Wallpaper | Clare Bowditch Quote

I made a little desktop wallpaper based on a favourite quote I drew in my sketchbook. I've made it to fit a couple of sizes if you'd like to use it. I've just started my honours degree at uni and managed to take my graphics tablet pen to uni so I couldn't use it at home, so I had to use my trusty track pad for the editing which was an exercise in tedium! (If only I wasn't impatient and could wait until tomorrow to retrieve the pen) :P

Sketchbook Pages | Part 1

A couple of months ago I splurged and bought myself an A5 sized red covered Moleskine sketchbook. The pages are beautiful to draw and paint on and the perfect GSM not to show most mediums through. I don't play around in it as often as I'd like to, but it always feels like a worthwhile use of time when I do. Sometimes I work on a page and it ends up looking crappy and I'll collage over the top of it. I was worried that having spent a pretty penny for a fancy sketchbook would cause me to be precious about it and not want to use it or play around in it, but I haven't found that the case at all. I can't wait until I've filled up all of the pages in this one and I can start another.

While I'm here I thought I'd share a few more hand-lettered zine order envelopes I sent out this week. If you'd like to buy a copy click here
