Yesterday I had a lovely quiet day with Nai painting in bed. Here is a scene inspired by a barking deer I saw in Sweden.

I moved to Marsden a month ago to be a trainee animator with Fettle Animation and have loved every day of it. (A part from Friday when I had to stay home from work with food poisoning or something.) Here’s a little mouse I made this weekend.

Zoe asked me to draw a rough tattoo design for her of a Romanian brown bear. This was the final design she took to the tattoo artist.

Earthen cabin in Småland, Sweden. 

Known as “backstugas,” these cabins were common in the forests from the 1600s until the late 1800s. The structures were often built by on the border between two properties, generally on land that could not be farmed. It was not uncommon for the inhabitants to work for the landowners.

This particular cabin, which features three stone walls and one wooden wall, was built in the early 1800s by “Little Jon.”

You can buy a pillow or iphone case or notebook or something with this pattern on from my RedBubble shop.

The hare I Lino cut for my dear friend Liam’s leg has been tattooed! So very stoked about this. I’m very happy with the improvements the tattoo artist made as well, like more fur lines on the arm where I got carried away scooping.
