20.01.2022 Logo design for my sissie’s side hustle @cravethegrazewollongong Us Dinh girls have grown up in a household where food was a big part of our family upbringing; it’s about our culture, identity, community, love and bringing people together. Something that we’ll always be grateful for is how cooking and food brought our family closer, its enabled us to share something special made from the heart with friends and loved ones. Food and cooking has been the core of who we are ...and I’m so proud of my sissy Mel for taking it even further to share it with our wider community. She’s a great cook, who can do it all! Crave The Graze offers grazing boxes catered to breakfast, antipasto, dessert and custom occasions.

20.01.2022 Live Más / Hand-painted Taco Bell’s slogan at their new store in Albion Park Rail; one of my most favourite wall projects to date! The lettering I designed for this mural is my most natural style, so it’s always that little bit sweeter to paint your lettering at a large scale which started on a scrap piece of paper and ended on a wall. Swipe to see the comparison of the original brush-lettering to the finished product. Thanks again Taco Bell for having me on b...oard for this super fun project - - - - - #themarker #themarkerbygilliandinh #tacobellaustralia #tacobell #livemas #wallmural #muralist #muralart #letteringmural #typographyart #handlettering #typographymural #letteringartist #handpaintedmurals See more

18.01.2022 On this day 5 years ago The Marker was born. It’s beyond wild to think it’s already been 5 very testing years, although at the same time it feels like I’ve been doing this my whole life. I’m so proud of all I’ve achieved and grown to be in such a short time. All of which wouldn’t even be possible without the support, love, guidance and motivation of my boyfriend Trent, my late-Daddyo, Mumma, Nonna, sissies Mel Steph Alison, all my amazing fam and friends. It was hard to have ...only a tiny celebration due to Covid, but I had a fun time with my close homies who helped me party hard. I’m so sorry to those who I couldn’t invite yesterday. Please know that I am forever grateful for all my family and friends (you know who you are!!), you all mean so much to me and the growth of my business, much more than words could ever express. Don’t worry, I had enough drinks to make up for all of you who I would’ve loved to invite. And last, but not least a huge thanks to all my clients and followers. Because every single sale, share, ‘like’ and ounce of support helps me live out my passion every day. I always knew creating as a career would be for me, but I never knew it would be like this. It’s been very bloody hard, and it still is, though I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Thanks for joining me on this wild ride, and an even bigger thanks to those sticking it out with me for 5 long years (with hopefully many more to come). La la love you all, G x - - - #themarker #themarkerbygilliandinh #themarkerturns5 @ Wollongong, New South Wales See more

08.01.2022 I know a lot of people are hurting right now, and I’m sorry. It’s so heartbreaking to know that this kind of pain and struggle happens every fucking day. Just please always remember that you are not alone, ever. Whether it’s your own suffering, your presence, your heart, people’s concern for you, your purpose or your place. You are never alone. Check in on loved ones, ask questions, have deeper conversations, call and not just text. I know it can be tough with busy lives, and... we can’t be everywhere all at once. But make the conscious effort to ask your loved ones how they really are and questions beyond that. Call a friend, catch up with someone or take time out for YOU! Look after yourself, your loved ones and just be there. Be there, to be here. You are loved, you will get through it, and you are not alone. If anyone ever wants to chat, my inbox is freely open, as is my heart. If you find you’re in a place of struggle, please reach out to me, loved ones, Lifeline (13 11 14) or beyond blue (1300 22 4636). Just know, you're not alone and things will get better. See more

06.01.2022 Before Covid was a thing, workshops were in full swing. Due to the ever-changing restrictions, I decided to put workshops on hold for 2020. For the past two years I’ve held sold-out Christmas workshops, bringing you an epic grazing spread, Mariah Carey vibes and festive lettering. And although unfortunately this year will see no Christmas lettering workshops... I have something a little different in store for you all! So keep your eyes peeled; tomorrow the festive month offic...ially begins and The Marker has you covered to pimp your Christmas packaging #wrapcityb*tch - - - Photography: @teelstudios #themarker #themarkerbygilliandinh #handlettering #letteringartist #christmaslettering #learnlettering See more

04.01.2022 , . Today is ‘R U OK?’ Day. It's a national day of action to remind ourselves that every day is the day to ask, "are you ok?". Every day we must check in with loved ones as well as ourselves, especially with 2020 being one of the most mentally, emotionally and physically testing years, I feel this reminder is more important than ever. This year @ruokday’s focus is on the message that 'there's more to say after R U OK?'. Let's help one ...another to encourage action and create more meaningful conversations beyond the first step of asking the question, 'R U OK?'. Today I will be releasing 5 different quote prints, written and hand-lettered by me, with 50% of the sales during the entire month of September being donated to the 'R U OK' initiative. My hope is to help further encourage life-changing conversations and create deeper connections in the hopes of supporting others and helping prevent heartbreaking losses to suicide. These prints are created for you. For the purpose of giving yourself an important daily reminder, as well as prints you can gift to someone you feel may need and appreciate it. We can all do our bit to help. Print release today: stay tuned on our stories and online store. All prints available in black and white, A4 & A3 size.
