Sacrifice print

Flossy Particles recently moved from Sydney, Australia, to a small coastal town on the north coast of New South Wales, and is now (very) happily freelancing in illustration while exploring other crafty ventures.

Mini print: Whalesong

She mentioned to me in my other blog, about her leaving a full-time job 18 months ago, and although the money wasn’t as much as it was before, it definitely made her a happier person.

She now uses her time to stock her Etsy shop that has some of her prints, and she also sells her originals and her handmade bags over at Artstream studios. I’m also a fan of her blog where she talks about her projects and her journey so far.

Thanks for the inspiration flossy-p! 🙂

Julia Freund is a German-born freelance illustrator now residing in France, and she has a portfolio site called Lineanongrata where she showcases her drawings, sketches and a few pages from a children’s book project called Mister Fromfaraway.

She sells her prints, buttons and printed t-shirts in her shop, where my favourite character is her scratching cat (who also greets me on her portfolio site!)

I’m late in announcing this, but the very lovely Jo from Desire to Inspire wrote a blurb about Pikaland among her pages here.

Thanks so much, Jo!
