The Indian nod

Last weekend Stefan and Göran came for a visit here in Malmö. Göran and his girlfriend Stina had recently been in India and he showed us the Indian nod. Back in Stockholm Göran catched a cold with a fever. So to cheer him up I animated Little Miss India doing the Indian nod:

Fountain celebrates The 15 Year Itch with a new website and some new typefaces. And the launch of my wings and dings for Göran's typeface, Flieger. Happy Birthyear!

The Animal ABC poster is here!

To celebrate this I'm having a competition. The first price is a poster for free. And the second price is a poster for free :)

In this post I wrote that minor changes might happen before print. There are five (5) changes (no more, no less). Find them, send me an e-mail at lotta (a) bruhnfamily (dot) com (the comments are closed in this post) with the subject 'ABC poster competition' and a list with the five changes. The competition ends on June 18 20, 2008.

Elliott and Adrian will pick one winner each. Good luck to all of you!

I got a fan mail!

It was from Trini (from Spain?) and she wanted to show me this felt broach she had made with my owl as inspiration. Cute! :D

A first peek of the whole ABC poster. Minor changes might happen before print:

This could be the next tray

But first of all – thanks to all owl tray buyers :) I hope you are pleased with the new light in your life. Also the owl tray and the ABC poster have been selected to the exhibition, Child's play, at Form/Design Center (June 18 - September 7). I'm so über happy!

The next tray?

Have a nice week!

Owl tray – soon available.

I'm having the cold from hell, but still happy; I got this prototype from the tray maker:

Desperately seeking agent!

It's been over a year since my first post. The goal for 2008 is to find a nice agent to represent me and my illustrations. I've recently sent out e-mails to agents I like. If you're an agent and haven't recieved any e-mail from me, it doesn't mean that I don't like you, I just don't know that you excist. I would love hearing from you :)

New pins – Bully and Kekomi & Friends

They arrived last week – 25 mm (1")!

Tomorrow I'll post another star sign (Maria!) :)

Oh happy day! :)

Siamese in tree – part 2

I'm one of the participants to Sketchel series 2 and I've already posted an illustration of my idea. This is the workflow from sketch to "ready-to-go-to-Sydney":
