alice /disney tea cup study

I am a bit of a collector and i am sure in some peoples eyes a hoarder...............yes as u may well imagine my house is very bright and colorful with everything screaming out at you form all directions . INTENSE to say the least . To me however i find it carming to be surrounded by all things that i love . From barbies to teacups its all here and from vases then back to records . I could never live minimal myself however my painting are almost always hanging in very beautiful minimal house's across the world . They even appear happier that way . lol . I love to paint what i love as with most artists, so if its dear to me it will end up immortalized on canvas at some point. My teacup collection is getting a painted at the moment just in time for mothers days . My brisbane gallery has requested some smaller works and this series fits in just perfectly.  This alice in wonderland tea cup is one of my most precious pieces in my collection . HAPPY COLLECTING / hoarding x

happy easter !!!!!!!!

happy easter everyone ........................OHHHHHHH how i love bunnies , the furry kind . Not those amazing mashmello kinds that come in molds and u roll them in coconut that i fondly remember from my childhood . OK i loved them as well . Being a big Alice in wonderland fan of course i love the icon of the white rabbit . MAGICAL . The other bunny that interests me in the playboy bunny , a very tacky modern cult icon in its own right . I do admit to having playboy bunnies seat covers . Like i said a tacky trashy ICON. I guess one girls fairy-tale can be different to the next girls . Let not forget the chocolate bunnies OMG so good ,  i am a huge cabury bunny girl . It dose not get any better than that . Of course being a good catholic girl i do know the real meaning of easter and i am sure it will make my grandmother's easter by seeing me frocked up in a church . This is a quiet a rare sight these day !!!!!!!!!! so HAPPY EASTER everyone.x

‎"la paix et la tranquillité" is French for Peace and Tranquillity

hello !!!!!!!!! i have had a break from my blog as i have been very creative in the studio and spending a bit less time in cyber world .  Have been working on some new nudes and experimenting with much brighter colours and just splashing the paint around with no real direction just going with my heart . Totally enjoying being more free and not so controlled . Its a bit like what i was doing 15 years ago but far more evolved . I am very happy with them and love these colours . The world need more colour these days and i think we all agree with that . This is called   ‎"la paix et la tranquillité" and is  French for Peace and Tranquillity ‎. !!!!!!
