My friend Jen and her friend Sandra have created the most enchanting world and named it IMOK. Anchored in Sydney (Jen) and Melbourne (Sandra), Jen and Sandra amass ludicrous phone bills discussing ideas and spend hours hunched over their sketch pads. Both are self taught artists who are following their dream and making a difference.
The philosophy behind their work is simple; their world says "I'm Ok if you are". I love this idea. Jen & Sandra explain it further...
“It is on our canvases where it all makes sense. That’s where our characters get to hang out, embracing and celebrating their uniqueness – where it’s ok to be different. It’s about positive thinking, not denying your dark side, speaking your mind and believing in yourself and your dreams. Our creative goal is to express those ideas and aspirations in our work, and to have them reflected out in the world.”
IMOK 2005
Jen & Sandra have incredible imaginations and are lucky enough to also be stunningly talented illustrators. You can almost see their little creatures dancing about in their dreams.
