Loving the work of Tom Moglu – look at those patterns rendered in watercolor and those collage pieces! He used to sell prints of his collages here but seem to have taken a hiatus for a bit. Maybe someone should tell him to start it up again, hmm? 😉

This week’s giveaway of an illustrated Smashed at Sea necklace comes from Tsai-Fi (pronounced sci-fi), a shop that’s stocked with kawaii-based original illustrations and handmade items. Never did it cross my mind that mermaids were the ones having the most fun – I thought dolphins were the only ones rocking the ocean! Also of note are the custom tattoos that others have commissioned from her – see more on Tsai-Fi’s blog.
One lucky winner will be chosen; comment by 6th April to be in the running!
UPDATE: Commenting has now closed, thanks so much for participating. The winner of this giveaway is Karlaane.



Sarah is an illustrator who runs the Petit Reve Etsy shop with her daughter Michel, and right now she’s raising funds to send her daughter for a foreign exchange trip (to France too, oh my!). So if you’d like to see one lady achieve her dream of going to the land of cheese, head on over to her lovely shop to pick up a print! Sarah’s blog, UnicornPoo also has a lovely collection of her work.
Aren’t moms the best?
