I do realize today is the last day of January ๐ But calling it the January update nonetheless as I designed everything this month and it feels like this month. Now available at bekdesign.ca they will be available in stores this week Iโll post on my story when Iโve stocked them. I wanted to capture a snowy winter scene, the reference was from a hike I did this month in Lynn Valley. Like everyone Iโve been obsessed with Heated Rivalry but I wanted to put a Bek spin on fan art for it. Iโve also been considering restarting my Patreon account. You would receive this print and sticker in the mail Iโm also thinking of monthly charms. Let me know what you think! #shopupdate #heatedrivalry #artistshop #artdrop #stickershop
Moth Bookends I created at @makerlabs for our DIY white elephant exchange. Wood and mirror acrylic with a black shimmer paint ๐ I want to play with this idea more. Maybe try a transparent yellow with a light behind or a rose gold mirror. #lasercutting #productdesign #bookish #bookends
Seasonโs Greetings! I hope everyone in Canada is having a wonderful Christmas Day ๐ฅฐ Iโm boarding my flight back home in a few minutes. Wanted to share with you a client Christmas card Iโm really proud of. I was so excited this year when CMHA Edmonton approached me this year. Supporting mental health has always been a pillar of Bek Design. I originally started it while recovering from a breakdown when I was illustrating the words I needed to hear and thought other people needed too. Theyโve been a dream client and Iโm looking forward to continuing to work with them in the new year. If youโre interested Iโll share more of the annual report work I did for them too. Wishing you the happiest of holidays! Make sure to take quiet moments for yourself and reach out to your support network if you start feeling low. -Love, Bek ๐ฅฐ #holidaycard #christmasdesign #noaiart #christmascard #edmonton #mentalhealthawareness #christmasart
Merry Aussie Christmas ๐๐๐ This trip has truly been a once in a lifetime experience and Iโm so grateful to have spent it with the Laan family ๐ฅฐ When I became best friends with @jennlaan over 20 years ago Rach and I were lovingly adopted into her family. Weโve seen each other through such low times through the years and itโs so special now to celebrate the highs together. So proud of @jess.laan for graduating from the University of Melbourne! Canโt wait for all our continued adventures. I hope you are also spending the holidays with your loved ones; friends, family or furry ๐ฅฐ
