No Anchovies Andy



Hi everybody, I am LouLou and just joined the Clogwork gang. Since 2004 I work as a freelance illustrator and recently I teamed up with Tummie and started the 'LouLou & Tummie' empire.

Together we illustrate for all things possible, create papercraft characters, plush dolls and handbags (that last part is mainly Tummies speciality)

For those who would like to see more of my work, please visit:
my (old) website: www.echslectir.com
our (soon to be finished) website: www.loulouandtummie.com
my flickr page: www.flickr.com/echslectir

So.. I'll try to post some fun stuff here every now and then.
Enjoy!

---
The papercraft character shown above is my submission for the 'Urban Paper' book by Matt Hawkins wich will be published in 2009.
I do a lot of papercrafting, commisioned and non commisioned. You can find some of my free downloadable papercraft creations here: Lou's Shop

Dreamy sunrise


Stylized 2D/3D illustration of a sunrise behind hills as a background for the children's spread of Wildlife magazine.

I've just opened a Flickr group called 'Illustratie' for Dutch and Flemish illustrators. Please feel free to join the group, even if you aren't from the Netherlands or Belgium. We do not discriminate: if you've got an illustration that is too good to refuse, be our guest to post it. But beware, we are picky, so please only post work you're really proud of, thanks in advance. I hope to see you at the 'Illustratie' group.

Just a cute little thingy. Sorry for not posting much here lately.

Virus migration


Daily cartoon for the Dutch Nu.nl news website, about a threatening influenza epidemic that approached the Netherlands.

Left virus: "Hey man, I thought you were going to the Netherlands?!"

Right virus: "Yeah ... didn't make it beyond the immigration service!"

The Dutch immigration service has become notorious for their intolerance.

Giant rodent


Daily cartoon for the Dutch Nu.nl news website, about the discovered fossil of a gigantic rodent.

The wink is that those giant rodents must have become extinct because acorns were much too small for them.

6IXTYNINER9

I know I'm not the only pencil that is asked by too many too often to do something for free. The other day once again I decided to stop saying 'Yes" and start saying 'No' to non-paying assignments. Time to earn!
The very next day I was asked by that great rock & roll-duo 'Sixtyniners' ( consisting of artists Michiel 'Ugly Mean Chickie' Hoving - www.hoving.com/sixtyniners/highway.html - and Claudia Hek - www.claudiahek.net )to make them a CD-cover. The only problem: money was tight. Could we maybe swap art?
We did, as you can see. Decisions schmecisions!
