Today....

Today....I am dreaming about Melbourne....daydreaming that I am walking along the Yarra, watching the rowers on the river, stopping for a coffee outside the Arts Centre on St Kilda Road to soak up the wonderful Melbourne vibe....

oh Melbourne, when will I see you again?

3am whispers

I have so much to catch up on with blogging, so much I want to share here in my journey about the exhibition in Napier, the Craft 2.0 market and general goings-on.  But catch up posts can wait.  I had to put everything aside today to create this new photo, with words whispered to me at 3am this morning as I tip-toed out of Annabel's room....

i love you to the moon & stars & fairies & flowers...

& back....

Falling in love again...

 {we were destined to be friends}

I am in love with the Butterflies again. 

It's funny to think that way back in 2009, 

on a beautiful early summers day, 

whilst out walking with Annabel (then aged 3) 

a conversation we had as we watched the butterflies 

floating from one flower to the next, 

provided the inspiration for this series.  

Annabel has been an endless source of inspiration for me - 

she is My Muse.

So anyway,

a few weeks ago I had a request for new work 

in the Butterfly Series from a client, 

and to be honest, I wasn't sure if I could revive them.  

But it turns out I fell in love again....

and have some ideas for more to add to the range.  

Happy Friday to you all, cheers to falling in love all over again!

 Letting the photo do the talking, 

and playing along in Wordless Wednesday today with Sarah 

over at Faith, Hope and a whole lotta Love.

Daydreaming....

Daydreaming today....about swimming at dusk....

with the warmth of the evening summer sun upon my shoulders....

Sometimes I wonder...

 

Sometimes I wonder where my day goes....

All I wanted was to take some product photos....

yet this little cheeky monkey insisted on playing....

and so I think, with a 2 year old in the house,

I should never wonder where my days go....

{and as I type this post I have a 4 year old sitting on my knee, keeping me nice and warm...}
