Hello my darlings. Hope your weekend was nice & relaxing and that the new week has kicked off well. Today I'd like to talk art.. Nursery art.
A few years ago when I was pregnant with Oscar there was hardly anything out there that suited my aesthetic, and I really struggled to find pieces for his nursery. In the end this is what brought me to start painting again for real, and this as you (may) know also set the start of my own children's art & design business.

Times have certainly changed since then and the market place of today is flooded by talented artists who target families and young ones. A wonderful & convenient hub for quality children's artwork is Sydney based 'Kindergallery'.
This gallery-shop operates both online and by private appointment to help art savvy littlies (& their parents) choose the perfect visual adornment for their walls. They carry a number of wonderful artists such as Meredith Gaston, Aliette, Shinzi Katoh, and Swedish Sandra Isaksson. The latter of course is especially close to my heart..
Sandra (who also blogs - HERE) operates both as an independent artist, and as part of a Scandi-British collaboration under art & decor label 'ISAK'. I love the way she introduces herself on her website..

Sandra's work is playful & neat with tangible flair of Scandinavian mid-centrury retro. Her pieces are designed to work on their own or in clusters, and they are as fun for the nursery as they are for your older kids.
So imagine my delight when Kate Holcombe, the manager of Kindergallery contacted me to offer not one but two A2 'ABC Character' posters by ISAK as a give-away for my Australian/NZ friends.
That said, if you are an international blogger who want to enter this give-away on behalf of or for an Australian/NZ friend, you may. As long as the shipping address falls withing this region. Just read on to find out how..
Entries are open until midnight on Sunday 26th July (AEST) and the two winners will be announced shortly after.

Wow what amazing art. I wish they had such great art available when my boy was little. This is such a brilliant prize.
Now don't give it to me because I don't have any little ones to give it to. But I did make sure all our members on the Decorating Forum knew about it:).
charlotta, I have already won a wonderful give-away from you, so please don't throw my name in the hat...just wanted to say how wonderful those pieces are, especially the kindergallery pieces. I think those would appeal to us grown-ups, too! love to you! donna

Hi Charlotta I have been introduced to you by Linda @ OEKE and what a bonus to find a giveaway in addition to all the other delights in your space.
I am now happily following and have popped your giveaway on my blog.
This would make the perfect addition to the brand new bedroom of my 3yo niece, so my fingers are well and truly crossed.
Happy day!

I love that 'What would spiderman do?' print for the nursery. Just cracked me right up. All the artwork is fabulous. I didn't know about kinder gallery but I'm sure glad I do now. I don't think nursery art is just for the nursery at all (thank goodness as my youngest just turned three and I don't want to have to give it up!) x

Hello lovely! Another great give away... Perfect for stylish little ones :) I'm pretty sure I owe you an email my dear, but in the interim I hope winter in Sydney is treating you well. The sun is shining here in Melbs so were heading out to take advantage whilst we can xxx Cath
