Giveaway Winner!

sorry for the long wait everyone! my only excuse is the dreaded flu!

my winner is Mrs Portswood (Catherine @hepvintage) who suggested that the birds are carrying amazing hats with fine feather plumes!

"Clearly the envelopes are carrying orders for splendid hats which the birds fashion from their unwanted feathers in their nest ateliers. The packages are the hats themselves on their way to the customers."

Postcards.....and a wee giveaway!

I LOVE postcards and I have a huge drawer full of them - they also fill every available shelf and space on my wall! Here's a few lovely postcards I recieved recently from some of my favourite illustrators (and people)
top left - a super christmas post card by the amazing Anke Weckmann
bottom middle - you can pick one of the top Thereza Rowe's postcards at your local cinema as she designed the promo material for 'The Thorn in the Heart' by Michel Gondry.
bottom right and left - The lovely Yelena Bryksenkova sent me some of her postcard sized ladies.

and a wee giveaway! Amelia sent me a stack of postcards with my Christopher Raeburn image from her new book (You can read my blog about it here) I will pick three from any comments left below and send them one of these postcards!

giveaway! a creature of rare beauty!

hello! I am Lesley and I like to draw. cut stuff out and make things move.....I thought that I should start a blog for 2011.....so to get a headstart I decided that a special giveaway might be just the ticket.....
If you are feeling a bit chilly this winter how would you like to win your very own firebird? whilst the actual firebird is, I'm afraid, too rare and delicate to send by post I have up for grabs a very special concertina print! The concertina is printed over two sides and is over one and a half metres long - perfect for that empty shelf.
"But Lesley how do I get my little hands on this creature of rare wonder and beauty?" I can hear literally no-one asking!
Well.......all you need to do is tell the firebird what you would do with a golden apple (just leave your answer as a comment below)
After the new year has begun the firebird will dive his beak into the comments and randomly pull one out - the golden comment - the winner!
And if you just can't wait that long you can get your mitts on some ace firebird prints from soma here
