Autumn..

My latest doll collage on Etsy.

Me in my own tshirt design- woo hoo

Happy 2008!

Jennifer Davis

Another stunning piece of art found via Dear Ada's blog- by Jennifer Davis. This is just so perfect to me, if only I could create something this divine.

Victor Polson

I discovered these truly awe-inspiring photographs by Victor Polson via Dear Ada's blog (one of my favourites- she has excellent taste, surprisingly similar to mine...).

Victor combines three of my great loves- vegetables, abstract art and photography- fabulous.

Etsy joy

I've had a little boost to my Etsy shop due to a lovely customer buying 3 more dolls!

So I've got renewed enthusiasm, and have just popped up some new gift tags using prints on watercolour paper of my original handpainted teacup and mug designs. I've experiemented on a couple of people with these (Ros being the first) and decided to have a go at selling them as a set of 4.

Ho Ho Ho!

Silly season

Here's my latest doll on Etsy and a very cute Christmas card I saw on Poppy's blog...

Lefty

Had to put this one up because she posed so politely...check out those crazy eyebrows, and Mum thinks mine are out of control!

Selvedge Magazine

Just found another "ohmagod" web-site for anyone who loves textiles; http://www.selvedge.co.uk/ . It's a U.K. magazine that I am seriously considering selling my soul to subscribe to!

They have some truly A-Mazing work to look at, and one artist from Selvedge who's work instantly caught my eye was Sophie Digard who made this scarf, but actually her other work seems even more beautiful. They showcase print and pattern as well as felting, knitting and weaving...just plain beautiful stuff.

More dolls

These girls will temporarily be on Etsy for a few weeks...then on to Scrumptious Productions at Camberwell Markets.

Mod Sparkle girl

Found this gorgeous vintage Mod paper doll in my new favourite book (a vintage paper doll book), and she has now become a member of my paper doll gang. She looks perfect against my vintage wallpaper don't you think? And although her "I'm terribly bored" facial expression scares Ben, I think she's just too cool for school.

I will try to sell her through Scrumptious Productions, but will also do some more for Etsy.

Mantra

My latest tshirt and card design on Red Bubble. Hopefully with this change of government I won't need to recite it to myself quite as often or as desperately...

Colour stripes blog

Just discovered this unreal blog via Bloesem for colour; Kris's colour stripes! (Of course they spell "colour" as "color"- but what can you do?)

New work

I've been invited to contribute some collage work on consignment to Scrumptious Productions who have a stall at Camberwell markets, as well as at the Northcote night markets so I'm trying to get a few more pieces done to deliver to them asap....watch this space!

Happy Birthday Louise!

Have a great day Weezie! Saw this at whipup and thought of you- natty huh?

Lefty

Here she is, our new 6 week old member of the family, "Lefty".

Who knew taking shots of a kitten in focus would be so challenging? Naturally, she is highly intelligent and creative, cute as the dickens and has a slightly quirky personality, so she fits in perfectly.
