Bear With Me

I started drawing this bear several months ago and it lay forgotten between other loose drawings of animals until I found it again. I guess it needed it's winter nap. Spring sun is here and spring flowers has popped up everywhere and what better time to see a newly awaken brown bear? 

Bear with me, it takes time to see progress.

This spring I'm carrying a dreamy hare on my shoulder, and you could too!

Into The Wild

Spring is here and i'm feeling the spirit! I'm so inspired to plant and grow new big plants. A friend gave me a little baby sprout the other day and it has been standing in water for a week now. Waiting for those tiny little roots to grow before planting in soil.

Aaaaaand so I illustrated some plants and decided to put them in the Green Isle Studio shoppe!

I just couldn't decide on only one color so I made them in three different ones, have a look here:

Green Isle Studio, our logo

We're officially open for business! Nancy and I've been working together on various different projects for a couple of years now. It's only recently we decided to have a brand name, Green Isle Studio.  Green Islet is our given last name on English. It's very common in Sweden with names coming from nature, like for example "meadow-twig" or "Sea-flower". Very pretty, right? 

We wanted to have an organic touch to our logo as we feel it's something we stand for and also hints to in our name. We made some decisions of what colors, fonts and feelings we wanted to have with sketches. After that it all pretty much came flowing down onto paper. Nancy has such a lovely watercolor touch to her paintings and I really wanted to incoperate that into our logo. I feel this logo represent us and I'm really excited to show you our new green place! 

We will keep on adding new limited art, originals, hand printed goods and much more. We use Instagram for work in progress, previews and updates. And of course we do have our own 

Green Isle Studio Blog over at tumblr. 

We are have a special opening discount the week through on posters and prints. You don't need no code, you will automatically receive the 20% off when purchasing any paper goods. 

Thanks for all the love and support we received so far!

Green Isle Studio

Here's a little preview of something me and my sister are working on. You see, we've been thinking about doing something together for ages more than just exhibitions. One of the first things will be an online shop with new drawings, limited editions, originals, printed textiles and products. 

We're planning on open very soon with special opening prices so stay tuned!

Below, the beginning of our logo sketched out by my sister Nancy Grönholm. 

And if you're wondering about the name for those outside of Sweden -

Green Isle is our last name translated into English.

We're on Instagram: GreenIsleStudio

Have a great weekend!
