mokuhanga prints in my shop
I've just put some of my new mokuhanga prints in my online shop. 
I printed these while I was in Japan and have just completed signing and preparing them. There are two versions of this little imaginary trumpet flower, one in blues and one in red and green...
And there are blue and pink peonies too.
Hope you'll pop by my shop and consider a purchase for yourself or as a gift!
shop update
I've just added some peony teacup etching prints into my online shop, hurrah! 
Some are from my archive: they're small editions and very sweet... 
and there are two new hand-painted ones too. I love this one with the polka dots!
All the funds I raise are going towards my mokuhanga printmaking residency in Japan this summer. Please spread the word if you know anyone who might like to purchase a print, thank you!
my shop!
I've finally launched my own little online shop! I'm going to Japan this summer for a mokuhanga print residency, and to help with funding it I've decided to try and sell some prints. There's a new small cat + jug print, exclusively and for the first time on sale:
A new version of my Meyer Lemon print, this time with gold pigment in the lemons:
And a selection of my San Francisco Snowdome prints...
Please go and take a look and let me know what you think. Happy shopping!
Pyaar
I recently designed the logo for new lifestyle store Pyaar in Hong Kong. It features hand-made and eco-friendly products from around the world, with a relaxed and modern aesthetic, and I tried to show this in the logo. 
I hope you'll all drop by! Totally loving the house-shaped cookies...
Kate Spade party
in drawings, hong kong, illustration, painting, travel
Kate Spade has just opened a shiny new store in Pacific Place shopping mall in Hong Kong, and I was asked to be a guest artist at the opening party. I drew sketches of the customers and VIPs (who had each been given a fabric flower to wear for the event), and gave them to everyone to keep as a souvenir gift.
It was fun! I kept the portraits light, pretty, and in the style of the evening. Each one had a dash of watercolour red and pink for the flowers, and took under five minutes to complete. I think most of the guests were happy with their pictures...
I had expected it to be mostly women, but alot of men sat for me also, which was great.
There were a few local celebrities there, and I even drew a portrait for Stephy, a canto-pop singer.
Check out all the HK stores (ifc, Harbour City & Elements, as well as PP) if you're into super nice handbags and accessories!
