Now to finish this one…

Sooo close… a few tweaks, maybe a very subtle background to hide my accidental paint splotches and then done… only taken a month 🙄 Slow art indeed! But I would rather this than instant gratification…

This is absolutely beautiful

Triumphant lilies top this exuberant display of flowers from 1670 by Jan de Heem. It's his birthday.

Given how much more fucked up the world is about to get, the question isn't are you better off than you were three years ago - it's what do you think the next three years are going to be like and who do you want making the decisions? And that's not just about a PM, but the whole parliament.

Getting closer to adding some little double barred finches to this precarious pile of precious porcelain… Work in progress in watercolour

It’s official! I am an official at the Sydney Royal Arts & Crafts Show as part of the Royal Easter Show! To say I am honoured is an understatement!

“The corporate revolution will collapse if we refuse to buy what they are selling – their ideas, their version of history, their wars, their weapons, their notion of inevitability. Remember this: We be many and they be few. They need us more than we need them. “ ― Arundhati Roy, War Talk

Haven’t had much of a chance to paint the last couple of days, so this is end of day three of painting… starting to get into the detail now… still have started on the wrens yet, I want to make sure it all balances (precariously) before adding the birds

Ozymandias

Know someone who isn’t a huge fan of chocolate? How about a limited edition Bubble O’Billby print or a pack of ten cards. Normally for every sale of these two items I donate 5% to Save the Bilby Fund, but between now and Easter I am doubling my donation to 10%. Link to shop in bio

This weekend’s work in progress… getting there slowly, but it was a welcome distraction from doomscrolling

My assistant is not being particularly helpful today… she most definitely has mischief on her mind
