Cold, geometric and gun metals. I am sorry mystery woman.

I don't have much to say, except this week I came across a jewellers website. She made large geometric gorgeous, pendants and earrings from blocks of metals and rocks... so stunning, cold, gold, silver and gun metal grey and geometric.  I instantly grabbed my diary and doodled till dinner time. Her wares got me inspired. All i wanted to do was make lines. linework. more linework! When about to post her details, i realised I lost her name, lost her website. I have nothing. she is a total mystery to me now. Her beautiful skills and talent are lost to me. im devastated. I have googled and googled to no avail. Mystery jeweller woman who are you. total mystery. 

I have 20 pages of illustrations all because of you mystery woman. Im sorry. She had a stockist in Melbourne ... alas. On this disappointing note, I chose a few key doodles. Here they are.

 Can you make me some pendants for me? Are these objects familiar to you, can you help me?

In a better note, hand me my red wine. Its a Saturday night! x 

If time is my vessel, then learning to love might be my way back to sea

so here are some sweet sweet pics of my sweet sweet Tasmanian tiny adventure.  


{ My trusty cannon point and shoot was claimed by the beaches of the town of 1770. I bought a new one, this one is a sony cybershot point and shoot something something} 

All pics taken with my new pocket size toy.

I saw a pair of wombats in Cradle Mountain national park  which was a total thrill, I recall screaming like a wild bush banshie in excitement! I have never actually understood how wombats fit into our Australian landscape till now. It made perfect sense, the mother and baby wombats were perfectly camouflaged amongst the bush and rough grass, I wondered why everyone else around me wasn't as excited as me.   I drank multiple bottles of wine in celebration of Dreamboats birthday and and had the best of intentions of climbing to the summit of cradle mountain ... however a cabin with a wood fire delayed the early morning rise, so a trek around dove lake was next best option. We had a Guinness in Chopper Reids old pub, I caught up with a lovely Hobart local and drove from one side of the island to the other. Heaps of roadkill. I poked a beautiful dead echidna with a stick and encountered some bush walking elitism. good times. 

Brisbane just seemed like a dirty ole prozzy when I returned. Brisbane just keeps bulldozing every last bit of heritage in the city which is such a shame. the Deen and Deen brothers have alot to blame. So much stunning architecture and history was decimated in the late 70s - 80s. Hobart is so wholesome in the best ways, the way I imagined when I was a tiny kid in school ... the type of Australia that would be waiting for me when i grew up. I do Love Brisbane, but miss the ye olde. 


Anywho, HUZZAH FOR THE WEEKEND!

Floral friday fornicating for your eyeballs

pen on paper + geometric shapes.

Silly doodles make me pretty happy. 

 Im back from a small holiday and wanting to go back on one already. Im thinking about flowers today and I cannot wait until tomorrow for my post, short attention span.  Im thinking aout geometric shapes and non smelling flowers. Ive never been a fan of flowers. In fact, when someone once gave me a bouquet my first thing to mind was "what have you done?" ... and my heart sunk. Expecting only the worst, perhaps a lie. 

Here are some florals for you reader.
