25.01.2022 Plants = Joy Loving a studio upgrade!!#betterwithplants #takecareofyourself #studiobliss #scbwidrawthis #studiospaces #plantporn
23.01.2022 One of the many lived stories of my farmor and farfar living in Denmark during the German occupation in 1942.. But what to do with it now? 250 hours+ invested in a story they never openly shared but for me it still feels relevant. #1942 #papercut #resistance

18.01.2022 My dad gave me some much needed advice the other day. He talked about creativity and how it demands a lot of energy. He reminded me of the importance when creating, to let yourself simply be. He said focusing always on the target will make your art empty and devoid of meaning and I have to say I agree. #iamhuman #mindfulness #takingtime #newchapter

14.01.2022 Animating again after quite a while... The kitchen as well as the living room are, for the time being, my studio until further notice... Fortunately for me I have a willing and able accomplice and technical advisor on my team. #bestbf #homestudio #philtippett

10.01.2022 Play time! Experimenting with collage and mixed-media recently and I'm loving it. It's been hard to get past weighty expectations and goals to get to the 'what happens if I do this?' but feel like I'm making headway #perfectionismsucks #nzillustrator #makeamess #cutitout

05.01.2022 That time Team Animal Spirits performed at Dots+Loops and Sean Healy and Robert Jarvis projected and captured my giant hands while I paper cut an animated bird...

05.01.2022 Show time! The 100 Faces exhibition is showing at @playing_in_the_attic from June 27th - July 19th. Having moved to Ballarat nearly six years ago my selection of five portraits is a tribite to some of the key figures who first welcomed me and invited me to to dream big and contribute to a thriving local arts community. I am eternally grateful @amytinderbox @linda_franklin_artist @kirismar @madameyum @clarence_mcjulie and thank you @playing_in_the_attic for hosting what is sure to be an intimate & memorable collection of works. Official unveiling Saturday 27th. #guesswho #100facesballarat #graphiteart
