Open studios is finished for 2013

Here is a clip I made of my studio

I had lots of great feedback, meet some new people, caught up with some and enjoyed my time chatting to loads of people over the even. It was a perfect stream of visitor as I could connect with mostly everyone.

I managed to finish a painting for Maddy, she turned 4 on Sunday

A protection angel for her room.

We had a party for her Sunday afternoon

Can't believe she is 4 already!

I took Mum and Maddy out to Waverley to see Lisa Walsh's glass installation I couldn't take photos as you can see the sign from the door.
