Rebecca Bradley’s Munny Doll for Vinylmore 3

Rebecca writes:

“Hi Lilla; I made my first munny doll for this show, a local phenomenon – Vinylmore 3. Always an event. My munny is a pink garden munny- so many munnys have a dark edge to them- mine is deliberately light and decorative. It was an accidental collaboration with my 3 year old son Ben.”

New Work by John Coulter: Las Vegas Sun

John writes:

“Hi Lilla,
An illustration I did for the Las Vegas Sun made it on the Newseum’s Top Ten:
Today’s Top Ten Front Pages
Thursday, March 25, 2010

We went all over the world searching for the most visually striking front pages, and what do you know, we found 10.
With splashes of coordinated color and intriguing graphics and images, today’s top picks will surely be picked up and read all over.

Each of the eight contributing artists created their own set of four “family” members, and all of them will be made into cards. They will be made available for sale with all proceeds going to charity. Here is my family:”
