Around here...

Around here....


To the beach! It's still warm enough for a swim- personally I'm hanging out for a bit of Winter...


Feet up in my favourite spot. Might need to tidy the bookcase.


I sanded and re-covered the second chair - only took six months or so to get round to it..


Our hibiscus is still flowering like mad, this pic doesn't capture the true startling pink of the flowers!


Some locals picked on a walk


A nice cup of tea - what I'm planning to do right now :)

Making

I've been pretty creative the last couple of weeks - last Sunday I went to a workshop about printing on clay at the Fremantle Arts Centre - we learnt how to mono-print and screenprint onto clay which was really interesting and has given me lots of ideas of new pottery projects for myself and for work.

These are my tiles which are waiting to be fired - I'll share them when they come out of the kiln!


Speaking of pottery, here's a little video I made of my pottery guys at work doing their stuff -
you can find other films by Ability Arts here.

           

Also for work I designed the poster and flyers for our drama group's latest production, The Journey.
At the Mandurah Performing Arts Centre on the 29th and 30th April - tickets are free!




I had a day off yesterday and headed straight to the op-shops - I bought a pile of old plates and a scruffy Ikea lamp base -



I've just grouted it and now I need a plain white shade - I'll show you when it's finished!
