"We are interested in the world of illustration and animation for about ten years. We would like to move our experience in these fields to the creation of daily objects. Among other things, we proudly do these little handmade flipbooks. They have 60 pages of funny animation! The measures are 9.5x4.5 cm. The cover is printed on Fabriano white ecological artist paper and they're also handmade bound. We hope you enjoy them!"

Anna Cavaliere
Ms. Anna Cavaliere
"I was born and grew up in Italy.
I dreamt about working on stage so, after studying Theatre Disciplines at the University of Bologna and considering my enthusiasm for cutting & sewing, I moved to Milan to improve my skills in theatrical costuming at the Accademia del Teatro alla Scala.
I started making hats as soon as I recognized how lawless they can be.
Basically there are no rules on what you can wear on your head, as long as it makes you feel like someone you like. My hats come from the back row of a cinema in black and white, and go through Alice's looking glass. I try to create many more."

Ms. Yuko Aoyama

"I learned woodcraft for 10 years, but I started handcarving
the rubber board and leather board since the year of 2006.
Under the theme of stamp "to be able to use" for,
I design an i.llustration and the stamp of a practical letter
which are soft and comfortable when I look.
It lets you feel analog time in daily life
by using rubber stamps. In busy every day, I want to
suggest a stamp "to be able to use"
by making you feel happier from its appearance,
and to be able to think how much love and effort to be put by
a designer to handmade each stamp."
10年前から木彫りを習っていましたが、
2006年から消しゴムやゴム版を彫っています。
使えるはんこ】をテーマに、
見るとホンワカするようなイラストや実用的な

そんなひと手間かけたものを楽しく思えるように

DoodleTales
Mr. Ivan San
"Hi there~ this is DoodleTales clear art stamps!
I have been doodling since I was very small, I am self taught & hand-drawn my designs.
Now, after growing a bit (yes I am finally an adult~ or I think so…) I make them into stamps.
My theme is mainly cute, cartoonish, funny objects & animals.
It is truly a joy to be able to bring my imagination to 'life' through drawings, and turning them into rubber stamps so they can make people happy & color their lives.
Nothing is more satisfying than having my creations appear on your art & craft works or whatever one can think of.
Happy Stamping & Peace to the World!"

Eric Luk on Lomography
Mr. Eric Luk
http://www.ericluk.com
"I graduated from graphic design three years ago,
and I bought my first film camera at that time.
I totally fell in love with it and I started to capture
real moments with film cameras.
My topic, Film, allows my world to be real and earnest.
The moment becomes precious because that is unique and serious on films.
I persist in getting prints instead of 1 and 0 as a computer files.
Please notice no photo retouching can be found in photos of mine to take the world artistic.
I have enough in my job and others' creations.
Enjoy every true and unique moment!"

Gorjuss Art Ltd
Ms. Suzanne Woolcott
http://www.gorjuss.co.uk
I was always a big fan of portraits and the scope of what can be captured in a moment,
the stillness of the figure;
the stare looking out at you;
the placement of objects around the subject;
everything is there for a reason, to accentuate the meaning behind the portrait.
I would always rather hang a portrait on my wall than a nice landscape!
"to all my Gorjuss visitors:
I hope in the future, I can visit your country + meet you at an exhibition.
Until then Thank You for letting a little Gorjuss into your life!
Suzanne"

kia
Ms. Kia Hing Fay
http://www.kiahingfay.com
"I learnt carving stamps in a little Japanese village in the mountains.
Each stamp begins life as a simple illustration in my notebook, is handcarved and then reproduced
using a traditional rubber mold.
Underlying everything I make is the Danish concept of hygge.
Scandinavians use the term to describe a space, object or gathering that generates a sense of warmth & homeliness. Hygge is about taking pleasure in ordinary everyday things, like sharing a pot of tea with friends or picking flowers for your kitchen table. I love the idea of viewing daily life as a special kind of artform, and try to reflect this sentiment with each piece I make.
Stamp & be Happy!"

KrisBlues
Ms. Kristiana Parn
http://www.kristianaparn.com
I have developed my current style by experimenting with different
techniques to create the impression of light and air.
Backgrounds are created
by applying colored pigments to damp wood blocks;
and objects are then drawn and painted with sharp outlines
and bright colors to create depth of field.
The natural grain patterns of the wood that I use as my raw material is
the natural world's contribution to the paintings,
and suggest the collaboration between artist and nature.
At its core,
my art is an attempt to both express and foster the human
characteristics I hold most dear:
love, wonder, whimsy, and joy.

LullaLoo
Ms. Kit Chase
http://lullaloo.blogspot.com
"While I have always sketched and drawn, my real work as an illustrator didn't start until after the birth of my first daughter. Listening to the conversations she has with her plastic animals or watching the way she hosts her make-believe tea parties give me glimpses into the magical world of childhood. It is always my aspiration and challenges to capture that wonderful world on paper.
I work primarily in watercolors and ink.
I love the soft, subtle, varying hues of watercolors, and the bold, active lines of ink. They complement the nature of children; the paint echos their innocence and whimsy, and the ink mirrors their energy and strength."
