babyology has always been good to draw! pilgrim (click over and say hi) and i’m happy to share with you their fabulous bugaboo donkey charity auction.

by auctioning off the very first Aernout Dijkstra-Hellinga signed bugaboo donkey pram in the world, babyology are raising funds for (Bugaboo)RED a charity that has already provided vital medication to over 70,000 pregnant women. with more than one thousand children born HIV-positive every day, bugaboo is committed to reduce this figure to zero in 2015 and realizing an AIDS free generation.

for ALL the info, visit babyology and the auction is live now until 21 September 2011. good luck to you and to babyology on this excellent cause!

i’ve been sick in bed for almost a week. its some kind of nasty virus. there was a fever and chills and a lot of sleeping and i basically felt like someone came and drained all the ‘pilgrim’ outta me. thankfully a few days in bed and a quick spin through the internet invigorated me. oh and i just had some pizza which really seemed to help!

so if you’re feeling a bit shabby too, why not check out these groovy things and see if it makes you feel better too!

so, please don’t yell at me, but i’m going to have to skip 7by7 again this week because the weather’s turned here and i’m a busy working beaver. i’m quite sure no one wants to see 3 months of photos of my desk, so while i’ll do intermittent 7by7′s, for now its no longer a weekly thing. instead i’ll mix it up a bit and maybe find a new groove, but for today i thought i’d share a few cool links i’ve come across recently.

i don’t ride a bike, but if i did it would have to look like this remixed ‘art bike’

my fascination with california still hasn’t withered, and this old map from the 20s (from the book the american film industry by tino balio) has only inspired me to explore more. it was used by the studios for location shoots and the diversity of california’s landscape was what helped it to become the epicentre for movie makers.

yesterday grain edit blew. my. mind. i’ve seen peter petrake by miguel calatayud before but this book is incredible. its pretty much how i need my environment to look. so if someone could make that happen, i’d be very grateful.

i’m not a wedding dress girl, but this dress makes me rethink weddings, doilies, and colored underskirts. phew. too much thinking! i need a lie down.

two of my favourite words: retro fonts. yes please.

take a look at the charming vintage illustration work of naiad and walter einsel
