Finders Keepers Melbourne and new illustration

The Finders Keepers Markets is coming up very shortly in Melbourne and I am happy to be participating with my own stall. I really do love Melbourne and I love Finders Keepers so its a match made in heaven.

I have also made this new image called Mama and Baby Owl which will be featured on Shivanis online blog as part of  a downloadable calendar at www.myowlbarn.com. I will post details shortly. The illustration will also be available on my online store from this Saturday.

And while I'm here I have to mention these two girls brand Sanoii + Six. I met them again at the Awfully Nice Market at UNSW and have fallen in love with their pretty dresses and blouses, oh... and also their cute retro swimwear... absolute gorgeousness!

September News!

This is an exciting month. Rosie and I have a new story/colouring book called Isabel and her Pirate Ship.

"The story is about a young girl named Isabel who would much rather be exploring the world than sitting in a classroom. She imagines sailing the ferocious seas, soaring high above the clouds and feasting in arabian palaces."





I am also having a market stall this Saturday at UNSW, Kensington called the Awfully Nice Market from 9am to 4pm... I'll be selling my cards, prints and Mitsu the book! Mitsu is also available at my store www.nikkicatalano.bigcartel.com

Next month in October I am having a stall at The Finders Keepers Markets in Melbourne. This is their first ever Melbourne Market and I'm very excited to be involved. Hope you can make it along! xo
