Katie Green’s
work is no stranger here at Pikaland. She’s a lovely UK-based illustrator who produced a yummy vegan baking book and now she’s turned to making zines called the Green Bean!
Katie’s work never fails to make me smile – she has a way with words and her pretty illustrations will inspire you to pick up a pen and draw along with her. (That’s what I did really, because I’m going to be a guest star in her third issue!)
Printed in limited editions of 250 copies, this zine is chock full of stories, recipes and crafty patterns & instructions for you to sew up a storm. There’s book reviews in there (we share the same love of books!) poems, doodles and random tidbits too. She’s like a fun UK-based Martha Stewart, all printed in 100% recycled paper and wrapped with love! All in all, it’s a great read on a cool afternoon, best enjoyed with a cup of tea in hand.
Pick up a copy of the monthly Green Bean zine (or better yet, a subscription) at her Etsy shop and read about her adventures on her blog she goes through the process of drawing her first graphic novel!
