This weekend I am having a mini-exhibition at the studio's with the talented Luka. She loves drawing koalas too! The exhibition is on at the back studio at 453 Brighton Rd from 4 - 7pm, but I will be there from 11am if you can't make it to the officialness.
The Post Office inside Pasadena Foodlands and Hilton Plaza Post Office now have displays of my entire range of cards. Another new stockist is Studio Lingo at Prospect.
Earlier this year one of my Uncles passed away. He used to ring us everyday and tell us jokes. I have been working on a series of drawings of some of his inventions. The Drill Blender as you may have worked out is made by sticking a blender blade in the end of a drill from cash converters.
The Five Senses of Love, a book by that I illustrated has won the Bronze Award in the Picture Book category at the 2011 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards. Also rather exciting is while I was painting a portrait last week my friend drew a picture of me, she even put in all my paints that were on the table.
Honestly I don't take illicit substances I just like painting multicoloured rabbits. I think that rabbits are far too bouncy and happy to be beige. These rabbits are hopping off to Out of the Cot for a visit.

My cards are positive, colourful and humorous. I use watercolour and digital collage to create the designs. Quaint expressions and things kids say inspire the words on the cards.

I am constantly experimenting with crafty things.
I enjoy painting portraits in watercolour. The portraits are in my ‘big head ‘ style so they are not realistic and everyone looks about 3 years old.
