Thank you so much for coming along for the Good to Know project!

As a token of appreciation, you can download the PDF copy of the zine above for free, and if you’d like to have a copy to keep, we’ll send it to you for just USD$4.00 (I’ve tried to see if I could afford to send it to everyone for free, but I don’t think that’s possible — so this price will cover the minimum shipping + misc fees!)

I would love it if you would love to participate again in the next issue! The topic for the FIFTH issue is below, and you can email me with your reply anytime before the 2nd of September:

Do you think that artists need to have degrees/qualifications from art school in order to be one? Did you study art? Does it matter?

Big hugs,

p/s—the complimentary issue is for you only! I would appreciate that you do not share this link with others — if you’d like to direct others to the Good to Know zine, please direct them to this page: www.pikaland.com/goodtoknow.

Thanks guys!

When I had a look at Binny Talib’s website, I fell in love instantly! You can see her style right off the bat (and of course, I love how her illustrations lend a “handmade” feel to her website). My favourite category of her works has to be those that she did for books — she seems to have illustrated quite a few.

She is based in Sydney and was previously an art director before she went on to become an illustrator — I’ve been noticing quite a few others who made the same career transition as well!

Giveaway #5 comes from Miss Jo Cheung who has assembled a very birdy package just in time for summer! There’s the Bird Pocket Mirror, Bird Greetings Card, Owl Postcard, Postcard and a Sticker set (with all sorts of small lovelies in there!), all of which total USD$20.

Just comment to enter by 25th August and the winner will be notified by email!

UPDATE: Commenting has now closed, thanks for participating!
