2012 Desk Calendar {pre-order}

Taking pre-orders until Friday November 11 for my 2012 desk calendar right here :)

If you happen to be outside of Australia, and keen - apart from being REALLY CHUFFED, I can give you a better idea of postage once I look further into it, so please email me

I now have a Made It shop!

I have set up a made it shop! I thought I would give it a shot as I have a few prints left in my office and would love to clear them out to make room for some new ones

{ IF } Scary


I don't like scary things. So here's a pic of Bambi :)
I am sure if you are browsing Illy Friday this week you might be sick of seeing scary things so this may be a nice, calming break.
Pencil and watercolour, with scans of vintage wallpapers (trying something a little different). Love the way watercolour follows the pencil lines. Fun.

Illy Friday - Contraption

My fiance Toby is great at making handy contraptions like the image above. Pictured is the original 6 prong Weiner Roaster that was made for our neighbours Andrew and Denise for the Canadian Party we had on the weekend. Such a timesaver - roasting 6 weiners instead of 1 at a time :)

Upon review, Toby is a bit upset I have missed out a lot of delicate details such as the angle of the prong and such. But we don't have all day for this.

Illy Friday - Hibernate


I learnt something new today. Ladybirds hibernate in the Winter. Thousands of them go and hang out together until Spring time comes along. Cute hey.

Illy Friday - Mesmerizing

How can you not be mesmerized by the way ballet dancers gracefully float around, so light on their feet. Although these girls look like they are a bit clunky they are dancing better than me.

Europe Postcards {1 year on} Still plugging away




Been plugging away still with this little project on my Facebook page. It is keeping me entertained looking back over journal entries, that is for sure! Heading on a little break in two days! Hooray! I need some sun. This time last year was awesomely stinking hot, I miss that!

Just Draw More Bianca: Illustration Friday - Fearless

Just Draw More Bianca: Illustration Friday - Fearless: Everyone is fearless when they are younger. Good to go back to that mindset that ANYTHING is possible if you put your mind to it. Quick pen ...

So I was a little bit lazy and re-used this illy as the Illy Friday word was disguise. I will be better once I return from holidays!

Europe Postcards {1 year on}



To keep myself a little creative I have been trying a 'one-a-day' project. Nothing to the extent of the crazy and very talented/committed Mr Ben Hood, but only for the 5 and a half weeks of my Euro Trip last year. Am going through my journal entry for the day and doing a quick little postcard based on the events I wrote about.

It's nice to come across the little things I have forgotten about along the way, and also a friend suggested yesterday that I could make a travel quilt at the end. Brilliant idea. Or even cushions. The drinks poster will eventually become a cushion I think. A bit of fun anyway to get through the remainder of winter :)

The series can be found on my facebook page.

{ IF } Imperfect

All of my artwork is full of imperfections. And I like that. Perfect sucks! :)
