This is me...

Rummaging about last night I found this photo of me as a young 'un at my first ever exhibition of my work. O.K. the "exhibition" was in my bedroom and O.K. the only people who came to the show were my Mum and Dad and some distracted but very affectionate cats. However, the fact remains that it was an exhibition of sorts and I remember it very well. Which is strange because I must have only been about 4 or 5 at the time. I remember Dad pointing to some particular part of the painting and asking me what these things were. I very confidently replied: "mushrooms"! This occasion is seared onto my memory whereas I had trouble the other day remembering the name of Prince Charles' eldest son (it's William). It's funny how the mind works, isn't it?

Happy weekend!

This is the companion and partner in crime to my other little Geisha. They are inseparable and very good company as you can imagine. This lovely thing is now up in my shop too!

Meanwhile, we seemed to have skipped Autumn and gone straight to Winter here in Sydney. I've gone from wearing T-shirts and bare legs to being in full Michelin Man mode, layered, spherical, round insulated thing with tights and ear muffs, scarves etc. I always panic a bit when the weather does that : "Oh no! I haven't got anything to wear!" But after digging around a bit in chests of drawers and wardrobes I find that I am adequately covered for most weather conditions.

Happy Friday/ Saturday (depending on your time zone) folks! Have a lovely, adventurous, relaxing weekend!
