Finally on Society6

I finally got myself a Society6 account! You can check out my shop here. So far I mostly have the Maneki Neko Meme series up but I'll be adding more over the next few weeks. You can also get Maneki Neko greetings cards on my Etsy Shop.

Here are a few of the items you can get on my new Society6 shop:

Maneki Neko Greetings

Remember the Maneki Neko cat illustrations I did a while back? Well I finally got them made into greetings cards! And I'm soo happy with how they turned out! They're based on the popular internet cats; Keyboard Cat, Lil Bub, Grumpy Cat and Nyan Cat.

You can now buy these on my Etsy Shop.

Maneki Neki-NO - Grumpy cat and his buddies

Today you're finally getting to see where my obsession with internet cat memes and why I was doing so many Cat Meme Treasuries. 

A few months ago a customer introduced me to Maneki Nekos (Lucky cats) which lead to me having the idea to combine this with my fav famous cats; Grumpy Cat, Keyboard Cat, Nyan Cat and Lil Bub.

It's been a while since I've been able to work on a project for myself, and I've loved doing these cuties. I'm thinking of making them in to stickers and greetings cards, what do you think?

Etsy Finds - Maneki Neko (Lucky Cats)

After painting two pairs of Maneki Neko shoes recently (you can see them here and here) I got searching Etsy for fun Lucky Cat finds. Here's what I found:

Maneki Neko & Polka Dot Heels!

You might remember this custom order that I posted a couple of days ago. It inspired me enough to paint some heels I had lying around. I'm now a little obsessed with Maneki Nekos and contemplating doing some digital illustrations of them when I get the time.

You can see some work in progress shots here.

Superga x House of Holland Maneki Neko shoes!

A few weeks ago a customer asked me to paint some of her Superga x House of Holland sneakers which had got discoloured in the wash. I absolutely love the original pair of shoes, so I hope I did them justice! These were kind of tricky to paint on because of all the seams on the shoes. But I'm still tempted to get some for myself to paint.

The owner of these shoes loves Maneki Nekos (Lucky Cats), which I think is such an awesome theme for a pair of shoes (I even loved it so much I painted my own pair of Maneki Neko heels).

Desk of the Day - 21/06/13 - Polka dots & Puss Cats

I've had these polka dot heels lying around now for a couple of months. I bought them intending to paint them for myself but never got around to it (this is the case with 50% of my shoes!). I've had some pretty awesome themed orders recently, one being a Maneki-neko theme which got me so inspired. I knew immediately these shoes needed to be covered in Maneki-nekos.

I'm adding some finishing touches to them today then getting on with some make up themed heels for a customer!

Meanwhile in the background I'm watching Made in Chelsea, does anyone have any good tv show suggestions? I'm going to have to rip my ears off if I hear someone saying "tbh" or "totes" one more time in a none ironic way!
