This picture has no filter on it, and it's not regular half-light. This orange atmosphere is caused by the Australian fires. In New Zealand, we've been seeing sunsets and haze affected by the fire and smoke across the ditch, but to my knowledge it has never been quite like this (in Auckland, at least). . . . . . . . . #australianfires #orangeskies #apocalyptic #help

#Inktober day 9! Pittens wants to make it clear that he DOES NOT approve of this costume, it absolutely was forced on him. I'm enjoying drawing this way :o no pencils, just ink and dipping pen and therapeutic swirling. . . . . . . . . #inktober2019 #pittens #catsincostumes #drawing #ink #kitty #illustration #catdrawing #blackcat #fuzzy #heart

Good morning! As a small handful of you may know, I've recently decided to start a business! I'll be designing stationery in a variety of styles and handmaking a lot of products from recycled materials. Feel free to have a geeze at my dedicated profile @mudlane_workshop to follow progress ❤🌸 . . . . . . . . . #startingabusiness #girlboss #handmade #business #design #stationery #ecofriendly #recycledart #recycling #illustration

A little animation loop I've been working on, playing around with some effects and discovered how easy it is to make a Kaleidoscope 😍😍 I've been blasting @ison444 's new album basically non stop since it released so the inspiration might be obvious :p much love to @solarsiren and @fuzzrocker for creating the most incredible Sonic experiences ❤❤ . . . . . . . . . . . . #animation #scifi #psychedelic #kaleidoscope #art #music

Well, Chromacon was a success and one hell of a learning experience! Made new friends with the most excellent people and chatted to a lot of little kids thanks to this doodle checkpoint I set up. Thanks so much to everyone who came by to support and chat with us, and thank you so much to the organizers and team chroma who made it possible and kept the machine running smoothly!

Last year I had the pleasure of illustrating a children's book for a group of amazing 17-year olds in the Manawatu, known as Thirteen7. 'Pio the Whio Needs a New Home' tells the story of a little New Zealand Blue Duck (or Whio, as they are known here) who goes on an adventure to find a new home after his own home is covered in litter. It's a sweet, uplifting story that teaches kids about keeping their environment and their homes clean and litter-free, and they get to meet some other native critters along the way! It was published both in English and Te Reo Maori, as pictured. :) It was a rollercoaster ride, and it was fun and rewarding as heck! Love these kids, and I really wish them every success and happiness in their very bright futures! . . . . . . . . . #childrensbook #book #publishing #illustration #childrensillustrations #duckling #kiwi #proudlynz #conservation #wasteawareness

Testing the waters with home made oat milk! Personally I find it to be a bit of an acquired taste, but then I've never really been fond of dairy alternatives other than lighter soy milks. Think I might just fine-tune the recipe a little to suit my tastes - not bad at all, though! . . . . . . . . #oatmilk #journeytovegan #experiment #sustainability #gonegreen

Slowly but surely changing my lifestyle to reduce waste and live more sustainably. So far I've begun reducing my meat and animal product intake, avoiding buying plastics by going to local produce shops and whole food refilleries, replaced detergents/skincare/haircare with plant-based, plastic- and cruelty free products, avoiding synthetic fabrics and fast fashion, recycling everything I can, and now I am studying up a bit on vertical and mobile herb and veggie gardens so I can grow my own and also pot a few flower plants for bees. Got these babies for a bargain at the Unity Books sale pop-up today in Auckland, best money I've spent in ages. 👌💪 . . . . . . . . #reducewaste #zerowaste #plantbased #sustainability #sustainableliving #journeytovegan #plasticfree #bookshelf

I got to finally see my girl in IMAX last night and I was left floored at the quality. Those fight scenes doe 👀 even got a couple cheers from the audience. So immensely proud and humbled and thankful to have worked with so many incredible and talented human beings on an IP I've loved for a long time. It was an incredible and often gruelling experience, and I'd learned so much while working on it. Congratulations to all my friends and colleagues who made her come to life, after so long the end is finally officially here and she is gloriously beautiful. Love you all ❤💓 . . . . . . . #Alita #BattleAngel #teamAlita #fuckyourmercy #wetaDigital #vfx #animation

My little fluff bean isn't doing so well and needs to be put to rest tomorrow so she doesn't suffer more, so I'm spending today and tomorrow with her at home. And because my work is such a wonderful place full of wonderful people, I received these beautiful flowers and a nice lunch as a surprise. Thank you so much @duckling_publishing @indiarosek you guys are the bees knees. ❤❤❤

It has been a pretty devastating new year. On Tuesday afternoon my tiny little girl Saoirse was diagnosed with renal lymphoma, and the prognosis isn't good. She started treatment this morning and I am desperately hoping she responds well. For the next few months all my energy will be focused on keeping her as comfortable and spoiled as possible, and hopefully getting her to gain some weight. My heart is in tiny little shreds and I'm not sure how I'll move on when she's gone, but I'm happy I got to give her a comfortable loving home and that I am lucky enough to have such an affectionate and gentle little soul in my life. ❤❤❤

I had the privilege of seeing Steven Wilson perform live for a second time on Monday evening. I sat center stage, about 5 or 6 rows from the front, and seeing the man so closely I became a near blubbering mess as soon as they walked on stage. Needless to say, it was absolutely perfect and I may or may not have shed tears. Thank you for your incredible music, for coming all the way to New Zealand, and for filling me with peace after a time of anxiety. . . . . . #stevenwilson @stevenwilsonhq
