In support of Women’s Cancer Research

My friend Dina is running an event to raise funds for Women’s Cancer Research. I am submitting this T-shirt for auction.

She has also asked for some promotional materials, and I have decided to make some sweet little tags in a few colours – a close-up of one of the tags is shown below. Hopefully the T-shirt will be auctioned off at a sizable $$$ for a charitable cause.

Inspired by Ireland

In today’s post, I’d like to share with you a painting that was inspired by my recent holiday in Ireland.

I enjoyed painting the expression of the sky, and the wonderful colours of the buildings. A young lady sits on the roof-top, engrossed in her book (perhaps a romantic novel?), with her cat for company. The bottom image is close-up showing the lady and her cat.

Skywatch - sunrise in Melbourne, Australia

I was lucky to be able to capture this on a morning when I woke up early, and was not able to get back to sleep.

Cycling across Africa

btcycle

I have the privilege to help Kate with her “Breaking the Cycle” project recently, by designing her website, http://www.btcycle.com. Kate is going to be cycling across Africa – yes, pedal power – covering over 20,000 km.

She starts pedalling in a few weeks time - you can find out more and follow her journey on http://www.btcycle.com

My first succulent topiary

This is my first succulent topiary! I am really happy with the result and hopefully the plants will stay healthy for many years.

The succulent plants are growing in moss, and this can be hung on the wall. I think it’s a pretty good idea to have plants in a frame on the balcony wall – a fantastic space saving idea :).

I have posted the details of making the frame, and completing the project here:
