I didn’t think I’d get February’s desktop done in time for the first of the month because I’ve been flat out, but I reaffirmed my commitment to Sparkle Motion and am happy to present a new wallpaper! Choose one of the below three links to grab the resolution that suits your machine. 1024 x 768…

Australia Day
I was going to draw this much better, but we’ve been down the coast in a hospital because my grandfather is ailing and isn’t expected to live for much longer. At any rate, I hope you had a good day today if you had the day off. I also wanted to mention that I’m not…
I’ve been taking photos
Lately I have been trying to take photos to record all the lovely little details I see. I only have a little point and shoot Canon IXUS, but maybe one day I’ll have a nice DSLR and a sassy lens so I can take lots of bokeh photos! I’ll never lay claim to being a…
New year, new business cards!
I had been wanting some new cards ever since I got married last year, because nothing is more unprofessional than a graphic designer scribbling out their old surname on their business card and hastily scrawling their new surname! I decided to use my gocco because my style lends itself much more to “DIY chic” than…
Where I work
I organised my room today after getting the bookcase mum lovingly donated! I present to you a shoddy panorama, stitched in all of about 2 seconds. You get the idea. You can do the creepy thing and view it big if you go to the flickr page and hit “All sizes”. We rent so everything…
NSFW if you have a stationery fetish!

Currently I have scraps of paper floating around the room, pencils stuck in magazines, gocco prints in the filing cabinet and drawing paper sitting on my sewing machine…. and it’s…
The giftmas that won’t end
Tonight I’m giving the gifts we bought in Melbourne to my family, as well as Mum’s birthday present because she was born on this fabulous day. I am pretty sure none of them will check my blog today, so I’m going to post photos! I didn’t do quite so much elaborate drawing on these because…

Do you have a happiness buddy?
This ad from headspace.org.au is one of the best commercials I’ve seen on television for depression. Usually the ad people rely on stock video of anguished looking people with a hand to the forehead shot in a blue cast, which could just as easily be used for headache tablet commercials. This animation totally nails what…
Desktop, free to a good home
Because it’s a new year and stuff I thought I’d make a desktop for every month of 2009. I thought about the kinds of things I like on a desktop and realised that I had never really seen what I wanted, so I made it! I like to keep my desktop relatively clear, but I…
