This year's Easter eggs. 🌷🐣
Bribed myself to work on taxes (😭) with the promise of hot cocoa and some time to work on this pattern afterwards. If it looks familiar, I started this in my sketchbook back in February and showed the painting in progress here.
Sewed myself a dress (the Tova pattern from @shopwiksten ) using one of the designs from Eloise's Garden. I absolutely love this pattern - I made the shirt version a few years back and wear it all the time. The only modifications I made this time around were a shorter collar and a little extra length. Overall, I'm super happy with the way this turned out (as evidenced by the second image). #wikstentova #figofabrics
"Anne's Kindred Spirits" comes out next month and I'm so excited to have a copy in my hands! 🌿 Inspired by Anne of Green Gables, it was an absolute delight to illustrate and @kallie.george retells Anne's story so wonderfully. I'll be sure to share more of the interior illustrations, soon.
All the snow melting here has me thinking of the Snow Maiden folktale and I couldn't resist doing a quick sketch of her. ❄️🌿 . #illustration #sketchbook
An illustration I showed in progress last summer, but never completely finished. 🌸 Looking at this makes me feel ready for spring, hoping I can finally pack up the snow shovel and start planning a vegetable garden. Also, pretty excited not to have to wear multiple layers of sweaters. 🙌
Something I stitched earlier in the winter, that I finally got around to hanging up on the wall.
Happy Saint Patrick's Day! 🇮🇪☘️
I "finished" this sketchbook, but on flipping through, found a couple abandoned pages. I'm challenging myself to rework those, using collage and gouache mostly. I'm keeping what feels right and reworking what doesn't. And when all else fails, I cover everything up with paint and start over. It feels good to reclaim these last few pages, before I move onto a new book. #sketchbook
Happy Pancake Tuesday! 🥞
