so much!

My latest custom illustration is for a very sweet customer. Her name is Frances and she has the cutest doggie called Oreo! Frances wanted a park setting, so I drew them sitting on a park bench, under a cherry blossom tree:)

If you would like a custom portrait hand drawn in my style, get in touch with me! I’d love to make a unique portrait for you!

If you’re free this weekend, come down to Made On The Left for TWO great days of designer arts and crafts! You can check out the impressive list of stallholders here.

The market poster is illustrated by the talented Samantha Hughes. Aren’t the monsters cute? They look dressed up for the winter markets!

Come by and say hi at my stall. I’ll be selling my handmade stationery on Sunday, July 18th. Hope to see you there!

Heya! Just sorting through some pictures of last Sunday’s Upmarket.

I was quite exhausted after the market..and needed a few days to rest. I had a great time on Sunday and I was pleased to meet some of my blog readers and facebook fans. You guys truly made my day!

I also had some new products selling at my booth; like my new notebooks, Little Mo wrapping papers and my 2011 pocket calendars. I noticed that my product range has grown significantly since my first market!

Thanks to everyone for supporting my art making and buying my art. I hope you’ll have lots of fun using your Little Mo stationery! Stay tuned for more pictures in my next post!

P/S: My card display was hand built by Ramsden Designs.

I’m so tired! I’ve just finished with all my market preparations and I’m going to sign off for the night soon! Just wanted to show you some picture of the mess I made.

Thankfully Niina came over to help me…with the monotonous task of punching gift tags! Thanks dear!

If you’re down in Perth, come check out our booth at Perth Upmarket today, 27th June. I’ll be upstairs at Winthrop Hall, UWA 10am – 4pm selling all my Little Mo stationery and goodies. Hope to see you there! xoxo

Wow talk about total handmade spirit. I carried this whole stack of paper goods home from the printer. I had to make two trips. There’s about 120 over notebooks and calendars in this stack.

Yes you heard correctly, calendars! It may be a little early (or maybe not), but I’m taking these goodies to Upmarket to sell on Sunday!

Each book is pocket sized and will fit in your handbag and shirt pocket (if you like stuffing things in your pocket). They feature my original illustrations of Little Mo and her adorable animal friends. I’m a bit obsessed with pocket sized things lately…so expect to see more mini creations soon! You can get your pocket calendars here. Enjoy!

I heard from a few friends that they’ve seen my Little Mo stationery at Planet books. So we walked down to town to check out Planet Books and do a bit of book / paper browsing.

Planet Books stock some nice collection of graphic art books and I was delighted to find artworks and books by local artists.

If you’re in the neighbourhood, you can buy our Little Mo stationery from Planet Books at 634 / 648 Beaufort St, Mount Lawley. We have a fun selection of Little Mo dolls, book stickers greeting cards, postcards and journals.

I couldn’t leave the shop without buying some nice stationery myself so I bought these lovely postcards by Lilly Piri and Andrea Innocent.

My shop is now stocked with seasonal cards if you’re looking for something cute to mail off during this season month!

Those in the Southern Hemisphere, my Autumn cards are available in a single set or a pack of three. It has a sweet illustration of Little Mo swimming under the maple trees.

For our friends in the Northern Hemisphere, we’ve got Summer cards available in a single set or a pack of three. This card has cute lemon trees and little birdies!

I hope you enjoy!

Little Mo stationery is now stocked at Little Paper Lane. Located at 5/1751 Pittwater Rd, Mona Vale, NSW.

This has got to be the sweetest stationery/paper shop I’ve ever seen!! it’s stocked to the brim with wonderful paper creations! I wish I could fly there right now! If you live nearby, don’t forget to visit this cutie for a bit of paper shopping!

I can spy some Little Mo notebooks at their window display, along with our Little Mo buntings! For more lovely photos of their shop as well as updates on new products, hop over to their fan page.

After my hiatus at the start of this year, I am now preparing for market season! My first market appearance for 2010 will be at Perth Upmarket.

There will be over 140 designers selling on that day!

I think I’ve missed all the buzz and excitement that comes with market preparations. You can bet, I’ll be at my stall showing off my new Mo art! And this time, you can carry your paper goods home in our Mo stamped paper bags!

I hope to see you all there!

Remember this? I’ve just finished inking my little birdies and tree print, as part of my nature series. I’ve decided to try a summer palette for this design, what do you think? I’m hoping that the marigold will come out nicely during my test print.

I think colouring foliage requires the most time for me and although this design looks simple, it actually took me awhile to ink in all the leaves and shade them.

Aside from making notebooks, I’ve been thinking about turning my nature patterns into greeting cards or postcards. Would they be too plain for cards? Any ideas?

Clockwise: Autumn Wild Berries, Summer birdy, Spring Wild Berries, Cherry Blossom.
