I have a little shop

And it is open! http://katrincoetzer.bigcartel.com
If you're interested in buying a print, I hope you find something you like. I've added a handful of things so if you'd like a custom print you're welcome to contact me. Most of all I'm excited about the paper my work is printed on. Nice and heavy 310gsm Hahnemühle, 100% cotton.

Lion Around

Ah the title is cheesy I know but I couldn't have it any other way. This painting was my very girly take on this story.  

(take a look at the drama of Rubens, Brueghel, Tanner)

In related news, we've moved to our new sunny home which is officially 'pet-friendly'. Time to get a feline :)

Where It's At

I don't think this magazine/book thing received much publicity when it came out earlier this year and it's a shame because it's so well considered and intelligently put together. Richard Hart edited & compiled it and his team at Disturbance designed it and it shows. Read the interview with RH here.

I contributed some editorial bits and a poster that can be torn out designed after my favourite south africanism just now...

This is how the cover poster unfolds

Clever.

From my temporary bush studio

Last Wednesday I saw galloping giraffes, a very happy thing to witness. This week I'm back in the city and still dreaming of those long legs and necks.
