just wanted to let you all know i'm dontating 50% of all sales in my etsy shop this month to the red cross disaster relief in japan. such awful news, i cannot begin to imagine what turmoil they must be going through. my heart goes out to all those wonderfully brave people. 

if you'd like to get involved with sharing love and support to those effected by the horrific events in japan check out illustration rally's ganbare nippon : japan tsunami appeal sumbit/donate/get involved. you will find more links to donation websites there too ♥

in other news, i heard yesterday that my design had won this week's competition over at all tropical, which is beyond ace! so massive thank yous and hi fives to all of you who voted. My design will soon be printed and available to buy in t shirt form to adorn your wonderful torsos. 

also incase you missed it the lovely ladies over at ballad of... did a little feature on my work the other day, do have a peek. 

zine time

the very clever jo spencer has been a busy bee creating this little zine of soupa's recent antics. 

updated wwwebsite

I've updated a few little things on my website, removed some old pieces of work and added some new drawings to my portfolio. Do pop on over and take a look, i'd love to know what you think ...

Also don't forget there is still time to vote for my t shirt design from my previous post, over at all tropical. winners are chosen not just on 'palm rating' but on comments, facebook likes and tweets/retweets so feel free to do any of those wonderful things ... pretty peas ♥

all tropical

i don't usually ask (or beg) for favours, but i'm making a little exception here ... i have made this little drawing into a tshirt design on alltropical.com - if you've not been there before it's a jolly little site where you rate tshirt designs. every friday a winner is picked to have their design printed onto real life tshirts and sold in their online shop, exciting stuff.

it would be smashing if you could pop on over there and rate my design (preferably 5 palms of course) also if you're feeling extra lovely, you could leave a little comment on there too, that would be wonderful. you will have to log in to cast your leafy vote but it only takes two ticks and i'll ♥ you forever. you can also vote by 'liking' my design on facebook or tweeting about it on twitter
