I had such a nice time camping, selling wares and celebrating the reopening of the Berg Lake Trail at Mt. Robson Provincial Park this past weekend!

It was very nostalgic to spend time in the area since Ben spent 3 years as a Park Ranger out at Mt. Robson (several years ago eeeeek)!
In that time I got very familiar with the area especially morning walks on the Berg Lake Trail. It was also so inspiring for my art practice and helped me develop my children’s books “The Not-So Great Outdoors” and “Outside Art” and was the place of a lot of sketching. It’s safe to say Mt. Robson has a place in my heart forever!

Thank you to my sweetie, @hawkinsb2 for helping me and pal, Rachelle and @yourbcparks for working so hard on organizing this event!

I will be out of studio this week on vacation but I am still planning on doing an online shop update July 13 9am PT.

#handmadewithlove #pottersofinstagram #handmadeceramics #makermovement #canadianmaker #bcartist #bcceramicist #bcillustrator #canadianillustrator #mtrobsonprovincialpark #handmademugs

I unloaded my glaze firing this morning and everything looks really good and nothing broke (yay!)

The taller cups were meant to fit a silicone travel lid but the design was off so now they are just really cute tumblers!

#handmadewithlove #pottersofinstagram #handmadeceramics #makermovement #canadianmaker #bcartist #bcceramicist #bcillustrator #canadianillustrator #handmademugs

I’ve been super busy the last few weeks working on a fresh batch of pottery.

I snapped these pictures yesterday morning, since then these have have been waxed, glazed and are currently going through their glaze firing. It will be ready to be unloaded Wednesday morning, fingers crossed the kiln gods have been kind🤞👀

These pieces will be available at Mt. Robson Provincial park this coming Saturday, June 28 from 10am-2pm.

My online shop update will follow but won’t be until July 13th since I have some vacation plans!

#handmadewithlove #pottersofinstagram #handmadeceramics #makermovement #canadianmaker #bcartist #bcceramicist #bcillustrator #canadianillustrator #handmademugs

A brief moment of forcing Heidi to cuddle while there is a squirrel nearby. 👁️ 👁️

I just got these vinyl stickers in from @jukeboxprint and I’m especially loving the kiss cut quilt sheet!

I’v been thinking of doing a shop update within the next couple of weeks, which will include these stickers and some originals from my Faepril challenge. Maybe prints- which ones would you like to see?

I will also be doing an in-person market at Mt. Robson Provincial Park on June 28th so have been working on pottery for that with a future July online shop update.

A friend noticed that, Tiny, Perfect Things was featured in the most beautiful children’s room in the Summer 2025 Journal @magnolia (haaaaay @joannagaines 👋)

Tiny, Perfect Things is written by @mhclarkwrites illustrated by myself, @madelinekloepper and published by @compendiumliveinspired

FAEPRIL 30 - MAY POLE

Faepril has officially come to a close after a magical art filled month and ends with a celebratory beginning to May ✨✨✨

Thanks so much to all that followed along and joined in, even if it was just for a prompt or two!

Just did a pen sketch for this one but may try to revisit it at another time.

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #drawing #moleskine #sketchbook #ink

FAEPRIL 29 - PROCESSION

A quick sketch of a wee parade for today’s prompt. ✨

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #sketchbook #moleskine

FAEPRIL 27 & 28 - ADORN & CROWN

I mentioned in my stories that I’m out of town visiting family so I’m busy visiting and enjoying time away ✨💛

I’m hoping to revisit with more realized pieces when I get back into the studio but in the meantime here’s a couple of pages from my sketchbook.

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #moleskine #sketchbook

FAEPRIL 26 - TRICKSTER

I was supposed to draw a trickster but instead I drew a completely regular old lady selling flowers. 👀

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #foxillustration

FAEPRIL 25 - BOUQUET

The next level of putting flowers in your hair, is having a full on bouquet updo 💅

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist

FAEPRIL 24 - REFLECT

Late on this one and it’s not my fave but it’s here and done now!

Now onto today’s prompt: bouquet!

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist

FAEPRIL 23 - BURROW

A bear enjoying a cup of tea in his den.

I’ve been working on trying to ignore scale and have more playful compositions. I find I often set arbitrary rules for myself when I really don’t need to! So many of my favourite artists throw perspective by the wayside and I think I need to channel that more!

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #burrow #bear

FAEPRIL 22 - STUMP

Happy Earth Day!
What better way to celebrate than with a wise gnome meditating on a chicken of the woods mushroom 🙌

Swipe to see the beautifully fluorescent mushrooms from our trip to Bella Coola last September. When I was thinking of the prompt, stump- that one specifically kept coming to mind!

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #mushrooms #chickenofthewoods

FAEPRIL 21 - HARE

Went down the medieval rabbit hole today and came up with this funny guy.

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #hare #medievalrabbits

FAEPRIL 20 - NURTURE

A little gal tending to her garden.

I tried to plan a lot less with the foliage for this one. I had a rough composition and a sketch of the gal worked out and the rest was more intuition based. Some things got overworked in my opinion but overall it turned out ok.
Downside was when I was taking off the tape, it caught on the upper right and tore the top layer of paper so I had to crop in a bit in photoshop to compensate.

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #childrensillustrations

FAEPRIL 19 - HEN

Who is this diva?✨💅
A silly one for today’s prompt.
I had her originally sketched without a hat but felt like it wasn’t magic enough. A friend suggested a princess cone hat which was obviously THE move.

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #chicken #hen

FAEPRIL 18 - LILY

A simple lily of the valley for today, such a pretty little flower. I planted some in my garden last year so I’m still hoping they’ll come up!

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianillustration #canadianart #bcartist #springflowers

FAEPRIL 17 - FEATHER

For today’s I was inspired by Fraktur style folk art so wanted to do some fancy feathered friends.
While I was working on the sketch I looked at my beautiful vase by @forgetmenotsbykim and realized it just needed to be included in this one.

Kim @forgetmenotsbykim is the best, you should support and follow her work ✨🧡✨

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #fraktur #folkart #canadianartist #canadianillustrator

FAEPRIL 16 - OFFERING

Took me a while to come up with an idea for today’s prompt but I got there (who comes up with these anyways 😉)

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #bcartist #canadianartist #canadianillustrator

FAEPRIL 15 - BREW

A couple lil guys brewing a cup of tea ✨

…And with that we are halfway through Faepril!
If you’ve been wanting to participate I definitely encourage you to jump in tomorrow and not worry about catching up!
Also, you’re always welcome to jump in on any prompts that catch your eye 👀

#faepril #faeprilchallenge #whimsicalart #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #teatime #cuppa

FAEPRIL 14 - WEAVE

Some flowering vines loosely woven together ✨

A trickier prompt for today, it took me a while to settle on how to interpret this one but I’m pleased with how it came out!

#faepril #faeprilchallenge #bcartist #bcillustrator #canadianartist #magicalillustration #floralillustration

FAEPRIL 13 - NEST

I was thinking about different kinds of nests which led to cup nests which led to a tea cup nest which is really freakin’ cute.

#faepril #faeprilchallenge #bcartist #bcillustrator #cozyillustration #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #canadianartist #canadianillustrator

FAEPRIL 12 - BORROWED

I was originally working on a different more detailed illustration for today but I wasn’t completely happy with it so I decided to just simplify to finish the prompt. I liked where the other one was going so I’ll return it another day ✨

Anyways, like some of the other artists for this prompt I too, was inspired by the little folk in The Borrowers and Arrietty so here is a wee gal with a bottle cap hat for today.

#faepril #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #bcartist #bcillustrator #childrensillustrator #faeprilchallenge #canadianartist

FAEPRIL 11 - FRITTALARIA

A day late, but here it is!
I had done a version of this last night but absolutely hated it so decided to come back to it today.

Frittalaria are such magical flowers, I couldn’t resist having them as one of the prompts!
Thank you @tokenfloral for introducing me to these checkered beauties!

#faepril #faeprilchallenge #frittalaria #springflowers #bcartist #bcillustrator #canadianillustrator #humanmade

FAEPRIL 10 - TOAD

I was busy all day today so I didn’t get around to today’s prompt until this evening. I generally prefer to work during the morning and afternoon so it’s a little more simple but it’s still cute. Hard to go wrong with a toad.✨

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #toad

FAEPRIL 9 - BOOT

Gee, it’s good to be back home.

It honestly seems like a crime, but I don’t think I’ve ever drawn a boot house before.. like ever!
Anyways I thought it would be super sweet to have a weary hiking elf returning to his hiking boot home.

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #hiking #hikingillustration #forestelf #canadianillustration #bcartist #bcillustrator

FAEPRIL 8 - FLUTTER

Yay, we’re over a week into Faepril! I’m so happy to see new and familiar faces joining in and making artwork using my prompts!

It’s been a bit tricky to keep track of so big apologies if I miss any of your posted artwork!

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #butterflies #faerie #faeries #fairies #bcartist #bcillustrator #canadianillustrator

FAEPRIL 7 - FERAL

A feral little wolf girl stalking her pray for today’s drawing!
It was a bit harder to get this one done today so I’m proud I managed!

#faepril #magicalillustration #whimsicalart #feralkids #wolves #bcartist #bcillustrator #canadianartisr #canadianillustrator

FAEPRIL 6 - HOBBIT

I chose the prompt hobbit for April 6th because it’s Ben’s birthday today! He’s been a lifelong fan of Tolkien and especially the hobbit, so I thought it would be fun way to celebrate!

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #thehobbit #hobbit #theshire #tolkien #tolkienart

FAEPRIL 5 - GOOSE

At dawn, we ride!

A silly illustration for today. In my mind geese are the unhinged dragons of the bird world.
Also loosely inspired by the mood of many angry Canadians right now.

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #bcartist #canadianillustration #canadianartist #canadagoose

FAEPRIL 4 - TULIP

Almost late, but I made it.
I was busy during the day so had to finish it up this evening.

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #bcartist #tulips

FAEPRIL 3 - ILLUMINATE

Here is a celestial being for today’s prompt 💫

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #faeprililluminate #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #bcartist #elf #celestial

FAEPRIL 2 - SPROUT

The happiest little sprout and he’s wearing boots because plants don’t like wet feet.

I haven’t planted any seedlings yet but I am thinking I should probably do it soon!
What is your favourite thing to grow?

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #faeprilsprout #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #bcartist #gardening #seedlings #springtime

FAEPRIL 1 - FOOL

Pierrot inspired elves ushering in the start of spring with cherry blossoms! ✨🌸

My parents keep telling me how the cherry blossoms are just about to bloom down in Langley. Growing up in the lower mainland cherry blossoms were one of my harbingers of spring. However, here in Prince George we are still in “fool’s spring” and have a long ways to go before trees bud out and eventually blossom!

#faepril #faeprildrawingchallenge #faeprilfool #illustration #whimsical #whimsicalillustration #magicalillustration #bcartist #cherryblossomseason

Hello magical folks! ✨ 🌈
Now that spring is on its way I would be honoured to have you join me in my first ever daily drawing challenge for the month of April which I have (cleverly) dubbed,
✨✨ FAEPRIL ✨✨  Lately I have been struggling to find my way back into a regular art practice so I’ve been exploring different ways to get back into a creative routine and have fun! I’ve realised I never seem to tire of drawing little faeries and elves so thought this would be the perfect springboard.

How To Participate:
 ⭐️ Save this post (I will also provide a link in my bio for a high resolution image for reposting!)

⭐️ Starting April 1st, use the daily prompts corresponding with each date to create whimsical illustrations. Faeries, elves, gnomes and other magical beings are encouraged!

⭐️ Use the hashtag #faepril and tag me @madelinekloepper so I can share and admire your creations!

I would also love for you to share this challenge with your friends!

#aprildrawingchallenge #drawingchallenge #magicalillustration #faeries #faepril

I’m putting together a drawing challenge for myself and maybe for you too for the month of April!

I’ve never done one before but I think it’ll be fun and cute which is exactly what I need right now!

More details soon, but here is a sweet Heidi for now✨

Thinking about springtime and flowers lately so I made this springy illustration of this little elf going about her day✨🌈

#canadianillustration #canadianillustrator #bcartist #elf #whimsicalillustration #magical #springflowers

I am an absolute sucker for drawing mountain goats, they are such otherworldly beasts with their fluffy white fur and horns!

When I was researching illustrations to go along with North Cascades National Park it really reminded me of so many of the places I’ve been able to hike and recreate on here in Canada. I am so angry that the frump administration does not recognize the non-economic value of these places (and yes, I recognize the Canadian government also struggles with this too)

Protected land need to remain protected for the sake of the environment and our future hikers.

One of the *many* illustrations from 50 True Tales from Our Great National Parks is written by @stephaniepearson, illustrated by myself, @madelinekloepper
& published September 2024 with @quartokids @wideeyededitions

Oof. It’s a tough time to live on earth and I’ve really been feeling it lately.

I have however found a lot of solace in quilting. I’ve been finding the methodical approach exactly what I’ve been needing these days.
Pressing, cutting, pressing, sewing, pressing, sewing… it makes so much more sense than most other things.

I’ve been working on this little table runner which just needs the binding to be hand stitched.
Last week I made some throw pillow cushions that I’m proud of… I’ve also made potholders that didn’t turn out but I still learned from regardless.

It’s been difficult to sit down and draw and paint but I think I am needing to make a concerted effort to show up to my drawing practice and get out of my slump.

This gal absolutely loves a good homestead. 🫶

#princegeorge

It’s a chilly -20°c out there today so I took the time and made my first Ohio Star!
(Second pic is my first sawtooth star from a couple nights ago and first time doing flying geese)

I’m proud of me! These are taking me a long time to make but it’s been really fun!

A cozy detail from a small commission project I did this past fall. (And some other recent photos)

It’s been hard to not feel insignificant in the wake of recent events. I’ve been at a loss of what to post and if I should.
But aside from sharing occasional things in my stories, what have I been up to this month? Honestly, I’ve been trying to lean into rest during this time of year and prioritize different forms of self care:
- I caught up on some loose ends in my neglected admin and bookkeeping.
- Getting outside for walks or skis in the snow (or ice) and enjoying the ever so slightly longer days.
- Ben is the owner of a shiny new mountain sled so he took me out into the mountains last week to brap around the alpine.
- We bought a sewing machine secondhand a while ago but hadn’t taken it out until this month. I’ve been learning to sew and last week I took a two day beginner’s quilting class where I made a quilted table runner.
- Lots of snuggles with Heidi
- Sleeping in.
- Working with my naturopath to improve my energy levels.

What did you do for self care in January?

I’ve just updated my online shop and have been so torn as to whether to do it or wait until shipping hellscape stabilizes. 
Canada Post, which is usually the most cost effective shipping option for small businesses has been on strike since November 15th.
I wholeheartedly support the strike and am in favour of living wages and improved conditions for its postal workers, however, it has lead to sky rocketing prices and gouging with all other courier services. (Not to mention the USPS not accepting Canadian parcels for the time being due to volume)
I have also made the decision to make it easier on myself and just ship to Canada and the USA for the time being.

I know certain *corporations* offer free shipping and no delays but PLEASE shop local where you can, small businesses are needing it more than ever this year and holiday season.
Honestly, I am in favour of you spending your money locally and in your community as opposed to on my online shop.

If you are local to Prince George and the surrounding area I do offer free local pickup @dandylinespg here in Prince George.

You can also request to order my children’s books through your local indie book seller!!

Anyways you can check out the update on:
madelinekloepper.com

Lots of love and thank you so much for your support!
Madeline
