When Mel Baxter asked if I’d like to be part of the launch exhibition for Curvy 2010 at Nine Lives I was really, really, really honoured. It’s been a rough few months and the opportunity to hang my work besides the lovely likes of Courtney Brims, Lilly Piri, Beci Orpin and Bec Winnel was so…

Drawing on everyone’s walls.
After all my talk about taking time to do personal work, I’ve not really even had the time to do that. I have done a lot of sketching and doodling throughout the last few months, but in recent weeks my brain has told me to shut down and focus on myself and drawing. Some pretty…
Low brow, low committment.
Every time I drive over the Story Bridge I feel warm and fuzzy. There’s been no time to finish drawings for me :( Except when I get new inks and I spend a bunch of time playing with them! The card I made for my sister’s birthday… I’ve been infected with the hipster isosceles and…
It’s November and I’m on time!
November is here and I’m already planning for my 30th birthday (in December)! We should be having hot and humid sunny days but recently all we’ve had is storms so the mood for this month’s desktop is a bit thundery. I’m also continuing my fishnet obsession. It’s all I want to draw! Get your resolution…
Moleskine doodling
Some drawings from my Moleskine which has been a little bit neglected in the past month or so.
Badass fance.
I don’t know who Whistles are but this is a very nice invitation that they sent out and gives me all kinds of ideas. Cut out people were one of my favourite things when I was a kid, and now I wonder why I don’t do more of them. I haven’t done much paper cutting…
Minaudières: because it’s a nice looking word.
I’m always in awe of artists who can master pencils the way Marco Mazzoni does. I don’t know much about this artist but I was really affected by this piece when I scrolled down Google Reader and found it posted on Phantasmaphile. This is a page from the world’s most mysterious document, the “Voynich manuscript“.…
Don’t dream it’s Oct-over (groan)
If I sneak in and deposit these desktops right here, no one will have any idea that they are five days late…. right?! Unfortunately, no. I know you’ve been waiting and I’m so sorry for the delay. My sister got married and I’ve been doing all manner of things but now October can officially begin!…
Some typographic things and a bug.
When Alex Louisa let me know that my Lovely postcard was used in this month’s issue of Home Beautiful magazine I was pretty surprised. I’m glad the stylist liked it enough to include it (though it’d be cool if it was attributed, just saying!) This is what I do on Friday nights. I’m not a…
If you want me I’m painting bows on my nails out in the treehouse.
I love Tumblr for a lot of reasons, but mostly because it introduces me to artists I haven’t come across before. This photograph is the work of Annelise Kretschmer, a German portrait photographer. I love it for the fancy neckpiece/ dress and the expression of the subject because most of us smile for a photograph,…
