Craft Travel Swap

Freepeople is organizing a new travel craft swap - Join the fun and sign up here. And have a great weekend - mine starts tonight - and I know it will be great already.

Polar - Illustration Friday

Time to participate in Illustration Friday again. I was inspired by this weeks topic- Polar- since I love Polar Bears and have a very soft spot for anything Artic after a trip to Greenland some years ago. I recently designed a folder about The International Polar Year 2007/2008, and used a photo to draw from + text from the folder - which you can download here. I also designed a magazine with focus on the Nordic contribution - which you can download here - and they are both in English! Enjoy.

marimekko exhibition

I was doing some research this weekend for Imedegoza´s Scandinavian Trip this summer, and discovered that the Danish Museum of Art & Design, have a big Marimekko exhibition right now Marimekko - the story of a Nordic brand. I hope to get a chance to see it before the 28th of May where it ends - but this museum is always worth a visit anyway - so don´t miss it - if you are planning a trip to Copenhagen! Pdf in Danish here.

my week in colour+photos

Here´s a summary of this week in my studio in pictures. 1. it´s been quiet in the kitchen with Pinklemon being in Milan for the Furniture fair. 2. I got a new "design assistent/friend" with a great taste in colour and fabric, from Minilabo. 3. I´ve done a lot af fabric-colour-trend & pattern research. 4. I´ve designed my first fabric for a client - and I´ve decided I want to be a fabric designer in my next life - or just print my own fabrics like Lara.
If you wish to design fabric too - here´s some friday fun for you - The pattern tester.

Turn it up!

After a very quiet week here at my blog - due to a busy week at my studio - it´s time to turn up the music and enjoy the new single 1234 from Feist and the cool single-shot video clip. Enjoy!

friday is red

and the tough one - I have very little red stuff at home - so here´s a glimpse of my studio instead.

I heart my desktop picture in the middle by Marion Bantje.

Here´s the final result of a collage I made some time ago, it was a commission and a wedding gift.

Camera phone

I used the Easter Holiday to test my new camera in my new mobile, and I´m quite pleased with the results and resolution. This one is from the the Botanical Garden in Aarhus.

No title

Some photos from one of our small trips this holiday - So good to get out of town and see some sea, sky and clouds.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to all of you.

I´ve wished to create an easter card for some years now - but I never get around to do it in time - so here´s a quick drawing instead.

Spring prints

Can you imagine a better match than Mav from Port2port and Camilla Engman´s illustrations - also add some wood type and some spring and you have the most wonderful set of cards. See them here.
