Journal
A writer as well as an artist, here you will find a collection of my musings on a range of topics that are relevant to the website and my creative journey. Sectioned into categories including Events I have and perhaps will attend, as well as some interesting How To articles. What I create and the motivation behind the creating of the things I make and a General section.
The photo I have used as the lead into the Journal page I snapped on my way home from a market in Adelaide one weekend. This is about 15 ks from home. It was so breath taking I just had to stop and photograph it. As well as a good sunrise, I do love a good rainbow. Nature is the most amazing artist afterall.
Art & Creating
Today I want to talk about cards. I have just created a couple of new lines, I absolutely love coming up with new designs that hopefully spread a little colour and joy.
What I’m up to next - Recycling and making use of Nature’s art to create one’s own art, is a wonderful way to honour Nature herself and all she brings to us.
I take so many photos of my work as I go, little sections of larger works that flow onto my Instagram page. Perfect bits of flowing colour and form, it seemed such a waste not to use them.
These lost arts are so enriching to the soul. A mesmerizing and joyful experience I have totally fallen in love with.
What’s New & Coming Soon
Sometimes you can ‘feel’ something calling you. It is an interestingly soft vibration that feels like it is somewhere close by, kind of like a whisper. Almost tangible, but not quite.
I have been painting with a difference lately. I am a little bit excited about my new line coming very soon. I have been working on a clothing line which I have called my "Mum, you need to sell your pants" range.
General Topics
Facebook and it’s issues. Is it really worth it?
I don’t think I can recall a year going by quite as fast as 2023. It felt like we had Christmas 2022 and then suddenly we had arrived at the very same point in no time at all?? That twelve months was the quickest I believe I have ever experienced.
2022 The year that flew in review! What a year it has been, so so busy and the time literally flew on by with me being very mobile out in the community. What did I learn in 2022?
Events
Website stock versus market stock. What is the difference between what I sell online and what I carry around with me when I attend the weekend markets?
It is my intention to ‘put myself out there’ at some of the fantastic expos and markets we have here in South Australia. Event One coming up soon - Body, Mind & Psychic Expo.
How To
The Pendulum is perhaps one of the simplest and most effective methods of divination existing today. ‘Pendulum Power’ allows you to easily tap into your Higher Self.
A crystal wand has a force field or aura around it like any other object. It is easy to feel this field when you slowly wave the tip of the wand over the opened left palm.
For my SALA Exhibition I decided I wanted to make a sculptural piece to tie in with my Tree of Life paintings. I do have an Irish heritage and have always been drawn to all things Fae.
