Visit my etsy shop! www.majawolnik.etsy.com

Hello,

I'm sooooooooo excited to launch my etsy shop! After what seems like an eternity, with lots of photo taking, image editing, description writing and shipping profile developing, my online store is finally up and running.

Now, instead of just gazing at my wonderful art on screen, you can use your clever little mouse to click away, order online and pay through PayPal to receive my unique creations in your hot little hands - all within a few days! Easy.

I love etsy and so should you - so follow me and start owning some of my original artwork... majawolnik.etsy.com.

Tree again again!

It's been a while since I blogged, mainly because I was off gallivanting around Melbourne, Australia visiting my family and meeting my gorgeous niece Ela.

But I'm back in Vancouver with the Olympics party in full swing. As soon as I got back I became re-captivated by those bare trees - again!

I know I should be drawing the athletes, the crazy crowds downtown or the snow-less slopes but all I can look at is those gorgeous dwindling branches... I just want to hug them! They must be anxious for spring to come (which by the way looks like its almost here).

So, here's another, well, tree, this time on a great big new sketch pad using conte and charcoal. Done on the studio floor.

Illustration Friday - Wilderness

It's been a while since I drew something for Illustration Friday, but this week's topic of wilderness coincides with some illustrations I'm working on for an article about wild Australian bush food.

For now I am just experimenting with the style and materials - I have chosen pencil, water-soluble pencils and ink to create this drawing of a wild lime, also known as desert lime.

Mmmmm.
