Hi there!
The Moodpie is an Illustration project based in Meanjin, Brisbane, Australia. It follows the adventures of a little magpie navigating mental health, careers and self discovery.
The Moodpie hatched in April 2020 as a response to the emerging global lockdowns. From there, she has found a steady footing in regular comics and illustrations, murals as well as original artworks, ceramics, and mixed media works.
The Moodpie was created by artist Kate Hallen and is grounded in self-reflection and observations of the world around her.
The Moodpie project is always evolving and growing. If you are interested in collaborating or have an idea, please feel free to reach out using the contact form at the bottom of the page.
Gallery The Moodpie project ranges from comics, reflections & illustrations that explores cycling, the arts, mental health, the environment, LGBTQIA+ and the everyday human/moodpie experience. Below is a selection of works.
The Moodie previously posted regularly across platforms such as instagram and Facebook. Since the introduction of AI LLM training on Meta and Xitter, these images have since been removed. Please see the handles below.

Trying to find a new digital home for Moodie has been difficult, and I have honestly felt overwhelmed since the advent of AI and LLM training on Meta/Xitter platforms. Ilife has been busy, but I still love Moodie. I aim to post semi regularly on Substack. Please see handle below:
