Yay for the environment! I do my utmost to source Yay for the environment!

I do my utmost to source the most ethical, sustainable and environmentally-friendly processes and products for my business?

I hope that with changes such as these, should we all employ as many of these practices in our lives, we can ensure there will always be a beautiful, sustainably luscious earth to live in! 

The way we choose to behave and live in this world is a huge part of how we HOPE our children/future population/creatures of our planet will ‘survive’ and hopefully also enjoy its ALL riches!
Choose to make changes where you can (even if it’s annoying or ‘you don’t have time’) because we have only one planet & ‘second chances’ have a time limit.

End of Term baeeeby! I may look and feel like thi End of Term baeeeby!

I may look and feel like this kookaburra...but I’m bloody proud to say we’ve made it through our first kindy school term!
It was an interesting introduction into my daughter’s first year of kindy, waving her off into a school I’d never actually been in (thanks to COVID), but she’s been an absolute firecracker and has loved everything about it from the get-go! Huzzah!
We’re exhausted.
It’s been a huge new learning curve for all of us...
But, we did it!
Now for school holidays 🤔😳

She’s arrived! Roxy the Red Wattlebird framed o She’s arrived!

Roxy the Red Wattlebird framed original painting has arrived safely in Tasmania!!
The beautiful Kate, who purchased Roxy, sent me this snap of her in new forever home! Kate has some local red wattlebirds that visit her home and she told me she felt a strong emotional connection to Roxy and likeness to the ones that visit her. 
🤗
Hearing stories, feedback and receiving photos like these make my heart soar! 

Thank you Kate for both supporting me as an artist but also for being an awesome human (especially during the frustrating delay of the art courier)!

I’m due for some new original artworks, me thinks! I feel a creative surge coming on! 🤔💪🏻🙌🏻

So much to consider! Tonight is the last night of So much to consider!

Tonight is the last night of my short course in book illustration @artestartschool with Serena Geddes @thefreelancer101 
In just a few short weeks, my mind has been blown!

Hot-dang is there a lot of work that works into illustrating a book!

Illustrations aren’t just about creating an artwork that you love and were inspired to do.

It is something that is required to tell a story, describe a character, take you on a journey. 
You’ve got to stay ‘on theme’, ‘on character’, maintain colour consistency, page layout, text considerations, lighting/time of day...the list goes on!

I can definitely recommend this course to anyone dabbling with the idea of book creation! It’s a deep dive into “🎶a whole new world, a dazzling place I’ve never been...🎶”

Now...off to complete my end of course illustration!
