Sometimes tiny changes can have a big impact.



I lost the cord to connect my camera and my scanner to my computer. That's my excuse for lack of update. It's not a great excuse though, my sister has the same camera and, therefore, the same cord upstairs. Lately I've been working away on this piece. I'm planning on submitting a proposal to have a show at Carnegie Gallery and submissions are due in May. It's probably going to take me that long to finish up this baby.

A major thing for me lately has been media exploration. I'm not going to go on to give you another half hour lecture on it's importance.. I'm just having so much fun with it. I recently discovered a magazine [http://www.frankie.com.au/] that is so perfectly me, but it's an out-of-date issue and the most recent one is nowhere to be found. It's ok though, it's coming from Australia, so my August issue was talking about the approaching summer. It was my luck that I scored an old issue, the knitting pattern was a super cute hat - I don't know if I would have felt the same had I been handed a crocheted bikini that I wouldn't make use of even in an Australian December.

I like hats, and I ramble a bit too much.

I'm back into complete Chuck Close obsession mode again, and I've fallen in love with Rob Ryan's lovely cut-outs.

I've also done a little bit of part-time career switching around.

I've started a Christmas list already.

I'm playing guitar again..

and I drew with a pencil for the first time in over a year.
