Burp.
Today's scribbler is Maggi Li and her pooey brain! Haha! I reckon if this blog was Lady Gaga in her many festive skins than today would be her "day off" where she doesn't wear a lick of makeup and just hangs out in bed with her dogs, farting and eating lots of cereal. Today we keep it simple! Today we rock bed-hair, with a happy little smile on our mouth! Today we eat three bowlfuls of pasta and cheese because it's the best thing ever! Two ingredients. Done. In my face. Yum. Simple. Good. Thanks. Burrrrp.
PS - When Maggie isn't burping she's art director of the amazing kids magazine OKIDO. And I heard that if you follow her on twitter she will randomly drop £2 on the ground somewhere in London and if you find it, it's all yours babe.
THIS SIDE UP ⬆
Today's scribbler is lovely mina-milk! I know, I know... the word "lovely" is a bit overused for describing lady-illustrators. But I think in this scenario it's really true! It's a simple matter of deduction (yes I did just watch six episodes of Elementary in a row). I mean, how non-lovely could an illustrator who draws sweet sleeping kittens really be? And oh! Look! Up there. Yes: a sleeping kitten drawn with pink pen. What kind of non-lovely person owns a pink pen? Exactly. mina-milk is lovely! CASE CLOSED, bye!
PS - If you're into animals and you're into pretty drawings than you're going to have a fun time on mina-milk's blog. That's a promise. A promise with eye-contact and a firm handshake so you know I mean it.
Toe Thumbs
Hey! I spy another elephant! This week is ALLLLL about our floppy-earred chums. As it should be! Elephants are the best. Did you know that a mama elephant is pregnant for over 1.5 years (YEARS) before she gives birth to her bub? Crazy. Did you know that some newborn elephants suck their trunk for comfort like a baby human sucks their thumb? Ahhh the thought of that kills me. I melt into an emotional puddle. Here's another one: did you know that today's scribbler is Eliot Wyatt? Yes sir. Shove those tidbits into your knapsack of random trivia because these are the FACTS dude! Then go visit Eliot and tell him the thing about the cute baby elephants. He'll love that, maybe!
Scalliwaggin!
Today's scribbler is Stephanie Tillman and I'm pretty sure she's the first embroiderer we've had on the blog! She's also the first scribbler to draw for us (above) two wolves pashing on. I'm VERY sure of that. Now trying my hardest not to segue into a gross story about my first kiss with a ginger-hair boy who came at me like a motorboat and very nearly swallowed me whole. We probably looked exactly like those wolves. Except more drool and less fur! Actually I'm surprised I haven't already mentioned my first kiss on this blog because I think about it ALWAYS... and thus can no longer eat juicy mangoes. Anyway! BLEH. Let's shake off that unsexy memory and go visit Steph's etsy shop!
Me + Broccoli
Today's scribbler is Karin Soderquist from Stockholm. I like how the confetti in her "new day resolution" piles (above) match our blog header! It's not at all embarrassing, like it would be if we showed up at a nightclub wearing the exact same turquoise half shoulder pant suit jumper thing (yeah, I get fashion). It's more like when we were kids and we begged our mum to buy us the EXACT same corduroy overalls as our best friend because we NEED to match, mum pleaaaase! But now I see mature-age couples wear matching velour tracksuits and that's just silly. Or maybe awesome! I can't decide.
FOOOOD FIGHHHHHT
Are you forever daydreaming about a beef burger so tall and greasy that you'd need to unhinge your jaw just to take a bite? Well... look below, it's on the menu! Today's scribbler is Lewis Stringer. He's a London-based illustrator who's found a muse in the humble hamburger, as well as pineapple and meat trays and other edible goods. So let's metaphorically loosen that top button of our jeans and dig in. I mean, dig in with our eyeballs rather than our face hole. Take care of those arteries. Bon appetit!
Keep looking: Lewis' website
Enjoy The Trip!
Call me crazy, but yesterday's psychedelic scribbles left my eyeballs sweaty (ew) and hungry for more. SWEET RELIEF, today's scribbler is Ellie Rassia! The party continues! Actually, more so than a night rave in the forest, Ellie's scribbles (above) remind of childhood daydreams. Where everything is shiny and bright and the cereal packet dances with the Vegemite jar at breakfast time. Tomorrow I promise to give your/my eyeballs a proper wind-down, but for now... let's just enjoy the trip!
Exploding Melon Heads!
Today's scribbler is Murray Somerville, a friendly illustrator from London whose imagination it would be fun to swim around in. He seems to have an endless mixed-bag of weird creatures lurking in his pencil case, like "conjoined twins who play battleships and exploding melon heads". All that good stuff! I only mention him as "friendly" because he seemed that way via a few quick emails... and if science ever makes it so, let's hope he's friendly enough to let us jump in his ears and explode some melon heads together. Ka boom!
Acid and Disco
Today's scribbler is Cristina Polop from London. Last week I rolled out of bed, rubbed the morning dew out of my eyes and found this scribbly disco-party in my inbox. It was like a splash of water on my eyeballs! In a good way.
