Darryl never really trusted Delbert, there was just something odd about him.

I'm Back! ^^

Hi friends, sorry for the huge gap in posting lately, I have been busy setting up a little soju shots studio. Its a cosy little space in the centre of town where I'm hoping to create a little range of soju shots prints, cards and other bits and pieces. I will still be painting and exhibiting my work too :D  I'm really looking forward to this little adventure and will keep the posts coming. Thank you for all the awesome messages of support and if you're ever in my neck of the woods stop by for a visit. :D
much luv

MADEMOISELLE NOIR: A Tragedy

Hey friends
I'm so excited to show you "Mademoiselle Noir" an animation co-directed by myself and MarieIV for hitRECord.
It all started with an illustration I did based on the classic brother's Grimm story of Rapunzel which inspired the amazing ppeppina to write (and perform) a song for .....but with quite a different twist.

Then the brilliant MarieIv and myself got to direct the hitRECord community to contribute towards this project which MarieIv then animated into this final piece of magic.
HUGE thanks to everyone who contributed! Hope you enjoy!
much luv

Meet Mrs Tiggs

This is Mrs Tiggs, you may recognise her from a couple of my other little illustrations.

She lives on a happy little farm nestled deep within Weeping Willow valley.

Her home is a modest little thatched cottage with thick silver cobwebs framing each and every window.

Mrs Tiggs has 3 woolly sheep, 2 stinky pigs, 1 reliable cow (called Clara) and ducks, chooks and geese galore. ("chooks" are what we call chickens in New Zealand).

Most importantly there's Zebby, he's a scruffy little mongrel and her very best friend.

Mrs Tiggs misses Mr Tiggs very much, everyday in fact ...but she never feels lonely thanks to all of her animal friends who love her very much.

She wakes up before the sun rises every morning and is tucked up in bed again before it sets each evening (with Zebby snuggled at her feet)

Saturday nights are special! that's when she plays her old records and dances around her lounge room until her legs feel like jelly. There's also the sweet smell of her secret recipe home made mulled wine wafting through the air.

So this is Mrs Tiggs, she's not an edgy character nor a particularly exciting one but shes a character nonetheless....and one that I love and hope someone else will too. :)
