I’m still here 🧡

Apologies for the lack of posting and interaction on this account, 2022 has proven very very busy on all fronts and unfortunately my own designs have taken a little backseat.

In the midst of the chaos, I’ve still managed to redo my website and update my branding a little bit so hope you like those new hues!

I have a few illustrations projects I’ve been working on for ages so I’m hoping to be posting about them soon again.

Here’s a little variation of my logo which I love and maybe I should use as my main logo actually 🙃

Happy world bee day 🐝 funny facts, I love bees but I’m also terrified of them if they come near me as I’m scared they’ll sting me. Yet, I’ve never been stung ever! Go figure 😂 So grateful for those beautiful creatures who literally are heroes! Without bees, our world would look very different. Go bees 🌼🐝

Here's a sneak peek of the recent website design project I did for the talented Ellie Bobbie Photography ✨

It was so fun working together on her new website - especially with the beautiful content that she creates.

I tried to capture as much as I could of the surf lifestyle, ocean-inspired and beachy fashion essence of Ellie's photographs & videos to then apply it to her website. And we're pretty damn proud of how it's looking!

If you haven't checked out Ellie's fantastic work, definitely have a look at her website - https://www.elliebobbie.com/

And thanks, Ellie, for trusting me and my design skills! 💓 I can't wait to work with you again.

Happy earth day 🌱🌏 May we cherish and protect her and do our best to deliver the best environment for future generations 💚 Feeling grateful I get to enjoy this stunning backyard and strive to do my best to keep it intact ✨

Also hi! I’ve been a little absent here for the past few weeks as I’ve been slammed with work. It’s been more of 👩🏼‍💻 than 🏄🏼‍♀️ haha! But back on track now and will be back illustrating and sharing my designs as usual. I’ve missed doodling random ideas, can’t wait to create again 🌈

Hope you’re having a good week!

I love mood boards. Mood boards are always the best starting point for any branding projects or idea in general. They help you put your vision into a visual file and can help you achieve your end goal. ⠀
⠀
I always start all my branding projects with a mood board and show it to my client to make sure we are on the same page vision-wise. Once final, it's also an amazing reference to come back too if needed. ⠀
⠀
Moodboards don't always have to be in design, though. They can also be for renovating a house, planning a holiday, planning a party... They are basically vision boards! ⠀
⠀
Here are a few tips for creating great mood boards: ⠀
⠀
🔸 Collate heaps of images you feel inspired by and then select the ones that speak to you most. Don't include all the images at the end though. Rather take a few as these will be the ones that will really guide you.
⠀
🔸 Add colours! Take colours from the imagery you've selected, and you'll see how well it fits together.⠀
⠀
🔸 Don't be afraid to add texture. Whether it's sand or thick paper, even if it's just a photograph of it, it'll add a nice element to it. ⠀
⠀
🔸 Take your mood board out of your screen! If you can print the different elements and add anything that you can on hand that could fit with it (textures again, physical objects etc...) ⠀
⠀
🔸 Let the magic happen! Your vision has come to life. ⠀
⠀
Convinced about mood boards yet? Let me know if I can help at all 😊

One of the many jobs I do in my business is also photography! Although I mostly design these days, I love working with small business owners and capturing precious moments of what they do.

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to take pictures of beautiful yoga sequences 🧘🏼‍♀️

With quite uncertain weather that morning, we got lucky with a bit of sunshine and an empty beach.

So happy how those shots turn out, and Marine really makes it look super easy to do yoga 😍

If you need any photographs done for your business, don't hesitate to reach out ✨

And check out in Sydney for her yoga classes too!

Today is a rather gloomy crazy weather day in Sydney ⛈ but it’s also international day of happiness 🙃

So I thought of a little pick me up with some tips from a daisy:

🌼 Brighten someone’s day
🌼 Radiate beauty
🌼 Spread cheer
🌼 Be open
🌼 Find room to grow
🌼 Keep a sunny outlook
🌼 Live with joy!

Have a great weekend everyone 😊

(Ps: this font is called daisy too!)

From the Archives - Introducing Copyette !

Copyette is one of the recent branding projects that I completed at the end of last year, and I couldn't wait to share it with you!

Laura, the amazing copywriter from Copyette, was a pleasure to work with. We definitely connected straight away on the groovy and 70s vibes for her brand. I especially love the colour palette and the logo, of course!

Here's what Laura has to say about the work we did together:

"Working with Marine was a seamless, exciting adventure. Deciding to do my rebrand was a very difficult and overwhelming decision to make, but Marine made the new branding journey straightforward and I was over the moon with what she produced. I'd highly recommend Marine, she's incredibly friendly and very responsive with feedback rounds and any questions I had. Thank you, Marine! I look forward to working with you on future projects."

Keep an eye out for Copyette's new website coming up too. I can't wait to see it!

Wishing you all a happy new year and heaps of happiness for 2021! Hoping this new year will bring more good news into this world 💛

In the meantime, here’s a little fern I’ve drawn on procreate just for fun over the last few days.

I tried to find if a “tips from a fern” quote existed but couldn’t find anything so here’s my take on it!

🌿 Get plenty of natural light

🌿 Take a moment to breathe, close your eyes and imagine being in a tropical forest

🌿 Hydrate yourself, often

🌿 Don’t forget to grow, no matter what stage of life you are at

🌿 Always remember your roots

🌿 Be strong and kind

May 2021 be a fun one 💚
