Look at this amazing wardrobe project by Claire McLeod using my Kiwiana Beach design 💛🧡🖤💚👏😁 I often create different scales of my designs for different applications, this is the small scale version of the design, so if you ever need a different size version of an existing design, send me a message and I can usually help you out!

It has taken me a few days but I've finished my Kea drawing 💚🖤 I love doing all the different feather patterns, but they did take a while this time 😊 #mystaedtler #kea #nznative #newzealand #bird #nznativebird #blackandwhite #illustrator #artist #illustrationgram #illustration #drawing #artwork #art #nzartist #sketchbook #cheekyparrot #feathers #nzbirds #birddrawing #newzealandbirds #birdart https://www.instagram.com/p/CDIMLBMAAnV/?igshid=ffuz8npz9t27

#wip enjoying the winter sunshine streaming in as I work on a new Kea illustration 😊 Love drawing feathers and patterns with my @staedtler pigment liners 🖤 Making the most of my gorgeous nails by @_mani_cure before I get them redone tomorrow 💅💖 #manicureclientcomp #mystaedtler #illustrator #artist #illustrationgram #illustration #drawing #artwork #art #nzartist #workinprogress #sketchbook #kea #nznative #newzealand #bird #nznativebirds #blackandwhite #drawingvideos #staedtlerpens #workfromhome #birddrawing #artvideo #nzart #nzbirds #handdrawn https://www.instagram.com/p/CC975TKg-9L/?igshid=hjjn3jut6pbr

Last page in my sketchbook 🌿 Its a weird feeling when you fill up a sketchbook, a mixture if accomplishment mixed with sadness and the pressure of the first page of a new one. Not sure if this will become anything or just be a doodle, sometimes its nice to just draw for fun with no purpose 😊 #mystaedtler #illustrator #artist #illustrationgram #illustration #drawing #artwork #art #nzartist #sketchbook #doodle #leaves #foliage #pattern #drawforfun https://www.instagram.com/p/CCw6q24gkhu/?igshid=1192cidkm5yya

Redid my Tui drawing, much happier with this version 😊 I do love black pen drawing and creating patterns with the feathers 🖤 Think I will turn it into an art print... possibly a fabric design too... #tui #tuidrawing #illustrator #artist #illustrationgram #illustration #drawing #artwork #art #nzartist #nznativebird #nznative #newzealand #bird #supportlocal #sketchbook #supportsmallbusiness #mystaedtler @staedtler https://www.instagram.com/p/CCsJUoUp8U0/?igshid=7gsr4ml39ecm

Trying to do my own branding is the hardest!!! Playing around with logos and lettering, hopefully something comes together! Featuring my super fun gel nails by @_mani_cure, definitely one of my fav sets so far ❤ #manicureclientcomp Watch this space for some exciting new things coming, Penny Royal Design is getting an upgrade 😁💛😎 #nalfie #brightnails #gelnails #drawingvideo #handlettering #graphicdesigner #graphicdesign #illustrator #artist #illustrationgram #illustration #logodesign #selfbranding #nzartist #nzdesigner #wip https://www.instagram.com/p/CChlM1AAzsr/?igshid=ijk1r9pdide8

I LOVE it when people send me photos of my fabric designs in their homes! The lovely Christine sent me these photos of a Table Runner she bought through @spoonflowerhome of my Mountain or Ocean? design. annnnndddd to make it even better she had this to say about it... "Makes me feel good every time I walk into my dining room. Thanks!" ❤❤❤😁😍 SOoooo grateful!!! The funny thing with this design is it was designed to just be a 1 yard cheater quilt or wall hanging - it doesn't even repeat properly - I mirror repeated it so that it doesn't have a weird line, but its not a truly seamless repeat, but people are still loving it for all sorts of projects! https://www.spoonflower.com/en/home-decor/dining/table-runner/9537214-mountain-ocean-1-yard-abstract-landscape-by-pennyroyal https://www.spoonflower.com/en/fabric/9537214-mountain-ocean-1-yard-abstract-landscape-by-pennyroyal @spoonflower #illustrator #illustration #spoonflowerchallenge #surfacedesign #surfacepatterndesign #patternoftheday #fabric #printondemand #nzartist #artist #illustrationgram #fabricdesign #spoonflower #spoonflowerdesigner #spoonflowered #tablerunner #spoonflowerhome #pattern #homedecor https://www.instagram.com/p/CCZ4mx1A-nP/?igshid=1c5gj8qs8x73i

Night time doodles 🖤 In a foliage zone tonight. I love drawing with @staedtler #pigmentliners in my sketchbook.

Drawing in progess... getting my mojo back after lockdown... a creative brain is a tricky thing, easily affected by emotions and stress and I just can't force it when I'm not feeling it. But had a request for more native NZ birds done in my hand drawn black outline style, loving this Tui and her feathers ❤ Thinking prints of this one 😊 #tui #wip #progresspic #illustrator #artist #illustrationgram #illustration #drawing #artwork #art #nzartist #supportlocal #supportsmallbusiness #art #native #handdrawn #nznative #newzealand #bird #pattern #feathers @staedtler #staedtlerpens https://www.instagram.com/p/CBwa73dAPQJ/?igshid=4z3udi1rm13z
