Loving the work of Rex Winston Walford at the moment ...
Last week I started a course at the local art school in mixed media, hopefully it will prove inspiring. The first couple of lessons have been great, and I've persevered with work that I would normally give up on. Grabbed this shot today of the paint covered sink in the classroom. Love it. ...
I first fell in love with magnolia trees working on a gardening magazine years ago. Now each spring I look forward to them and get out and photograph them. ...
Its the Festival of the Winds down at Bondi Beach today, hundreds of colourful kites flying. So we had to head down there, Scampi knowing a lot about wind. Perfect weather for it too! ...
This weekend our little man turns two! We took him to one of his favourite spots, Cafe Bones in Leichhardt. We were mugged right away by a Rhodesian Ridgeback tall enough to just whip the food right off the tables. Scampi retaliated and stole a puppychino. Some where unimpressed with this behaviour... More of Scampis new friends... And it turns out that the...
We didn't have much luck in our first visit to Centennial Park in Sydney a few months back. But last week we went back and the weather was perfect - so we went again this weekend! ...
A weekend trip to the Bondi Markets is a lot more fun with a camera! ...
Well the tap in the bathroom has finally had it and we need to move the bathroom renovation forward. Here are a few ideas Ive been collecting for a while. ...
This weekend we did our annual trip to the Archibald exhibition at the Art Gallery of NSW. I actually always think the best part is the Wynne prize, and two of my favourites from last where finalists again. Joshua Yeldham and Neil Frazer. Plus I really liked the photo realistic painting of a graffiti covered back street by Luke Barker. Which reminds me...
Finally a holiday! The easter and anzac break is here and Im getting stuck into some artwork - plus finishing off all those little DIY jobs around the house. Here is the latests print added to our etsy shop. I did this as a gift card a couple of years ago, don't know why it didn't occur to me to turn it into...
Raining all weekend perfect for a little DIY. The bedroom is all painted, one more coat on some woodwork needed then some new carpet. Scampie of course was a huge help. He is now covered in paint. ...
I love this quote from Audrey Hepburn, I've been meaning to do a little design with it for ages. "I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that...
This week I was feeling a little inspired by the work of Frida Kahlo. Ive been looking at a lots of Mexican wedding ideas for the 'i do' it yourself site, and she just kept popping up! So I put together a little homage to Frida, a digital mixed media collage using one of her quotes "Feet, why do I need them if I...
Source: lorilynn15.tumblr.com via Alyssa on Pinterest Every morning at around 4am Im woken up by the same thing, a big fat lump of a french bulldog plonking himself on my legs. Which would be bad enough, but then he proceeds to lick and chew his paws. Apparently this is a frenchie habit, looks like it is :) ...
Some cute new works added to our etsy shop this week, miniature toy town effects of Venice. There are SO many more photos to go through so Im sure there will be more to come. ...
