🩵 This little guy is carrying the sun into 2024! 🩵

I know that 2023 has been a difficult one on lots of levels, and continues to be, for so many friends, family, and folk around the world. I very much hope that 2024 brings better times for everyone.

For me, the last year brought its own personal challenges and losses which affected my productivity and creativity in ways that I had never before experienced. It has been frustrating and stressful but amid it all, I learned a lot - particularly the importance of slowing down and taking time out. If you’re a freelancer, you’ll especially understand how hard that is to do, even when things are going well. 🙂

Right now, I feel like there is still quite a lot to unpack but I look forward to returning to my studio later in the month and seeing what the new year brings. 💛

Much love and big hugs to you all!

Friends - tell me something about you!

It’s getting so hard to keep up with old friends and new followers on here, so I’d love to get to know you a little better. I’ll start -
I’m Linzie and I live in London, UK and this year I learned to slow down and appreciate the little things more. 🩵

What about you? Did you learn a new skill, or gain some new wisdom. Serious or silly, I’d love to hear them!

And I promise you - I DO read all my comments. 🩵

Happy Grumpy Christmas! Here’s my favourite way to celebrate the holiday season - with this sullen Santa doodle! This little fella is super easy to draw and looks great on a last minute Christmas card or gift tag. 😀

I used brush pens, a white gel pen and some pencils but you can use anything you have at home.

As always, I love to see your own versions of #grumpysanta. Be sure to tag me so I can share on my stories. Happy holidays everyone! ❤️🎄❤️🎄❤️

Friends! Watch out for this fake account. Please block and report these stinky fraudsters - this is nothing to do with me. 😡😡😡

This often happens when you try to run a giveaway. Sigh.

Which one is your favourite? Santa, the reindeer dog or the party people? 🎄🎄

I have to admit that creating my own line of Christmas cards has been on my illustrator bucket list for a really long time. These cards are from a series of six holiday cards that I created with the fine folks at @lagomdesign.

You can purchase them from select boutiques and gift stores internationally or follow the link in my bio to buy them direct from the Lagom website. 😍

I’m not sure you can tell in the video, but they are printed on real nice card with embossing and metallic foil which gives them a lovely letterpress-style look. I adore them!
