My Blog - my fun.
I was inspired by the styling of my holiday studio apartment, and added my
own touches for some travelog photos.
Sometimes photo images become 'Visual poetry'.
Prerequisites for a good holiday: Artist's diary, big notebook for creative writing, laptop,
in paisley pouch of course! Maps and general tourist guides, pencils for drawing.

Bright colour on neutral bedspread. Pattern on pattern.
The message on this notebook started this trip, it's call to new adventures. I bought it on
a girl's day out with my friend CC the last time we were in Newcastle.
A motivational book for creative people, something I had to read.
I saw quite a few things from this brochure, but more left for next time.
The laptop was a necessary but heavy accessory. The TV I couldn't work out, but it had heaps of DVDs. My cereal, snacks, tea and marmalade. Plus you can survive with a tube of Vegemite!
Goods on the animal skin on the trunk.
This notebook held notes of what I researched beforehand. The map
was partly hand-drawn on for the important areas.

Sandy, earthy, beach and coastal textures and palette. I forgot to bring my cap so needed
to buy this cute hat for sun protection, love the shell, and bead strand detail.
The glow of opulent copper. Metal detail.
Natural elements.
Light through a pretty textile.
After the bath.
Faux animal print against marble.
I drew my thank you to the owners, so happy for this experience.
Good sandals, thongs, runners, backpack - check.
The second day we had a big afternoon shower and that night gale like winds.
At this point it looks interesting, trees seen through the deck roof.
Across the road there is a giant Moreton Bay fig tree on the edge of a big park. I picked
this leaf up while I waited for my friend to collect me to visit the galleries of Newcastle

Leaf against perforated cream leather cushion, and also aginst doona pattern.
Arranging the thank you drawing, against different objects as I
finish tidying the apartment for departure.
My jewellery against the animal skin, hand-painted leather bangle, real sea life
specimens set in aqua colour resin earrings. I have sourced my costume jewellery from
op shops, pay pennies for it and love the older or vintage ones more than modern.
