Little does he know
My little boy Homer is heading to the Vet specialist early tomorrow morning for a full knee reconstruction or something similar to an ACL knee injury (a bit like the footy players get at times). The next 6-8 weeks will be trying for him and probably me too. He is only four so he is still young enough to recover well. I’m hoping he will recover quicker than they say and back to his bouncy, loveable ready to please self. x

My cosy workspace
www.instagram.com/p/CEladVcjmPg/ I wondered how I would cope after moving house and not having a studio anymore. But it’s nothing to worry about as an artist can make and create even on their knee. Fortunately I have enough room on my adored French mid 1800’s table for a small illustration or a finished painting using my table top easle. I’m cosy and happy. 🙂

Walks around the neighbourhood
We are tending to take more notice on our one hour of exercise a day structure in Melbourne for now. I keep finding treasure in the many gardens and such adorable little and biggish homes I pass. Homes that must be filled with a vast array of stories that could fill a book. I think these little homes and gardens are exuding warmth, cosy and love in buckets; I feel it as I pass by. I’ve picked flowers (trying to be discreet) from these blooming gardens and have started the process of pressing them in many old books. What joy I am making with my miniature artworks and pressed flowers…

Soft play making foggy mountains in Japan
I had a little splurge and got myself a little set of pan pastels in the ‘greyscale’. Playing in these soft pigments that glide on like velvet and feel very painterly was fab. Can’t wait for more playtime. 🙂
