Animated Father’s Day Ecard – On Wilderness Shore

The inspiration for our newest father day ecard, On Wilderness Shore, for Father’s Day came after a recent trip to the coast with my boys and Tim that included spotting an eagle up close taking off in majestic flight and many other little adventures. My oldest son told me afterward that two of his big wishes had been fulfilled on the trip and the idea for this card was born.

Let yourself go on a journey in a canoe across great wild scenery, spotting wildlife, fishing, and finally settling down for the night in a magical spot on earth – from the comfort of your computer 🙂 I hope the watercolor paintings in this card come close to giving you the feeling I get when I am out in the wild. The card is perfect for Father’s Day, greetings to all your outdoor enthusiasts, Birthday wishes (especially for men), and many other occasions. It also includes a little bit about how I went about painting the artwork in this card.

Cats are Jerks! New Mother’s Day Animated Ecard

Just kidding. Here at Ojolie we love cats, not least because they provide so much inspiration. Besides cats, we also love flowers – as you may have noticed 😀 Our newest release, Flower Arranging, is a short and funny card, featuring our hand-painted watercolor flowers and whimsical animation. It was inspired by a phenomenon most of us are well aware of: cats love to knock or push items off tables. They also have a special fondness for flowers. That would make a beautiful flower arrangement irresistible to any feline of course.

Mother’s Day Ecard – Celebrating Life & Mom

I was out for a walk recently and came across the most wonderful scented wild roses growing on my path. I brought a few home for my desk in the studio.

Over the coming week, the roses filled the whole studio with their scent as they opened their delicate layers in all their glory. Eventually, of course, they faded. The transient bloom of flowers reminded me that this year has made us acutely aware of how precious our time with our loved ones really is.

As I started working on our newest Happy Mother’s Day Ecard, the rose petals took on completely imaginary shapes and morphed into flowers that probably do not exist in nature. A bouquet started taking shape. It is my way of creating a way for you to send a virtual hug to those amazing women in your life, that deserve to be celebrated every day of the year.

Mother Day Ecard – Celebrating Everyday Heroes!

This year I wanted our Mother’s Day ecard, Everyday Heroes,​ to be a reflection of the extraordinary times we are all living through. Mother’s Day started as a celebration for all women, and our newest animated card aspires to carry on this tradition. Mothers are everyday heroes – at home and in our community these women play an invaluable role and too often get too little recognition. Send this animated ecard to let the amazing women in your life and community know that you are so proud of them – and grateful for all they do.

Spring is here! New eCard for Easter & Spring

Just in time for Easter, we have added a new card to our site titled Easter Basket to our collection of Easter Ecards.

In February I broke my elbow, and this meant spending a good amount of time planning new cards and work, instead of actually painting and drawing. Inspiration is usually a process of just sitting down and working on it, but the time while waiting for my elbow to heal meant really letting the process be in the mind’s eye.

Sometimes the inspiration for a new card comes from the story that springs to mind while listening to a piece of music. Grieg’s butterfly composition, which this new card is set to, really does conjure up the flutterings of butterflies. From there the bunnies and the anticipation of once again being able to enjoy time outdoors were not a far leap 🙂
