New Batch of Drawings

Ever the fan of vintage, antique and old materials, I recently found an old illustrated French Dictionary from 1919. Each of its 791 pages are full of illustrations, maps and little surprises and are the perfect material to embark on a project.

The drawing project is essentially an idea to fill every page of the dictionary with a drawing. Right now I am compelled to sketch characters that are visually striking and have a inner narrative.

Some of these drawings will become large flags in the future, some will remain a one off drawing. I'm currently drawing on the C's, so this is going to be a long project that will morph and change direction as my work develops over the coming months, or maybe years!

Currently these drawings are only availble from Etsy, my online shop, http://www.pamglew.etsy.com

You can join the RSS feed from the shop to see new drawings listed daily.

Who will be lucky number 300

I've loved having my own online shop, and have so far had 298 sales.... so only 2 more to go to the 300 miles stone.

So I've decided that as big thanks who ever makes the lucky 300th sale will get a free tote bag & postcard pack (worth $25). So you can write to your friends on the lush cards and strut around like me on the beach with a nice new bag (or give it to a girlfriend!)

Be lucky number 300 & Check out the shop here

Drawing again

Today I signed all the Red Propeller prints, popped them in the post (well super-wrapped them in bubble, wood, clingfilm and fragile tape) and got down to scanning some new drawings.A recent love of drawing has emerged in me, and I have to say that I have re-found my addiction to sketching. They are still on 'something old' as ever, a French antique dictionary, with some beautiful illustrations and maps, I'm realising that theres something instantly gratifying from sketching.
I'm putting up some new ones on the online shop..
I'm currently gone through all the A's and now on the B's.. this could be a long project........

Free postcards until March 6

Whats the value of something, that is free? To me, free is the best, the value of something that you are given is surely greater than if you just buy it off the shelf.

Why am i rambling like this? Well, to celebrate the opening of my 'Noir' show at Stella Dore- which opens to the public on March 6th, I decided to do something nice, and free.....

I am giving away a FREE postcard pack with every order through my Etsy Shop. (The postcard pack is worth £7.50, just incase you wondered!) The pack is a lush professionally printed affair of 7 cards.

Have a mooch at my shop here, www.pamglew.etsy.com
