New work uploaded on to The Birds Online exhibition. Pop over here for a closer look.
It is, my friends, 3 weeks until Christmas.
Breathe deep.
Shopping must happen sometime soon – though I have no idea when – and by trying to stick to the’let it happen’ chill-out plan – I am hoping that child-free windows will [...]

It must be difficult being a hairdresser – trying to read people’s expectations and ideas of how they want to be. I LOVE my hairdresser. I really do. She is gorgeous and friendly, has a good memory and is interesting in her own right. But, it has been at least 6 months since I’ve been [...]

Ever noticed how life has a way of evening out the flow….
You make some money – a bill arrives. You should be thankful that you have the money to pay for the bill, but somewhow it just seems wrong that you can’t get that little luxury that was looking so promising. You finish one job, [...]

After a few hours of shuffling and climbing up and down ladders The Birds is up at Hudson.
One of the nicest things about hanging in a space like Hudson is the opportunity to cruise around looking at all the stuff. And they have STUFF…. Astonishing toys from Japan, Funky clothes and rabbits smoking cigarettes. [...]

Thanks so much for all the encouragement (both offline and on). I’ve been convinced that having an online component to The Birds could be a bit of an adventure, so lets go!
Monday morning I’ll be taking works down to Hudson, including the window installation, so while there won’t be an official opening of any kind, [...]

This morning we went here and got us some Chookleaf shoes.
We tried on a few pairs, decided on red (that girl is so like her mother it’s not funny).
Chookleaf are a Melbourne brand producing leather kids shoes that are soft and flexible and just adorable for little feet. They had some stunning leather thongs with [...]

I have my own quiet revolution going on.
It makes life a little bit difficult.
I don’t know what I’m going to do when Christmas comes because the kids have lists ready for Santa – and Santa will have to visit shrines to Chinese manufacturing for most of them.
I also needed new jeans. The past week I [...]

One of the things I hear from online friends when I have an exhibition coming up, is that they wish they lived closer so they could come and see.
I wish you could too.
So I’ve been thinking….
My next exhibition is all small works, easily transportable, even the little birds are light and could be sent on [...]

So much of my time these past few years has been so carefully structured. Time for errands, time for creativity, time for mothering, time for carefully planned unpredictability where we can go with the flow for a set amount of time….
Exotic huh.
So it makes me nervous when people just say ‘oh whenever’.
