The Tinkling of Ceramics

Monday, 7 September 2015

I’ve been toiling away again, hence the absence. I’ve been sketching, painting, tracing, writing and brainstorming. All in the name of my design course, which is ticking along [very slowly]! Even though I am finding it hard to juggle both full-time employment and studying in the evenings, I’m learning so much and loving every minute. I am fully immersed in creativity and am itching to try new techniques. Working with clay is top of my list at the moment. I’m taking my inspiration from ceramic artist Justine Lacoste. The milky white ceramic dishes are straight out of a fairytale.

Necessity

Wednesday, 26 August 2015

I wonder how many times I have said (or have overheard) the phrase: I need a holiday. In all honesty, I don’t think the saying has ever rung truer for me at the moment. I’m hanging on by a thread here. I’m dreaming of sun-kissed shoulders, wide brimmed sun hats, drinks with little cocktail umbrellas, the sounds of the sea lapping at rocks… getting a bit carried away here. My next getaway is not for a while yet so join me while I take a little virtual trip to Mykonos, specifically the San Giorgio Hotel. You can thank me later.

A Quintessential Aussie Weekend

Monday, 24 August 2015

I’ve been slowly working through my list of goals for 2015 – admittedly, my success rate has not been great (and it’s already nearly September). But there is still time for them to be realised. In the meantime, I am one step closer by spotting a wombat on a recent trip to the South Coast. We stopped by a spot they are known to frolic, and there he was, a lone wombat munching on the grass in broad daylight. He was very patient and posed for numerous photos.
