Pirate madame. <3 She's doing really well after her surgery. She's the size of a brick outhouse but that can be worked on.. :'D

Happy June! 🩷💜💙💚💛🧡

Oh mammy Hani. She's always been blind in one eye & has adapted incredibly well to it. But it's time to embrace the life of a proper pirate horse soon. Uveitis really freaking sucks & I just want her to be comfortable. Dreading the surgery day now but it'll be for the best. 🥹🩷

Boots! I can't wait for the season to start again. Honey's been wearing Cavallos for years now and I'm super chuffed to have managed to secure a sponsorship deal with them to kit our whole equine crew with some too. ❤️

I wish I knew what was going on developmentally with this kid because GOOD GODS how can anyone survive on such little sleep for two weeks in a row. I would like to pass out.

The old faithful. 💜 Has anyone else ever had to try and get rid of the yellow tint on the front? I'd like to try but not sure if it's possible to make it look a bit more presentable? #gamecube

I'm so chuffed they made easy language versions of the books I've been working on. 🥹 The article,is behind a pay wall but it's nice to see a national paper talk about it: https://www.hs.fi/taide/art-2000011764342.html

Hani's son Tammie for the trekking centre's comic page. <3 #fjordhorse

I made some sketches of all the horses individually for our trekking centre's cartoon page. My new lass, Galdramey. #icelandichorse

I made some sketches of all the horses individually for our trekking centre's cartoon page. Here's my old girl, Hani! #fjordhorse

All our trekking horses here in Shetland. ❤️ 10 Icelandics and 2 Fjords.

Cover art I made for the second volume of Hevoskallion Kuiskaajat. There's a fair bit of art in these books that I don't think I've ever shared anywhere. I really like how this turned out. It wraps around the front & back cover really nicely. #horse #art #bookart

Kiddywinks! I don't have anywhere near enough time these days to work with my two youngsters, but it's mattered very little. They've been so easy to do little things with. Very proud of both bebes. 🐦🪄🌟 #fjordhorse #icelandichorse

Hi #Portfolioday I'm Elli and I illustrate comics and children's books 💚🐀

Jaro and her giant rats. ❤️ Older pages now, still quite like how these turned out. #comics #rats #fantasy

08 Jan 2026 06:29 +0000

These are a bit older sketches I don't think I've shared before of Jaro and her two dads. She's found abandoned in the woods as a baby and raised by two giants. #sketch #comics

Jaro and her pals! Venturing into the land of giants. #comics #art

Koya is for speed. But not for turning. 💜 Lots of hair, not much brain.

11 Nov 2025 00:49 +0000

I love her. You do make this a challenge.

To put a more humorous spin on a horrible situation, Robyn & I did the most expensive plane journey of our lives. Thank you air ambulance. In typical Shetland fashion the wind was abysmal so it's a real blessing they managed to land to get us. She's doing better now. Viral meningitis can bog off.

Between baby & work, trying to find time to back the youngsters. But they're pretty much ready out of the box. I've done so many little short sessions with them over the years it was no bother to hop on for the first time. 🥹 I've had Tammie (Fjord) since he was born & Galdra (Icey) since she was 2.

I feel like they did my boy dirty with the mega design. 🥲

The intern has decided the dulcet tones of crime podcasts are great for sleeping. You're barely 4 weeks old, why do we like this? Mate.

Going into week three and we're doing great. 🌱 Little miss has a crib in my office and she sleeps really well in it while I've been figuring out how to work around her schedule and mine. I'm really chuffed. She's a good little bean. ❤️

Had a family member cheerfully announce the amount of hours (100) they've spent writing an article via the prompt goblin. How do I politely and bluntly tell them they've written fuck all?

02 Oct 2025 19:42 +0000

For goodness sake I feel like I need an emotional break. It simply can't just gently rain down, it gotta be a deluge. I'd prefer the boiler not to be condemned 9 days postpartum. 🫠 Very thankful for the friends and family we have.

"You have that ABC thing" "..Autism, auntie. The word you're looking for is autistic." Affectionately, my family tries, can't fault them there.

Oof what a week. The drunk little hedgehog Robyn joins our team. 🦔 So much has happened and while I'm still feeling poorly, she's perfectly well. She's already visually very easily stimulated little lady. 💚

21 Sep 2025 17:48 +0000

Wheiii we are go. Sort of. Kiddy decided to start a bit over week early. Lots of waiting around but glad to finally be here.
