NEW MUM & BABY SECTION ON THE WEBSITE!

we have been meaning to add this to teeandtoast for a very long time, but finally it is here. the new mums & babies page on our website has more products for very little bundles of joy. babygro's & long sleeved tee's printed with our most popular baby friendly designs are now available. GO CHECK THEM OUT!!!


our latest model for teeandtoast is 1 year old Malcolm from LA. he loves yogurt, as well as playing "go fetch" and running around in circles. he is the gorgeous son of my wonderful friends Lena & Rodd, who where over visiting during a whirlwind adventure from Korea to LA! thanks for letting Malcolm model for me, & thanks for coming to visit!

pablo's boys on tour golf polo's

This was a little job i did at the start of the summer for my big brother Paul and his golf pal's, who where over for an Irish golf tournament. (i don't think they won - but they should have at least got a prize for the best golf polo's!)

Next year there will be 12 of them, so i'll have to put my thinking cap on for an even better design!

VICTORY!!!!!

As I pottered around the house recently I noticed all the decorations are kinda all about me. gnomes, mushrooms, snoopy, pigs, fairies, vintage fisherprice toys, butterflies, teapots, toasters & lots of rainbow coloured objects. So I felt sorry for my other half and thought what things would he maybe like to fill the house with... surfing, mountains, rivers, maps... grrrrrr! it's all very outdoorsy stuff.

so I came up with this little doodle to add a bit of "my guy" to the house. he likes mountains & occasionally he climbs them. he especially likes climbing snowy mountains, I imagine (as i'll never be there to wittness such events!) that when he climbs to the top he puts his arms in the air and screams "Victory!!!!" just like his favourite character from Entourage, Johnny Drama.


So he hasn't seen it yet, i'll let you know how long it takes for him to notice his mountain that is now situated under a fairy... with a mushroom on one side & a hummingbird on the other!

silly summer photo shoot

We recently had a quick little photo shoot whilst on holiday in Donegal with some of my family. A big thanks to my silly billy models - my wonderful nieces Evie 10, Jasmin 6 & Hariot 2. Believe it or not, there was a bit a shyness to begin with but then they got into the smiley swing of things.

Keep an eye on the website as we will be uploading lots of lovely picture soon.

HUGS WILL SAVE US

for some reason koalas was the 1st thought that came into my head when i heard the title of this fun illustration competition. i was going to have a big scary monster down below, but i thought little koalas hugging on for life was endearing enough. hee hee.

rand renfrow seems to be the brains behind the test everything zines. each month he gives a theme and calls for hand drawn submissions. so the theme this month is "Hugs Will Save Us" and you can only use the colours orange & black.

Fingers crossed our little koalas will make it through to the final 16 that get printed into a zine, but if not it was good to draw new friends :)
