sachet pillows ladies

WIP

I started new illustrations, this girl will have an embroidered dress, let's see how this will result :)

The Girl Who Knitted Love sachet lavender pillow

The Toy Top bag for underwear or cosmetic

Sometimes i choose the best designs i made and turn them into limited editions of cotton bags and lavender sachets, as The Toy Top and The Girl Who Knitted Love.
The idea of the underwear bags came to me 'cause i carry all my stuff carefully in boxes and bags, since I'm always moving each year. So, i have many bags made by me and all my clothes smell like fresh lavender.

.both are available at my etsy and Dawanda shops and very soon at Quasiloja in Oporto.

giveaway

The Toy Top nº 12

The Toy Top nº 10

Le Solitaire nº 10

This stuff has a story.

Someone bought these little fellows and they were lost 2 months overseas, then returned to me. I've never had a lost mail, it was the first and unique time. I don't know what happened, nobody at the Portuguese posts neither USPS gave me an explanation. The money was refunded to the buyer one month after the purchase.
The corners came with a little bend, i took this picture as soon as i opened the package, but it's something that can be fixed by framing.
I contacted the customer to offer them, since I'll not sell this again and i never had a reply.
So, if you want one of them, just leave a comment bellow. I will announce the 3 winners next Friday.

ACEO

Smells like Spring

The Gardener | screenprinted on Muji journal (limited edition of 3)

The Gardener

I recently discovered what is an ACEO or the meaning of it - Art Cards Editions and Originals. They are all over, in any kind of medium and i have started doing my own series. Simple, ethereal, as the Smells like Spring Illustration (available in my etsy shop), i can tell that I'm already in love with them. The picture shows the very first ACEO i ever made!

The Gardener is a tribute to the men who care for their beard, i have a friend that always says 'oh! this is my garden', and this is for him too!
A limited edition of gocco screen prints in dark brown on paper and a very small edition of 3 journals printed in gold.

it's raining

The Connection (scanned image)

that insane thing

The Cookie Song

The week ended and the rain didn't stop here in the south, like 'singing in the rain' i draw The cookie song on my Moleskine. That Insane Thing... no need for more words! It's a watercolor sketch. I liked the idea of a rebellious hair and i mixed it with that insane feeling - l o v e - and the relations between couples. So, The Connection is a portraiture of lovers, a new Lovers Portrait, printed with gocco on a limited edition of 50.

have a great weekend! :)
