Feather your nest

I've always been a bit of a collector. As a kid, I used to keep little white pebbles (or 'lucky stones' as we called them), leaf skeletons, coral and shells from our beach holidays (along with a few poor little hermit crabs that I used to stash in the car without my parents' knowledge )....and feathers. I always loved finding feathers, particularly white ones, as my Nan used to tell me they were good luck. The gorgeous patterns and colours always appealed to my artistic side, too. So here's a little feather study I did the other day:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4Xrj4ia3WXcd0sohXPpbTumei9kVTANFkWbYeY8LCwBjs-SuWHKw0a7AjSzULlwJ_W3LNx0VoYb3jbD5PLNO1Am0sXczjz-UTn91VKuSNGUwLEMadJLe3d2qP-97z_kXvs0P7bmTlRnqE/s1600/feather+painting+may+2011.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4Xrj4ia3WXcd0sohXPpbTumei9kVTANFkWbYeY8LCwBjs-SuWHKw0a7AjSzULlwJ_W3LNx0VoYb3jbD5PLNO1Am0sXczjz-UTn91VKuSNGUwLEMadJLe3d2qP-97z_kXvs0P7bmTlRnqE/s640/feather+painting+may+2011.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">'Collected'</div><div style="text-align: center;">watercolour on paper </div><div style="text-align: center;">210mm x 297mm</div><div style="text-align: center;">prints available in my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/75055615/collected-new-watercolour-painting">Etsy shop</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><br />I'm thinking I may start a series of feather paintings - and peacock feathers are next on my list.I found this pic the other day:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYzujYNQtUDU5CT2A9rZ6AeVCl0CK2ItdUvkexbLyrTQKyreJXsWnkOb8b9O9hUaS8icPamPaePesgA4julyZN2xfkbe7aZ5IqrBKYVjdBTclYfFew_l7wLQzgAFjWtJeVN9jHIG_cpzrm/s1600/feathers+peacock-feather-centerpiece.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYzujYNQtUDU5CT2A9rZ6AeVCl0CK2ItdUvkexbLyrTQKyreJXsWnkOb8b9O9hUaS8icPamPaePesgA4julyZN2xfkbe7aZ5IqrBKYVjdBTclYfFew_l7wLQzgAFjWtJeVN9jHIG_cpzrm/s640/feathers+peacock-feather-centerpiece.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.themeweddingboutique.com/">source</a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">They are lovely, aren't they?

Drift II

Well, I promised a peek at one of my new paintings, so here it is. It's pouring here in Brisbane at the moment, and with my dinky camera I'm having a terrible time trying to get a decent photo. I'm working on some new mixed-media works for my 'Drift' series, along with some different colourways, so when the weather clears I'll try to get some half decent shots!<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

A big thank you

A few weeks ago, an email arrived from the lovely Kat over at <a href="http://lowtidehighstyle.blogspot.com/">Low Tide High Style</a>. I'd only recently found her blog, and after commenting on a particularly touching post she'd written, she emailed me about doing an artist profile.<br /><br />To say I was surprised was an understatement. I'm still blown away by the kindness and generosity of the blogging community, and Kat is definitely one of those genuinely lovely people. So after emailing back and forth, she contacted me yesterday to say that the interview had been posted, which you can read over <a href="http://lowtidehighstyle.blogspot.com/2010/05/driftwood-interiors.html">here</a> if you'd like to.<br /><br />I just wanted to send Kat a huge thank you for being so generous and supportive.  And I also wanted to let everyone know what a great blog Kat has, and if you haven't visited before, you really are missing out. Here's a snippet:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPDEOFhBe4R2rWNeTcLoTRweeFE3IHH7BSrXsac1XnKdmrCwzD6yTYWS5s_uieaEivSa2wB_VxMVQA7Or-jeub7hYQSTI0XdM6LFdpzXVdht-BeelikutsKQx_8Cn2aibbo9QgXsaiEvA/s1600/a5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPDEOFhBe4R2rWNeTcLoTRweeFE3IHH7BSrXsac1XnKdmrCwzD6yTYWS5s_uieaEivSa2wB_VxMVQA7Or-jeub7hYQSTI0XdM6LFdpzXVdht-BeelikutsKQx_8Cn2aibbo9QgXsaiEvA/s400/a5.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">this is Kat's kitchen from the first post I read, '<a href="http://lowtidehighstyle.blogspot.com/2010/04/how-i-met-my-house.html">How I Met My House</a>" </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Kat is a writer and photographer, and travels around shooting gorgeous images for her magazine articles.

James Gordon paintings

I've long been a fan of <a href="http://jamesgordonworkshop.com.au/">James Gordon</a>. Not only is he a very talented artist, he's also an event planner extraordinaire. So I was thrilled when I saw he was involved in the Inside Out magazine charity art auction.<br />Take a look at some of his gorgeous paintings. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
