He is happy. And that is all that matters.

The end of her childhood

 
 
The last few months have been monumental for my eldest child.
 
She has graduated from high school, the last two under stressful circumstances. Received two awards, been accepted into ACU in the young achievers program, before op results were released!, got beautifully frocked up for her formal, and turned 18.
 
I can't believe I have an 18 year old daughter. I have an ADULT child. How did that happen?
 
She is amazing. Her tenacity will get her far in life. She never never gives up.
 
I wonder where she got that from? ;)
 
I love you Lauralei. To the moon and back.

Boy to Man


He is always going to be my first born son. I just have to get my head wrapped around that he is now a young man....

Sunset.. Sunrise... All the same to him

I miss this place so very very much....

 
But my little man taught me a valuable lesson last week. He woke early, came into my room and said "Mum have you seen the sunset? Want to come and look with me?" (Sunset... Sunrise, it's all the same to him. It involves the sun.)

Beauty is everywhere. Sometimes you just need someone to remind you to look for it.

23. Art workshop with a new medium



Ticking another thing of my bucket list. I have started watercolour classes, a medium I have wanted to learn for ages. In a beautiful piece of serendipity a man came into the shop I'm working at looking for something. We got talking and he informed me that he teaches water colour classes, that are just up the road from me, on a Monday, and at a price that can't be beaten!

It's lovely to be using a new medium, and learning a whole lot of fundamentals in the process as well. While I have no desire to be a watercolour landscapist, learning how to manipulate this medium is great. So I will do the exercises for the process, and take what I want, and leave the rest behind. Bit like most things I do in life.

values, washes, techniques and playing

Pictures of you, pictures of me...

 
 
"Pictures of you, pictures of me
Hung upon your wall for the world to see
Pictures of you, pictures of me
Remind us all of what we used to be"
- Pictures of you, The Last Goodnight


I turned 43 yesterday. Birthdays make me nostalgic. On each of my kids birthdays I go through photos of them. Yesterday I decided to do the same for me.
