Seems the more I draw and the more creative I am, the more my blog suffers. But I have been drawing a lot, working on the story board for a new book. Doing some new Etsy posters.
Still plenty of things on my to-do list for this week. But first, a snack!
Have a wonderful day!
Trying to start into the new week full of motivation and with a veeeery long to-do list. So in order to tackle the new year I am trying to be more organized (my main job is being a professional organizer that needs to meet deadlines aka project manager).
As if I don’t have enough things on my to-do list, step one was to make the to-do list look nice, which then turned into the creation of a whole set of weekly planners and a year calendar in the making. I suppose that this is a whole new level of procrastination.
Anyhow, you can also get your own printable weekly planner here on my Etsy. I’ll be uploading a few more online this week.

I have been in a drawing mood lately and thought it is about time to add some new prints to my Etsy shop.
But what should I add?
Let me know in the poll below.
Here is a best off (at least my favourites) of Inktober so far. There are a few more to come.
Seems I am a mono-tasker after all. While I am focusing on my Etsy I have been neglecting my blog a lot this year… BUT I have not just been idle, there have been the occasional sketches and also editing work on my book.
Also more Mr Foxes came to life. If you want your own aerial fox, you can find them here.
I realized the last post has been a while. I was busy enjoying the sun in the Algarve in Portugal.
Despite the lack of updates on my blog, I have been busy with my Etsy designs and was working on my never ending book project. BUT the end is near and I can hopefully get started on the next adventure one soon!
In the meantime here is a little easter bunny for you.
Download, print, fold, cut and pass it on.
Are you in need of a last minute Valentine´s card or friendship card?
Then look no further. Here is your card to download. Print, fold, cut and voila!
Honey Badger – To my partner in crime
Blue footed booby – To my partner in crime
More you can find on my Etsy.
Let me know which one is your favourite.
Hyvää ystävänpäivää (Happy Friend’s day!) Thanks for following 🙂
Yes, I have been busy. Drawing, working, editing illustrations, my first proper commission. So much so that I forgot all about the blog.
Valentine’s day is just around a corner. I prefer Friendship Day, Ystävänpäivä as they call it in Finland. Still missing a card? I put some up on my ETSY Shop.
Mood today…
Did I mention I have been drawing birds, just for fun. Any animal you would like to see next?
Print you can get here on Etsy.
Process is slow, but still process. In between my day job and working on my book I relax by coming up with new Etsy prints. Voila!
Here are some more printable cards I have been designing. Way too late as every year.
Let me know which one is you favourite?
Subscribe to my newsletter and I’ll be sending out another round of printable versions tomorrow, in case you are in need of that last minute Christmas card.
Of course if you like to support my art you can also go to my Etsy for more printable posters and cards 😉
Happy Holidays!

Or is that a sarcastic Oui Oui? For me to know and you to find out 🙂
Anyway, just uploaded the print to my Etsy.
Have a great day!
No time for nonsense. Have a great day!
Here is the third blue-footed booby poster of the series….
Do you have any bathroom art at home?
Just for fun.
Yes, what am I doing? For being a professional project manager, my art projects are currently all over the place in different stages of progress….
Instead of focusing on finishing my book, I get distracted by animal drawings and designs for Etsy….
Not sure why I am so cake focused. I had delicious baked cheesecake only yesterday! But then again, a good cake is simply a good cake.
If you are looking for a random cake card or a last minute birthday card, you can find it here in my Etsy shop.
After doing the sketches the other day, I felt like drawing some of those badgers in big. Still work in progress.
I also updated the honey badger posters in my Etsy shop if you would like a badger on your wall 🙂
Here they all are, the blue-footed boobies, dancing their mating dance. I will also upload them to my Etsy shop as downloadable prints next week if you would like to put them on your wall.
Have been messing around with the finished dog drawings to turn them into posters for my Etsy shop…. One idea was to dress them up… or to put funny hats on them… For now I only have them as curious animal prints.
What do you think?
