Simon (the father) is taking some pretty impressive shots in his new country of residence, Laos. More of his photos up on his flickr site, click through to see.

Julia Pott Video

I've watched the lovely little characters from Julia Pott on Noise.com for awhile - and then found this! Ridiculously the cutest dance scene ever:

Entry for Illustration Friday loosely based on repair - of the heart that is!

Double Bass Painting

I've been moving into a bit of paint work, but it sort of scares me so this is an easy-in, combining drawing (ahh, relaxing) with the paint! Looks good on a wall methinks.

Back to the drawings. Awhile back my boy left for a few months overseas, and I was imagining the journey from my desk at home...

Sunset - Broome

Black and White Bonanza

Oh my god what a fun little japanese site (they seem to do everything that little bit cooler than the rest of the world): http:/labs.wanokoto.jp/olds - turning your new (or blurry, or not that well framed) photos into old looking works of art. Like this one I took of Matt. Woo Hoo! Now all I need is something to add that polaroid effect...

It begins

I've resisted for so long... Its such a weird public space to share your thoughts. But I have so many drawings pouring out of me at the moment, and a guilty pleasure for reading other people's blogs, so I think its time. 

Eg this drawing - well I'm waiting for an important call, that may or may not happen, with a sick sort of nervousness for it, do and don't want to hear the phone ring, etc. 

But there are happier things to share too... Beautiful sites discovered, photos and happy drawings. We'll see how I go.
