Painting on clothes is one of my favourite mediums. It's even better when I get to perpetuate a running joke. Also. Dinosaurs rock. #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #painting #tshirtpainting #customart #customillustration #illustration #illustrator #painter #dinosaur https://www.instagram.com/p/CC5mL5GJH3j/?igshid=7k1nqsmwptze

#lakedyer was a bit of a bust due to the low water levels but since we stumbled upon it while getting lost in some incredibly pretty tiny towns, it was still great. The playground was lots of fun and a welcome reprieve from the road. The onsite toilets and lots of safe places to run around make it a great stop for families. #familytravel #familyadventure #daytrip #lpkids #kidstravel #adventure #thisisqueensland #nature #outdoors #family #australia #australianautumn #queensland #lockyervalley #playground #slideshenanigans #visitqueensland #exploreaustralia #familylife https://www.instagram.com/p/CC5lBvNJM43/?igshid=w3w3dplkwgxh

Visiting #toowongcemetery and watching this little sprite pick flowers to place on some of the oldest graves. We talked about how it's important to read the names out loud to help the people's memories stay alive. Toowong Cemetery is an amazing place and so big! There's acres and acres to explore. Some of the markers are in disrepair but still beautiful. There's lots of memories there. #familytravel #familyadventure #familyday #australia #queensland #visitqueensland #discoverqueensland #thisisqueensland #visitbrisbane #explore #wanderlust #brisbane #australianautumn #discoverbrisbane #easytosocialdistance #lpkids #kindnessiscontagious #muninn https://www.instagram.com/p/CC5ib1Pp1PW/?igshid=1veiu7y00ujsh

Flashback to my painted pot, gifted to the sunniest person I know. Complete with carefully cultivated jade plant. In case you're wondering, the secret to growing jade plants is ignoring them, watering sporadically and generally avoiding looking at them. #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #australia #queensland #art #artisan #cockatoo #wildlife #gardenart #painting https://www.instagram.com/p/B_ZtNtcpaU1/?igshid=1dqehz8on4yw3

I'm finding isolation is great for physical creativeness - gardening, sewing, decorating - but not so great for art. I don't want to spend much time in my head right now. Instead, I grabbed an embroidery kit and have happily indulged in front of the tv, with some fluffy company. #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #australia #queensland #isolationchronicles #isolation #embroidery #molliemakers @molliemakes https://www.instagram.com/p/B_SE_kGJxEP/?igshid=13kv0ul15q302

I'm thrilled to announce two of my paintings will be included in the @petrie_terrace_gallery Women's Work exhibition opening this week. In conjunction with @sharethedignityaustralia this is a brilliant artistic event and also raises awareness and funds for the hard work and dedication of the charity. Opening night is this weekend... tickets online and at the door! #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #artexhibition #painting #art #brisbaneart #brisbane (at Gold Coast, Queensland) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuVALd6ADd3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vl2xtmods6lk

Christmas - when you forget what day it is and your kids need stuff you forgot to shop for! Tip: always keep a plain shirt and some sharpies in the house for just such an occasion. . . . #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #christmas #christmastee #family #kidscrafts #sharpie #sheloveditsoimhappy https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs2WSCmAPlG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=o8x0z40qrzwk

Crafting with kids can be tricky, they have little reservation about making requests! A background in professional printing and binding thankfully gave me the skills needed to deliver this time. When a 7 year old requests books for Barbie and a custom mod to her locker so the books fit, you put your thinking cap on. Scrapbook paper, plain paper, staples and scissors for the books and a little tape and cardboard for the shelves. She's happy, that's all that matters 😊 . . . #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #barbieaccessories #craft #kidscrafts #diydollaccessories #dollaccessories https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs2VlSBgft5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12l7u26c18wbw

On Halloween, we sculpt melons. FYI, it's spring in Australia so watermelons are cheaper than pumpkins. And they have awesome red insides. AND they taste better. Behold! The jack'o'melon. #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #halloween #australia #sculpt #watermelon https://www.instagram.com/p/BpopmkvAjyc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z5g57g3lrw1w

Seed packet party favours - custom illustration, envelope design, envelope print/cut/assembly. These little beauties hold sunflower seeds as birthday party favours for kids! One of my all-time favourite design jobs is event merchandising. I LOVE designing for parties, showers and special occasions, especially if I can create more than just invitations. #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #party #partyfavors #kidsparty #illustration #art #floralart #events #eventmerchandise #grow #sunflower #birthday https://www.instagram.com/p/BpJk30fBdzW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=djq0eb3g6mof

What is essential to every 30th birthday celebration? A drunken unicorn bingeing on banana cream custard cake of course. This unicorn is hand sculpted from polymer clay so he'll be a lasting reminder of just how awesome the 30s are. Cake is handmade too.

When you've been wrapped up in commercial art, it's nice to tune out and do something creative with your hands. Freehand stitched, totally made up in places, lol. #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #goldcoastartist #australianartist #crossstitch #embroidery #animal #fox #flowers #wildlife #wildlifeart #instaart #handcrafted #artisan https://www.instagram.com/p/BpEwthsh8Dm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=fuj4csqc7zs2

Hectic, but lots of fun for #bookweek 2018. I really love painting on fabric and thankfully my kids like the end result, lol. Two painted shirts, a pair of tweaked pants, custom painted shoes 🎶and a partridge in a pair tree 🎶 Big love to the #percyjackson and #billiebbrown series for entertaining my kids and teaching them valuable stories. #eveningsongink #nikkifowell #nicolefowellart #cosplay #costume #kidscostume #painting #drawing #goldcoastartist #australianartist #books #readingtakesyouplaces
