preparing for spring

this is a sketch of the work in progress of a new project i'm doing with two dear friends. it is always a pleasure to work on new ideas with creative people we like. and this one will arrive right on spring. in one month i'll be back with news. just wait for it to bloom...

easy knitting pattern

for the first time, i illustrated a knitting pattern - very easy one, by the way, teaching how to do a maxi collar scarf for winter. it is in portuguese, but at last ypu can appreciate the drawings. this leaflet was handed over during a knitting class andrea and I, from superziper, teached on a weekend. the pics rom that special day are here and a picture of the maxi collar is here (with a cool idea for variation).

illustration for MAKE magazine

andrea and I were invited to do a regular column for MAKE magazine about crafts & web (very nice brazilian mag by the way). for the first issue, we produced a very nice picture to illustrate what we think and I also prepared an illustration! will post the cover and the pages of the magazine soon...

elephants

Octobr 1982, at Ana Paula's birthday (the girl in blue) wearing a elephants sweater. So sweet. I wish I still had it!

business for kids

I just finished the creation of this logo for a friend's new business. Group deals websites, like Groupon, became very popular in months here in Brazil. This guy already work for the kids business, so he had this great idea of creating a site - http://www.promokids.com.br/ - for offers that would interest parents and people who buy things for kids.

As I didn't want to file immediatelly all the drafts and doodles I did during the creation phase, I thought it would be nice to share here with you part of it. I hope you enjoy taking a look into the backstage!
