Going for something a little abstract this week to illustrate the topic. This was originally entitled ‘Third Space’ demonstrating the gap between one culture and another (its very deep – I was in uni at the time!), The gap is meant to be invisible so if you look very closely you can [...]

The theme for PF this week is accidental and how could I go past this photo that we took in the UK. The guy in this was fine by the way, he crawled out of the window a minute or two later. We found him to be surrounded by mcdonalds wrappers (from the back seat)with [...]

I’m going to try doing this new post each week called Wordless Wednesday. I like the idea of just putting up a photo and not explaining anything. So, this should be the only time I put words to a photo on a Wednesday (in theory anyway)! I’m guessing that if you want an explaination of [...]

If you’ve ever stood and watched the lolly (candy) makers at one of those lolly shops like Roc Candy or similar (you probably have something like this in other countries), then [...]

The IF theme this week is ‘Ghost’ and I thought this was appropriate. This is a practice piece which is a part of a much larger work. Done in oils using the rubbing out method.

PF this week is ‘Innocence’ and how could I go past posting a photo of my daughter Keziah. The hardest part was choosing and seeing as I don’t like to show her whole face this one fitted perfectly! She was very excited a few weeks ago when she had these balloons to play with while [...]

Mum of two, wife to Michael, follower of Jesus, Australian, lover of all things creative and artistic. I try to do fun things with my girls, I often stress too much, over-react or worry but I'm very grateful for the patience, love and forgiveness of God and those around me.
This blog is just my way of connecting with other people around the world. Its not my intention to show off in any way just to share a bit about myself. Besides all of that, blogging keeps me a bit more sane than usual!
