Doinky Doodles

Some of you may be familiar with Maki Squarepatch, a shop run by two sisters, Xin and Enqi who makes these wonderfully offbeat bags, stuffed toys and clothes from recycled clothes.

Fast forward two years and Xin just set up her own portfolio at Doinky Doodles as the two began to pursue their individual goals and dreams. She also runs a new Etsy shop where you can find what she does best — piecing together pre-loved items to make huggable creations.

She’s also an artist, and you can see her fabulous zines and follow her via her Flickr stream.

To share!

Miss Gemma Correll is at it again, and this time she and her posse called Girls Who Draw that includes Clare Power (Bogus baby), Jess Bradley, Gemma Correll, Currentstate (aka Jane Anderson), Zoë Darnell (Mmm…Biscuits!), Yee Ping Kuit, Yee Ting Kuit, Tanya Meditzky, Karoline Rerrie, and Sarah Ray, made a postcard set called the Misfits Postcard Book filled with all their wonderful work.

Lisa Johnston is holding an online sale of her bird drawings exclusively through her site! This is the first of her quarterly online art sale — each of them are one-of-a-kind, silkscreened monoprint on 3/4 birch plywood, with 42 pieces to choose from.

And thank you to Gaia for letting me know of a special giveaway of her beautiful cards just in time for Christmas. Her illustrations are adorable, and you can also have a look around her shop too!

Fontaine Anderson

Fontaine Anderson is an illustrator based in Adelaide, South Australia and I’ve been clicking through her drawings for almost an hour! Her drawings are beautifully textured, with very fine details — I love her subtle color palette too and admire how she makes certain images pop just by using the right amount of color.

I can’t tell you very much, but I know that she is inspired by her dreams, Japanese textiles, Egyptian gods, 1980’s clip art, fashion and music, and these elements are quite evident in her work.

You can also order a print from her shop where all her work from her portfolio can be made into one. I’m hoping her blog will be up soon!
