IF : hibernate

It was about time to take part in Illustration Friday again...! 
It is all cloudy outside and days like these make me want to do just like this little squirrel and read good books, drink a hot cup of tea and dream for hours... :)
What is your way of hibernating...?

IF: rescue

From time to time I like to imagine a little story that matches the Illustration Friday theme of the week... This week's theme is rescue. Can you see with how much love and care mr. Elephant rescued his little friends from the rain...? :)

IF: parade

Here's a happy summer-parade pattern: a funny carnivorous plant enjoying summertime, eating all nice fruits you get when the sun shines bright. It's a vegetarian plant though: she gets along pretty well with birds and butterflies... I thought all elements together with their 3-4 strong colors look like a parade, (celebrating summer!) and being a pattern, the illustration gets a quite geometrical construction, similar to those of usual parades... Which colors do you like best?

Note to my usual blog readers: I'm very sorry for the lack of posts this week but I've been super busy, I promise I'll do better next week!

Illustration friday: fleeting

I was in IF mood again today and as I still needed to get some illustrations done for the show in Hong Kong it was the perfect excuse! Funny how sometimes you get a lot more done when there's just no time at all...!!

Now to the illustration: The little pirate is pretty surprised to get a love message from a fish... his cat doesn't really mind though... but all together I think the movement of the scene can be a good description of a fleeting moment!

illustration friday: celebrate

I once heard that each year in Sweden they have a party to celebrate the beginning of summer... This tree is meant to be a "beginning of spring-tree" and all its inhabitants are celebrating the end of winter and beginning of spring... :) 

Shouldn't we all have parties to celebrate the seasons...?
