By elise | Published: January 14, 2012

It’s a little hard to talk about the year to come although I feel very excited… because things aren’t pinned down yet. One thing that is is a series of covers I’m doing for a fantasy novel trilogy. I’m working on the roughs right now and trying out all sorts of ideas. I love reading [...]

Hot off the press…

It’s market day tomorrow and I have TWO NEW THINGS. Shiny and new. Spangly even! First of all, drumroll please, we have a clear favourite in the great print decision. There were many votes – at coffee shops, at the market, online, from the casting of bones and, yay-verily, a little  tea-leaf reading… and so [...]

Wading girl in the Press

By elise | Published: January 20, 2011

This was cool! I just came across it… in the UK Marie Claire (Oct 2010 edition)… there’s my picture! No, not the one with the bra – the wading girl illustration. It was to publicise the Roger la Borde celebrations and creations for sale at Liberty in London. The collection got mentions all over the [...]

So how d’ya like these apples? A real Mondoodle. On a Monday. Drawn on a Monday. Yes, this Monday. Hooray! My hands were having a good evening and let me draw a bit. Yes, still tingly and weird and sensitive and sore but – hooray! She’s the Hummingirl. I have always been a huge fan [...]

Here’s another snippet for a Mondoodle until I get the use of my hands back! Should be soon… Typing isn’t too bad but I do a lot of key mis-hitting through lack of feeling. Ah well. It’s fun to look back at some of my pictures and have a close peek at things in the [...]

By elise | Published: December 28, 2010

I didn’t even realise it was Monday yesterday! And then I worked it out when I found out that today is Tuesday already. Genius. Funny how days sneak around on holiday… Anyway, I was watching the latest Dr. Who Christmas special the other day and I found myself encountering what must be a common dilemma [...]

Mondoodle 15-11-2010

By elise | Published: November 16, 2010

I still get a shock that it’s November. Which I think might have something to do with the reality that the boys are due in Feb (which I think will be mid Jan). And so I thought I’d draw some boys to help get me used to it. But after how they’ve been kicking me [...]
