My 50 Illustrations Depicting Everyday Life As A Woman And A Mother With A Hint Of Sarcasm
Hello, my name is Giselle Dekel, I was born in Vienna, Austria, and raised in Antwerp, Belgium. I studied arts in high school and later pursued a degree in Textile Design at Shenkar College (Israel). My early life goal was to become a textile designer as patterns were my big passion.
After receiving my college degree I tried everything to find a job in that field. But years passed and nothing happened so I finally gave up. This unfortunately is the story for many art/design students.
While working regular non-creative jobs I fell into a minor depression... Having no creative outlet (other than coming up with kid-friendly meals) really took a toll on me. Eventually, my artistic spark returned, and after much experimenting I started illustrating.

Laundry Day
the same, I react to the laundry chore as if I had to go to the wash house in the middle of winter, even though I am lucky enough to have a washing machine at home. Stupid me.

Bubble Bath In The Clouds
Never imagined a bubble bath while looking at clouds, but I've been studying and imagining their potential for being canopy beds, or just perfectly cosy, snuggly beds, since I was 6.
Caffeine Emergency
My parents had a gag gift like this that said "In case of emergency, break glass" and there was a cigarette in the glass case. This was in the late 70s/ early 80s when smoking was still acceptable.
