A visit to Penguin Canada

Today on a very rainy Tuesday I headed to Penguin Canada to drop off my prints.

The entrance way of Penguin is lined with enlarged versions of several beautifully illustrated penguin book covers.
Two of my favourites: Glen Gould by Joe Morse and Emily Carr by Jody Hewgill. Apologies for the lousy photo - they are great covers.

Here are my 3 prints waiting to be hung in the boardroom.

Thanks so much to President Mike Bryan + his assistant Claire Holmes. xo

Warning: Design Blogs may be hazardous to your health!

Ever notice how you can feel saturated and paralyzed after reading too many designy type blogs? Sarah over at Apt therapy wrote a great post today on how to combat this overwhelming feeling (also known at Pinterest fatigue!) and love the space you're in! Tips include decluttering + rearranging furniture + art. You can read all the tips here.

Chicago!

I am off to Chicago in a few weeks.
If you're from the Windy City and have some suggestions for my trip don't hold back!
Thanks.

Very inky over here on the weekend

On the weekend in prep for my holiday sale next Saturday I printed a new edition of my big brogue shoe print.
I printed a varied edition with ochre, teal + blue versions.
Below are some pics of the process.

After the first pass with ochre ink the prints dry in my map drawers.


Here are the blue ones.

The very important pizza dinner break with my assistant.

Next day pass 2 with black ink.

Finished prints drying.
