I’ve been having SO MUCH FUN with the Springtober prompt list I made with @odd.hand.co !!!!! I’m not doing them daily but I will be doing every single prompt in this cute little sketchbook that conveniently has 30 spreads! That means the whole thing will be full by the end of the month!!

This sketchbook has been a fun challenge because it is a different paper than I usually use. It is over double the thickness, and cold pressed so it has more texture. I’m using more paint than I’m used to because it soaks up so much more!! And it’s also taking longer to dry which has pros and cons - things can get muddy if I rush it!! But if I’m careful I can get some stunning smooth blending 🤤

It’s been amazing seeing all the wonderful art you guys have made and I’ll be checking my tags again soon to see some more!! I’ll be working on this coming weeks prompts every few days and I’ll have more to share soon <333 by @geo_illo

Now that I’ve had some time to rest and recover, here is a little @brisbaneillustrationfair photo dump!!! Now that I’ve done a corner spot I don’t think I’ll ever be able to go back, it’s so fun seeing customers realise it keeps going!! Thank you all for another stunning turn out and for such wonderful chats! Can’t wait for BIF 2027!

Soooo I forgot how ridiculously hard it is to take good photos of art behind glass omg I struggled!! Buuuut I’m so excited to show off these 5 new one off original artworks I’ll have with me this weekend at @brisbaneillustrationfair !! I was hoping to have a few more done, but I can’t rush these special pieces 🌀⭐️ I’m especially in love with the two square ones, and I will be doing more in this style for sure!!!

Sign ups for the sweetest paper daisy edition of my art mail club close tomorrow!! I’ve been a bit frazzled recently and this months mail designs definitely didn’t get the attention they deserve which I’m a little bummed about!! However, I got to see this glorious flower in person last Friday when I went to the Toowoomba carnival of flowers and it was so magical seeing huge garden beds of this stunning flower 🥹 the footage in the beginning of this vid I recorded myself!!

Let this be a sign to maybe sign up so you can join me in the flower patch! by @geo_illo

I actually love revising and redesigning my products when I feel that they didn’t turn out as strong as I had hoped!! I’ve done this a few times with some sticker designs in the past and this whimsy rosette style one is the latest design to get a new and improved upgrade! I’m so much happier with the new design and I hope you guys like it too!!

Ps there will be a full restock of all my stickers from the stars and sparkles drop available this weekend at @brisbaneillustrationfair <333 thank you guys for all the love on those stickers!! They have been some of my fastest sellouts! by @geo_illo

WE MADE A PROMPT LIST Y’ALL! 🌾🪺🪻⭐️

We were chatting about how we were craving more spring representation through the ‘tober’ drawing prompts for us southern hemisphere artists, so your two fav whimsical illustrators have whipped up the cutest prompt list called Springtober! 🍀🫟💐💖🌼🐇

It’s all very chill and low pressure, do as many days or as little days as you want! We wanted this list to be all about whimsy, silliness and the new growth that comes with the season!! 🐝🪁💘

We don’t have time to reshare posts but tag us both (@geo_illo & @odd.hand.co) and use the hashtag #springtober2026 and we will try our best to like/comment and share a few of our faves to our stories when we can! ✏️📚🐁

We are so so excited to see what y’all create!! Happy Springtober! 🌳🖍️✨ See y’all on 1st of October for Day 1! 🦋🍇🌞 by @geo_illo

I used my gifted @xtool_au M2 to custom cut a wood panel to paint into a gorgeous pansy!! You guys, I say it a lot but this might be the coolest thing I’ve made!!!! I’ve wanted to experiment with this concept since I got my xTool, and I can’t believe how easy it was!!! This came out perfectly, I have no notes, and I’m stunned by how PRETTY it is!!! I will definitely be exploring this a lot more to bring you guys some gorgeous wall hangings soon 🤭👀

It’s time to take a look at this months art mail rewards! The flower I pulled for this month was paper daisies!! I love paper daisies so much they are such a unique and tactile flower and are soooo fun to paint! We have a bit of a warmer colour palette for this one too which is a little different!! Remember you can join any time before the end of this month to have this cute art mail posted to you <333 by @geo_illo

Been using my @carandache neocolour 2s for a while now so I thought it would be fun to look back and see how my understanding of this medium has developed!! Also it’s fun to rate art hehe ❇️ also the last piece you see in this carousel is my artwork for @dangerousfemales upcoming project with Australian Artist Collective!!! Viewing exhibition will be at the end of October and hopefully I’ll be able to share details soon!! by @geo_illo

Been spending more time in my sketchbook again lately and this trend was too cute not to give it a try (it’s not as smooth as I’d like but oh well!!) by @geo_illo
