We're winding down now for the year - we hope you are too. Have a fantastic Yuletime one and all and the very best from all of us at Smiling Wolf. See you in 2012!

It's our birthday! 11 today. Well done crew.

Phase 1 now launched for Bido Lito's new website. All pink and happy - just like Liverpool's most comprehensive music magazine is in the flesh... Yeah we know a magazine can't have flesh... Pedants.

Here's a little glimpse of work in progress on our latest collaboration with BCA Landscape for urban-realm works in Fleetwood, Lancashire. Leon and Jason are busy creating illustrational motifs that will be cast in bronze and laid in a beautiful Terrazzo surface. So now you know.

Our studio doors will open for one day only on Friday 7 October from 4 - 7pm as part of the Liverpool Design Festival. <br/><br/>Come in and chat over a Friday drink and music, see the latest studio projects in progress, take away badges, posters....and creative inspiration. See you soon!

Smiling Wolf and Liverpool Biennial would like to extend their deepest gratitude and warmest regards to our fabulous intern Dawn Wood, as her internship sadly comes to an end.

"I've been in Smiling Wolf for three months now and enjoyed every bit of it! Everyone is friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed; I'll miss being in the studio. I'd like to thank everyone at Smiling Wolf and Liverpool Biennial for giving me the chance to gain more experience. I feel I've learned a lot which I can take forward with me in the future. Thanks again. Speak soon."
