I bought nested dolls this week from Mister Hope, an illustrator whose work I instantly fell in love with at Thought Bubble in November last year.
When I saw he was painting these dolls last week I knew I wanted them and eagerly waited for them to be posted in his Etsy shop.
If you like these nesting monsters as much as I do then you should check out Mister Hope’s website and have a look through his gallery.
I coloured in a few of my tags a couple of months ago and have been meaning to show you them on here since then. My laptop was too old to allow me to do anything in Photoshop in less than an hour though so I couldn’t find the time to sit down and post them.

As Mark and I are both big fans of Tado, we were eager to get our hands on the prints that they had created for this exhibition.
I ended up buying 3 prints in total by Tado, Aaron Miller and JamFactory; all of whom are designers/illustrators I’ve been following lately and drooling over their work a little. I’m very happy to have been able to buy some of their prints!

So I’ve been drawing, as usual. You want to see what I did today? Go right ahead:
New drawing!

Mad wizard skills.
I need to stop drawing so many things with their arms in the air like this…
