Spitfire in situ

spitfire in location
Remember the spitfire I made for my Grandpa back in March? Well, here's where it lives now. Patrolling the skies above the dining table in his home. I like how somehow this photo came out with the background perfectly matching the plane. Film is full of nice surprises.

Sometimes you really, really want to be heard. I made this about a month ago and it is quite burned down now. Uncertain times.

Spring Sale

sale sign

Just a heads up to you loyal followers, I'm having a bit of a spring sale on both my etsy stores at the moment. Partly to offer discounts to international people who couldn't take advantage of the Fab.com sale. People abroad need to save money too!

There's 15% off everything 'til the end of April. The code is (predictably) 'SPRINGSALE' and here are the stores:
For illustration, prints, and garlands - http://www.etsy.com/shop/kayeblegvad
For jewelry - http://www.etsy.com/shop/datter

Gold leafed lino

gold leafed thumbs up

You know what's a good time It's gold leaf. I've been applying it to some of my lino prints (and also to flowerpots, a biro, a rock, drawings, cups, etc) and enjoying the feeling of great wealth that it gives me.

On a similar note, I've finally got the un-gold-leafed lino prints in my etsy store. The gold leafed ones are available on request, should you desire one.

Star pillows

I've been playing around with designing fabrics for a while now, but can never make something I like enough to actually go ahead with. This is an idea for a reversible pillowcase... But as usual, I ain't sure about it. Looks too much like it's for a kid's room I think. And I am, as evidenced by all I think and do, a Grown Up.

Seven sisters

Photographs from a bright day in London six weeks ago. A visit to Decca's beautiful flat, and a walk in the sun where we saw the moon was already up.

The Daily

Hooo boy, it's been a while. I've been moving apartment and dealing with a huge swarm of deadlines, which combined has made me pretty lax at updating. Things have calmed down a bit now though, so I'm gonna get back on track.

Here's a drawing I did for someone who can maintain frequent updates - The Daily. For an article about finding a good doctor, and how much of that is up to chance. It was nice to cut up bits of colored paper again, it's been a while.
