Almost Exhibition Time....

Well the Castlemaine State Festival ended yesterday and I must say I am feeling a bit sad that the festivities have come to an end. It was lovely to have the streets a buzz... bands playing every night (even if I didn't get to many) and open studios and art galore!

In case you too are feeling at a loss do not fret because Liz and I have an Exhibition opening after Easter. So when your chocolate has settled in your tummy come on down and check out what we have been up to in our studios. Check out www.lizduthie.com she is an amazing illustrator.

In other news....c8 Designs ( Jamie and my New Business) is up and running. We don't have a website as yet but as soon as it is in action I will let you know.

We will be making lamps...some shades will be in the Exhibition. Metal Art Gates, Letter boxes ( I will post a picture of our crazy box) and Sculpture...and plenty of other creations that grow inside our heads. More details to come...
for now we must Ker chunk Ker chunk away in our respective sheds......
I am really excited about this new venture it will combine all things Excellent.
Textiles and Metal, what more could you ask for...

I hope you can make it to Sea of Love...

Finally 4....

Today we celebrated 4 years with our jelly bean..

Finally four! All her friends have turned 4 a while ago, so the anticipation has been brewing. So many fabulous things happen when you are 4. You can do up half your seat belt, eat all your dinner (sometimes) and teach your sister how to do a forward roll!

Happy Birthday. It seems like such a long time ago when I had no idea what I was truly letting myself in for. I have eaten many words in these four years as I take back all the things I thought a parent could do.... I wont bore you with the many passing judgements I thought about what  you should be able to do when you had a child...

And so here I am 4 years later about to have an Exhibition and about to start a small business with my partner.
I have been working to a count down to the opening of the Exhibition. Flyer coming soon.
And more about the business....another day.

The party was great and thanks to all our fabulous friends and their beautiful kids who made today a special number 4.
