<p><img src="http://ecopatterns.com/cms/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/photo-300x225.jpg" alt="" title="photo" width="200" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-649" /> If you frequent this site or read our updates you may have noticed a shift in product direction. We get many questions from customers and friends about it and I think its a good time to be more public about our intentions. When I started this business over two years ago, my intent was to raise awareness for endangered animal conservation through my art. Somewhere along the way, it became pretty evident that I was being categorized as a t-shirt artist. No issues with that, however, I definitely didn&#8217;t want the art to take a back-seat to this. Fast forward to today and coupled with the rising costs of cotton and restrictions on selling shirts in popular artist vending venues has urged the shift in focus to the artwork.This does not mean the t-shirts are done. We still have quite a few in stock &#8211; but they will only be available in our <a href="/shop/"><strong>online store</strong></a> (unless we note otherwise). All it means is that the focus of our product releases will be on the artwork. We will produce more shirts in the future, but in a more special and limited capacity.</p>
<p>Of course that also means that there must be some type of reorganization to our website in order. With that said, I am happy to annouce some exciting changes going forward. On July 1st, we will be showing off a re-organized shopping catalogue in our online store as well as rearranging our growing library of endangered animal facts and information. My hubby has been hard at work on all of this and I am sure it will be fantastic as we continue through the summer and beyond. In the meantime, feel free to drop by <a href="http://malathip.etsy.com" target="link"><strong>my Etsy shop</strong></a> for most of my latest pieces. Thank you all for your support and love.

<p><img src="http://ecopatterns.com/cms/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/dhole.jpg" alt="" title="dhole" width="205" height="175" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-642" />Quick &#8211; when I say dhole, what do you think of? Most people have no idea what a dhole even is. It is probably because there are so little of them left in the world. Growing up in Thailand, I was somewhat aware of their existence but after doing some research, I was saddened to hear about their plight. This inspired me to raise awareness about the dhole with my newest painting &#8211; &#8220;Daydreaming.&#8221; This dreamy pair will be available soon in note cards, art prints and mounted art prints. Look for them soon</p>
<p>They are known for their extraordinary vocals &#8211; mostly for alerting pack-mates on dangerous conditions. Dholes are South Asiatic Wild Dogs that live in organized, extended family packs with a strict social hierarchy. Not the typical canine breed, as their range is severely fragmented and is falling under critical concerns. It is estimated that only 2500 Dholes are left in the wild worldwide. In the Wildlife Act of 1972, these little reddish-brown pups were officially declared as endangered due to rampant habitat destruction.</p>

Yes, New York City is officially in paradise mode this week as people are shedding their winter gear and grumpy scowls. But do you know what that means for us? No, not just baseball season (but don&#8217;t tell my husband that) &#8211; but also outdoor market season! It has been almost eighteen weeks since we&#8217;ve last hit the pavement displaying our art and apparel. And now we&#8217;d like to formally announce that we will be making our jubilant return to the Union Square Market this coming <strong>Saturday</strong>!</p>
<p>Come join us at the <strong>Union Square Artists Market</strong> and have first dibs on our exciting full lineup of notecards and prints! We will have a bunch of shirts on hand as well as we know you guys want something new and hip to wear for the Spring season. Definitely sign up to my <a href="http://twitter.com/malathip" target="link"><strong>twitter</strong></a> account or <a href="http://facebook.com/ecopatterns" target="link"><strong>facebook fan page</strong></a> for daily updates on market days as we know how unpredictable those clouds can be. We&#8217;ll see you guys, downtown.</p>

<p><img src="/images/linping.jpg" align="left">Last November, my husband and I were visiting family in Bangkok. During our stay there, we spent most of our early morning breakfast time watching one of the most talked about channels in Thailand &#8211; the Lin Ping Panda Live Cam. Best reality TV show ever!  It&#8217;s basically a live feed of a baby giant panda&#8217;s day-to-day life in a Chiang Mai Zoo with her mother. My husband and I were absolutely drawn to this adorable, playful baby based on our love for pandas.  Hey I have a bunch of baby stuffed pandas at home. <img src='http://ecopatterns.com/cms/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Anyhow, the little panda inspired me to redesign and reimagine the <a href="/about/our-patterns/baby-panda/">panda pattern I posted last year</a> to include a second little panda as they play and frolic about their young, uncomplicated lives. As we all know, these beautiful creatures are endangered, and I feel it is our duty (as panda lovers) to spread the word and hope of the animal that is the symbol of preservation, as well as <a href="http://wwf.org" target="link">WWF&#8217;s</a> logo mascot.</p>
<p>That being said, we&#8217;d love to debut our newest addition to our lineup, the <a href="/products-page/art/original-art-print-playful-pandas/">Playful Pandas</a> available in <a href="/products-page/art/original-art-print-playful-pandas/">art prints</a> and <a href="/products-page/art/note-card-playful-pandas/">note cards</a>. Let me know what you think.</p>
