Last year, I had several people ask me if I had made any magnets lately.
I hadn’t, but it made me think about how much I love to make art that is for everyday use.
Art that inspires you and that invites whimsy into everyday – even when you are reaching for the milk for your morning coffee.
So, after the fifth person asked me about making magnets, and after a huge studio clean-out where I actually found magnets, I decided to make some new ones.
And because I believe in the power of a good affirmation, I also decided to add some that have resonated with me lately.
I was so excited to debut these at River and Wren earlier this month, but funny story – I accidentally glued the magnets on backwards… Who knew that some magnets only worked on one side…
So the magnets never made their grand debut and instead (unless you grab one now) will be debuted at next weekend’s Canberra Handmade Market!
You can click on the image to see more detail – there are lots of background details shining through some of these, which I adore. That combined with the vibrant colours, whimsy bIg-eyed girls, strong meaningful quotes – I absolutely love them and would happily keep them all…. alas!
Let me know which one is your favourite. Which quote speaks to you? What quote would you love to see illustrated on a magnet??
From my whimsy world to yours.
