I don’t mean to brag, but I’m so happy to be part of the Once Upon show! Thanks to the combined efforts of Renee and Angela, the show pulls together 38 of Australia’s most amazing emerging artists and themes of fairy tales and folk law (one of my areas of interest!) Once Upon is opening…

Friday Fance: People of Fance
I’m not a huge celebrity watcher, and I don’t require gossip in order to get on with my day but there are a few celebrities I love to look at because they pretty much typify “The Fance” for me. The following People of Fance have been nominated by me and some of my Twitter followers…
Show us your doodle. Your lunchdoodle!
Some smart, funny and good looking people (who will no doubt quibble over how I’ve linked them!) came up with the idea of lunch doodles over Twitter, and they’d been showing each other the funny drawings they’d done while eating lunch (or working, but don’t tell their bosses that!) I thought it was such a…
It’s all about meme
I’m not sure I’ve ever done a survey meme here before, but I’m in the mood for some light, brainless content after sourcing all those florals over the last few days! This one word survey is from Pip, who got it from Hazelnuts, who got it from PetalPlum, who got it from Bits of Sunshine,…
Summer florals
Left to right: City Chic Miami floral dress, Dream Diva floral sundress, City Chic rose garden dress. I’m pretty excited about summer florals and can’t wait to get my hands on some, but alas there isn’t much in the budget right now for pretty frocks. Allow me to share some of my favourite things with…
The Fat Dinosty is where awesome happens
I’m so glad ess_jay posted this on twitter. INCREDIBLE. It makes me wish I had turned my 8 really hard steps video into a narrative, but I’m the sort of person who helps people illustrate stories not write them! Anyhoo, go watch!
Urban Grind and Mental Health Day
Today I put some of my work up at Urban Grind in New Farm. Urban Grind are wonderful about supporting local artists and connecting with the community, and I’m really appreciative that Morgan let me put my work up! Today is World Mental Health Day, and the theme this year is: Making mental health a…
Fanciful Friday: Friday Fance
In my head I’ve been calling these posts “Friday Fance”, and in fact I’ve been using “fance” as a word a whole bunch more lately. I hope my readers know what I’m talking about when I bust out the fance. Someone call Oxford, we have a new word! Today I want to talk to you…
Doodle on yourself
People are starting to believe that I am a trend whisperer. By people, I mean my friend Tee, who tweeted about doodles and fake tattoos at the Gaultier, Chanel and Rodarte shows. I can’t even remember what I said about doodling on people… but it might have been a flip comment in response to Drew…
Delicious savoury muffins!
I wanted to bake some savoury muffins for my husband to take to work and for general snacking noms, because I think I have just about hit my strawberry limit (Queensland seems to be having some kind of strawberry explosion at the moment). This recipe is super flexible: you can swap veges in and out…
