If you follow me on twitter or tumblr you might know that one of my photos was submitted to a hateful and fatphobic (transphobic, ageist, etc etc) facebook group: “There’s a weight limit on leggings & skinny jeans.” I have posted photos of myself on the internet for years, and have copped a huge variety…
Friday Fance: Fancify
I’ve seen quite a few triangular shaped rings recently, but this is the most fancy. The turquoise enamel (I’m assuming it’s enamel!) on brass is perfect! The only concerning feature is that flag… knowing me, I would take my own eye out with it. This is strictly for an afternoon of lounging about with friends…
It’s nice to share
Rayna of Radical Cross Stitch made this kick arse video for the No Clean Feed effort. It worked well enough to force Kevin Rudd into putting off the legislation for a couple of years. Horahhh! Two Whole Cakes/ Fatcast A new podcast by Lesley of fatshionista.com and Marianne of therotund.com in which these two amazing…
All things seem possible in May
May is such a lovely month here in Brisbane. The air gets a little crisper but the sun is still strong and it’s perfect weather to read a book in the sun. Because many of you are from the other side of the world, I am mindful not to make my designs too southern hemisphere…
Your input required and appreciated!
Kelly Chapman, producer extraordinaire of Jucy, has again asked me to ask you for your valuable opinion on the movie’s poster and trailer. I’m very excited to see all the promo material pulling together because it means the release looms nearer and nearer – I think a lot of you will enjoy this film! To…
Disband
I have been completely remiss in letting you know about the new Leeloo exhibition, Disband! Considering that I am a part of it, and I drew the poster illustration, I ought to smack my own wrist. Here’s a bit of info on the show – if you’re in Sydney you must go check it out!…
Friday Fance: Prodigal Fance
I don’t think anyone noticed the gaping hole left by the Fance this past two Fridays, but I’m bringing it back. Just for you, my adoring readership who didn’t really miss it at all. Who am I kidding? I just like collecting images of fancy stuff. It’s all for me! This gorgeous photo is an…

Past & Present: Paisley on Design*Sponge If you’re interested in the history of the paisley motif and issues of cultural appropriation, you should…
Getting handsy
If you’ve been a long time reader (hello, I love you!) you’d know that I have a “repetitive strain injury” in my right arm from working too hard at being a graphic artist. I have had a lot of therapy in the last few years with no real result because I’m very stubborn (no wait,…
Pls sir, I want some moiré
An art exhibition opening on a Sunday? Goodness, my brain just divided by zero! I wore what I’d usually wear to a night time event, something a bit crazy and fance. The Departure exhibition was at a council gallery just out of Brisbane, and I think that’s why the event was held at such an…
