Sending love and thanks to special people

I always send my big thank you every end of each year via email, 

to my friends, family and colleagues, 

and specially, to those wonderful people who trust in my work and ideas.

This year I made a twist and prepared a lovely card and special envelopes.

I thought this would be an excellent ritual to repeat every year. 

It is so lovely to receive a real postcard with warm wishes and thanks!

I hope they all arrive safe.

Happy Holidays!!!

Love,

Marina

Branding illustration and so much fun!

A great project!

I've been a little bit busy lately. Specially because new projects have arrived to my desk.

One in particular was commissioned by an Australian Design Company to create the image for a brand. I cannot tell much about it yet, but I can show you a few images that were not selected by the client.

This project was excellent because I had a lot of liberty and lots of fun while working on it.

 Love,

New images and updated website!!!

Hello! I have been a little bit busy
and I couldn't post them before!

I'm very proud of finally showing a few new characters 

and invite you to see my updated website!

A bear, a squirrel, a curious orchestra and a little boy and his dog. 

Aren't they just lovely?
I hope this characters find a story soon!

More to come next week.

Eustace & Clyde!

This was a fantastic year.
Specially because my first book as writer and illustrator 

was released by Five Mile Press. 

It is called Eustace and Clyde. It's about two lovely koala friends
that are looking for the perfect place to live.

It was promoted at Bologna and London Book Fairs with a lovely backlight!
Many thanks to Five Mile Press!

I'm very very proud of it and so happy of how I worked side by side
with Five Mile Press editor, Melissa. Many thanks for everything!

If you want to buy the book, you can buy it online  or in Australia.
It will be released in UK as well! I will let you know.

Oh! And if you want to see more images of it, please visit my website.

Love,
Marina

This was a great and busy year!

I would like to share with you some experiences throughout this year. 2014 was very busy and full of surprises!

On January I worked on a new Usborne's Ready For School title: Shapes! If interested you can buy it here. It's been a great experience and the book looks fantastic!

On 2013 I created the first two Usborne's Sticker Books and also were released earlier this year:  They are Alphabet Sticker Book and First Numbers Sticker Book. I had so much fun doing them! I will let you know about these characters and books soon.

 

Love,
