I’ve begun pottery making for the fall/winter holiday season! I even made a fancy little spreadsheet for what I would like to accomplish and you better believe a ton o’ mugs are on the list.

Today was spent trimming mugs and attaching handles. This will be the first batch of many!
For the second picture I did not have to lay out the handles like that… but also i kind of did. 🤷‍♀️

I’ve been getting ready to begin a nonfiction book project and I always like to start with a project mood board. I’ll gather inspiration from my own work other artists, photos and whatever else. Naturally, I was reminded of this beast of a book that came out last September.

This week has been filled with gardening, field walks and packing up all of your online shop orders and getting them sent out (thank you so much!)

I harvested our garlic a couple days ago since it’s been quite wet lately and I was getting worried about them going bad, so *maybe* they could’ve used a bit time but I’m still excited! We also harvested onion last week so now they are stinking up our basement while they hang in our basement to cure.

We’ve also had so many raspberries and I’ve been out every evening with a step ladder getting a bowlful.

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.

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!

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!

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.

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 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 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.

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.

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 ✨🧡✨

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.

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 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 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 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 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 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.

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

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 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!

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!

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✨🌈

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.

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.

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!
