Sophia Mary Mac

Ahoy me'arties! I am a Brisbane based Las. Currently a web designer in a little Advertising agency around the corner. But someday I hope to be an illustrator. Every little thing on here (unless otherwise told) is my own!

I Used to Skate Once

And secondly…

The only way I feel I can express this is through an embarrassing happy dance!

I am over-over-joyed tp announce that I will be in ‘I Used to Skate Once’ (#8) this year!

This has been a long term goal for me, and I defiantly thought that I wouldn’t have a chance for at least another few years, but here I am, happy dancing!

The opening will be at The Zoo (Fortitude Valley, Brisbane) on the 21st June - On a thursday night! And if you are facebook, here is the event.

Mine will be the deck with the illustration that looks like my illustration on it, see you there (hopefully :)?)!!

1st Exhibition!

I am absolutely over the moon to tell you all that I have my first exhibition coming up in a few weeks! -It is not ‘my’ exhibition, I will just be an illustrator exhibited in it! The lovely chap who has asked me, requested a whole 6 pieces! How exiting!

So I will keep ya’ll updated on date/times and some sneaky little peaks at the stuff I will submit until then!

Stamps.

These are some beautiful little stamps created by Valerie Jar!

I have been thinking lately of developing some description of stamp-something for my signature-for my print pieces. I think it could be pretty funky and consistant and hopefully be useable across different mediums!

I’ll let you know how I go! smm

I had a bad day.

The worst. the worst ever. But not ever, ever. But bad. Pretty bad. 

Bad day.

Post-Melbourne-Depression

I’m back from Melbourne!

There is no place like home! But I sure do miss the no-work life full of brunch, illustration and friends. 

I had the best time with my lovely boyfriend! We stayed in the cutest little joint in Fotzroy ans spent most days on Brunswick street. I would defiantly consider living there for a period of time one day!

I’m so lucky I went with somebody who loves taking photos too! Which means, lots of photos to come!

Love of typography

Illustration subject. Bugs and stuff

I have started the illustration section of my favourite subject at uni and I am so exited! I am almost bustling over with ideas! I need to create posters to represent the identity of a bug-type society! At first I thought it was silly to put a theme on this subject, but now I am loving it! I am currently working on an editorial piece of a farmer holding snails to his ears, looking very similar to Princesse Leia. How did I manage to incorporate StarWars into a bug related theme, I dont know! But I am pretty happy with myself for doing it!

Images to come soon!
