rescued (pinched) a succulent from my daughters window sill. repotted, tided up dead foliage and gave it a good drink. i'm sure camille will be surprised - in a favourable way.
A surprise in the mail. A complimentary magazine sent out to me courtesy junkies magazine. Pretty nice of them. a magazine full of free thinkers i can relate to.
recently made a round shallow bowl using the papier mache technique. The curve of the bowl was important, so I spent some time building up the shape. I pasted on various shades of white newspaper in haphazard fashion over the surface using a simple, acid free paste. Similar to the type used by conservators of important old manuscripts.
It looks organic - imperfect. The neutral color of the bowl complements my arrangement of banksia seed pods arranged in side. These have fond memories for us, as we collected them during our walk on the little drift track, wilsons prom. Very unusual, they look almost like little marsupial creatures.
And a nifty hard cover watercolor sketchbook in a very lovely blue, for my walking sketches.
