Roots to Fruits

I love this little package that I received from Portland, U.S.A today from Apak Studio ttp://apakstudio.com/apak/ 
I'm starting ideas for a new collection of screen prints and paintings.

Sunday Mornings

We love dropped scones on a Sunday morning!  Enjoy the sunshine and the light evenings, the leaves are out and the birds are in the air.  Fresh new colour is spreading across our garden.

Cut and Paste

I think the bear has fallen in love!!!

Mr Shrew Discovers Spring

Having fun in the forest with Mr Shrew. 

Nine Ladies

We took some time out this weekend to explore the simplicity, the hills and the clean fresh air in Birchover, Derbyshire.  We revisited the nine ladies stone circle and enjoyed the sun shining down on us.  Happy Weekend!

Collection of Books

Books are beautiful products,  true works of art within themselves.

Birthday Book

I have illustrated a label for the Birthday Book Project at West Bridgford Infants School.  Its a beautiful idea, each child, parent, teacher chooses a book to donate to the school on their birthday.  I am already excited about donating 'The Great Paper Caper' by Oliver Jeffers.

Smiley Shopping

Hey, It feels like spring is in the air today. 
When Spring is here, the whole world smiles.....As I look from my studio window a blanket of green is starting to appear.  I am getting a shop together on Etsy http://www.etsy.com/shop/KayvanBellen?ref=seller_info 
Keep your eyes peeled as more things get added!!
