I’ve mentioned how proud I am of my best friend Violet and her partner Kelly on the launch of their stunning book, The Glow. So I was thrilled when they asked me to create some custom tattoos for mama and kiddos as give- aways at their book launch events. I also lettered guests/featured mama’s names on the menus of their NYC party hosted by the Hatch Collection. The tattoos and lettering were done with the Kuretake No. 13 Fountain Brush Pen that I’m obsessed with! Such a pleasure to contribute. Check out The Glow book and site for gorgeous images of the most beautiful and stylish moms ever. See a menu and the tattoo details below.

Rue La La brand book illustrations

member journey timeline
Rue La La has been one of my most fun clients this year. I’ve been illustrating lots of things for their site from interior scenes for the Home sales to Fashion details for their amazing deals on incredible designer apparel. So when they asked me to illustrate their brand book I jumped at the chance to do some work for the printed page. Their brand book is so fun. My favorite part is the member journey timeline that folds out. Here are a bunch of illustrations from the book, I can’t post them all but check Rue La La for my work here and there. More after the jump…

Essence Magazine illustrations

Essence May 2014

Sorry for the dearth of posts. I’ve been so busy with work and life and am now 6 months pregnant so have been paying more attention to certain areas of life to the detriment of others. I miss Maquette though. I thank you for tuning in and bearing with me. I hope to pick up the posting in the coming weeks. I have so much stuff I want to share and hope to be super on top of posting this summer. Here’s a quickie peek at an illustration I did for Essence Magazine, in the May issue.

“A picture is a secret about a secret, the more it tells you the less you know.”
-Diane Arbus

Have a beautiful weekend. Here in NY it’s supposed to be lovely. I’m looking forward to time with family and friends and hopefully refreshing my creative well so that Monday I can come back to my drawing table with high spirits and luster.
