LissLane Art & Design

Here are a few shots from last weekends event at Scottsdale Mall in North Delta!  These are all pictures of work done by Watershed Artworks Society Artists. We participated in an event organized by Collaborate Delta! in celebration of Arts and Culture week in BC. 

Hello Friends, I know it's been a while but I'm here to tell you that new designs are on the way!  Here's a sneak peek at the process I use to create my designs.  Each design is hand-drawn first and then transferred on to a piece of linoleum, which I hand carve and print on paper to get the very first print!  Next, I transfer that print on to the computer so I can size it perfectly, then I set up the silk screen (which I'll describe one day in another post, as that's quite a lengthy process as well!) so I can hand screen each of the onesies.  As I go along I will take pictures so that one day I can write about the entire process. For now, be warned that penguins, butterflies and maybe a few more little friends will be on their way soon in new springy colours on a short sleeve onesie! Stay tuned for all the progress...

Just wanted to share with you all these pictures from Spruce Collective in Abbotsford! I love their mix of new and vintage pieces in the store and think my little owl friends fit in just perfectly.  If you are in Abbotsford there is no shortage of lovely things to look at in this shop...well worth a visit :) xo

Merry Christmas my friends!  Thanks to all of those who have supported me this year.  I look forward to many new and exciting projects and collaborations in 2013.  Wishing you all the happiest, warmest, coziest season of all :) Melissa, xox

Check out this great artisan market at North Delta Rec Centre this Saturday! enjoy a coffee and a sweet treat as you check out the 30 vendors!  I will be there with baby goods and a BRAND NEW line of baby soaps...a collaboration with myself and my cousin Maria of Pura Vida Soap and Candle!

Well, after an amazing vacation with the family, we are back in town and back to reality!  We spent one beautiful, warm and sunny week in Palm Springs with a day at Disneyland and California Adventure for the kids (and yes, for us grownups too!). We spent most days lounging by the pool, eating, relaxing and watching movies...how glorious.  Our day at the theme parks was jam packed, exhausting and so much fun.  We can't wait to do it again, we just might have to take an extra day to conquer both parks:) While it was amazing to be away, it is always nice to come home, sleep in your own bed and feel that renewed sense of energy towards life, work and all of those unfinished projects!  I was lucky enough to come home to a fresh new box of organic cotton long sleeve onesies, ready to be printed.  Some will arrive at their new home in Vancouver shortly and some will be saved for Deck the Halls which will be happening December 1st at the North Delta Rec Cente...
