Heck yes!

i decided to add a boat because it just felt kind of empty

Howl's moving castle? Check

Do you a hear a voice like velvet through the night sky.
Do you hear the fickle hand of fate at my side

Just a shoe tree i made for sculpture :)

Sooooo lazy

Reaching Koda/so, are we out of touch?

i love this show and there for i love this. so freakin' rad

Frankie has released this photo album, all the pictures are so amazing. It's reminded me of how much I love photography, I want to pick up a camera again.
I found the photo album in Borders today, and got really excited becuase I had finally found it. Needless to say I'm not going to run out of insperation anytime soon.

because I want to support Perth and other Australian bands

Is this flying?
Or is this feeling dying?

A really bad photo of some experimentation

The sky's on fire tonight

We Are The Emergency/ its floating wicker propelled by fire

not for those who think screaming is noise pollution

well hello hello, this is a drawing i did for my 8 year old cousin (actually i think she might be older than that). i hope she likes it. she wanted a horse, so she got a unicorn.



In other news.
THE PERTH ROYAL SHOW.
its the probably the most expensive 7 day event that you could spend your money on.
one of the many things i got was these two items. Guess which one cost more.



yeah thats right. this one. and all it will do is stay in the one spot forever, with its only use of looking awesome and collecting dust.

Just found some photos from and exihibition that i went to last month called the secret garden. i forget who the artists were, but they had some crazy ass stuff. That deformed hand for inastance and mushrooms with buttons and this:

if you wanted tea, you had to milk the udder to get your milk. it was crazy. i was told there was one with cream for the scones that were there but i didnt see that one. another fairy told me there was food in the trees. I DIDNT SEE THAT EITHER. so i dont know if that was a lie

This pretty much speaks for itself.
click the photo.

i really dont like fuitloops

Freaking out and forgetting frankenstien
Fuitloops for the win
Fighting back the flying fish
And floating with the wind

Facing a forgotten face
Chasing a frozen frog
Falling from a fake sky
And freeing a frightened firefly

ayee I'll polaroid that shit

Perth will never have anything this cool

ohmygosh! she's alive!
the last time i posted something was the start of last month, and scince then i havnt been doing anything new. although im now starting to do more art for myself and to sell at the markets as opposed to just doing art for tafe. speaking of, there's only 7 weeks left of tafe. 3 weeks this term, 4 weeks for next term. im really excited, coz it means that ill be diploma next year, which meeaannns my own space woooooooo.

experimentations that are the result of me finally getting motivated to do something. i think i've almost figured it out.

20 mins waiting time, a plain napkin and a marker....dont mind if i do!

so today i made a something like a bedside table with 3 draws, for all my art things just cause im sick of everything sitting in the corner of my room. if you want to know how to make one, this is what you do:
1) go to Ikea
2) Follow the insctruction booklet
3) Use a Pillips screwdriver cause APPARENTLY it matters, or so my dad says. maybe it's a guy thing.




went and revisited lisa mitchell's myspace. i forgot how much i love her music, it makes me want to pick up my guitar. This video clip is too good, imma going to get myself some bird cages and hang buttons in them now. definitely can't figure out why i havent thought of that yet, i see the nicest birdcages in 2nd hand stores. the only thing stopping me from getting them is the fact that i dont have a use for them.

Take my hand and we will run away

Take My Hand (Remix)

love this song

i kinda like the idea of this

i maybe, just a little, be really in love with this person's work. her sculptures are epic, there's no other word that i can think of that explains it for me. i wish i could buy some of her stuff

and could we just for a second take a look at a piece of work by Claire Morgan.
This is called Fluid



i can't seem to take my eyes away from it, i have no idea why. it might have something to do with the fact that the strawberry cloud is floating there of it's own accord, completely deifying gravity and frozen in time, and is it just me or can anyone else almost feel the strawberries falling?

sfkjhgdfjlfkdsfjg is all i can say to this

Before

after



ive run out of ideas, of things to say. have to go back to when i didnt care and my mind was buzzing

Here's a problem that's six feet tall
More trouble then you could dream of
The camourflage of empty lies
Hides the truth from pryng eyes

But it's too late for you, your caught in her storm
Now sit back and watch the trouble she'll cause
And she doesnt care for the end result
This is just a game, winner takes all

yay for print making

and bond crete

why does our imagination like to play tricks on us? make us believe something that isnt real, like when you smile at someone you know from across the room and all they do is look away. you get told that they dont what to talk to you, or they are ignoring you. but maybe you walked away before they could do anything. maybe its not our imagination thats playing tricks on us, could it be that we see what we want to see and believe? but isnt that our imagination working anyway?

i saw this side table the other day and got all excited because i need new draws and everything ive seen in furniture stores are all the same and unoriginal.



i think autumn has kidnapped winter and could quite possibly be holding it for randsom but no-one has realised yet.

the drawing for the day

she hides in bushes and watches you lie to people.
she knows the truth even if you dont.

i swear the only thing stopping netball players from killing eachother is the non-contact rule.

a drawing a day keeps the sanity away.
i should put that in my header.



i want to draw faces with the big wide doll eyes.

i will get it someday.

how are you? and your day?
mine was relaxing.
i started a digital drawing, i want to see what happens when i print it on an a4 canvas sheet. hopefully it'll work.
also if your in need of music that will make you smile: myspace.com/nevershoutnever is good start

here's a still life that i did in paintng last week. im quite proud of it.



wooo charlie and the chocolate factory is on right now, i love the colours in this and johnny depp scares me just as much as he make me laugh.

in other news i somehow managed to crack the screen of my laptop, my options: pay the arm and a leg to get it fixed or buy a new one. we'll see.
im off now to go practice my drawing.

im eating maple flavoured pancakes with maple syrup. genius i know. best lunch ever. actually no, scratch that, stickest lunch ever. (note to self: pancakes the size of the frying pan are beyond you flipping capabilities).

dear winter,
you are finally here, late, but here.
now, go away.
xo

i dont mind winter to much, i'd like it even better if it wasn't windy.
anyway, on thursday when i walked into tafe i was greeted with this:

a wishing tree.

it was fun to watch as the tree "grew" threw out the day and to see what people wrote.

this is the black and white version of my friends h/w. the actual colours are blue, red and yellow, because in theory blue=black, red=grey, yellow=white. i asked her if i could have the painting cause i thought it was awesome and she said yes. my painting teacher tried to make her sell it me, but she said she wasnt going to make me pay money for something thats crap. it made me laugh

i cant type right now, my fingers are frozen.
going through some old poems. i remember i wrote one a couple of years back. it was about 5 pages long and told a story about a girl running away. running from the castle and from the things that chased her as she ran, i never finshed it. i think i threw it out, shame, i really want to read it again. i can remember exactly what happened but i cant remember the words. mabye ill try and write it again

as seasons go past, and days go by
it's here i lie, deep in my mind
things are changing, so i can't stay here
time wont wait, and I'll disappear

why have i been deprived of this.

also, i want to see this

Headed for disaster, Way beyond the fear
In the rear view , Watch it all just disappear
I don't care where I'm headed, Anywhere but here
Won't waste my life, Can't waste another night
In this town
- Hurricane Streets, Hey Monday

Hold On Tight.
one of the only ones i can listen to over and over again and not be annoyed by it.
'nuff said

Ps. good news. Polaroid film is back in the works. yay

So meet me underneath the station and I'll wait for you

these cardboard towns are all we ever knew,no one's around the streets are quiet now

a familiar tune,we complain that there's nothing much to do

and every night will be, no one but you and me

I cant say but still it shows, that I dont want you to go

and underneath our conversation an unspoken truth that if you wait for me I'll wait for you.

- God is dead meet the kids by British India

i painted this for sarah's 18th. i've never tried doing something like this before so im glad it turned out the way it did.

mixed media on board


i love seeing people dressed differently from everyone else. example. today i saw this girl wearing a black velevet cape and while everyone was giving her wtf? stares to her back, i was thinking awww yeeeahhh how awesome is that cape. cause really, it was pretty cool.

this place feels like home. everytime i come here, home comes into my head. i need to snap back into reality, not all the time, actually less then half the time.

oh and black marker, it seems that you hate wood. no really, i need you to start working again so i can finish my picture.
