listen, do you want to know a secret?
Do you promise not to tell?, whoa oh, oh.
Closer,
Let me whisper in your ear…
The big news of the week?
I’m moving to Brisbane in early September. The reasons are twofold:
One I will simply sum up by saying that I’ve been really unhappy lately; depressed would be an appropriate word for how I’ve been feeling. So I need to make some changes, and moving should resolve most of this discontent.
The other part is about being realistic: I really want to travel to the US and UK next year, possibly even make a permanent move back to the UK, and paying rent in my current abode or in a place on my own in Melbourne is not really allowing me to pay off debts and save for that.
So I’m going to board with my parents in Brisbane to reduce my overheads, repay my debt, save for my trip and, if my parents have any say in it, finally learn to drive!
Over the next two months I need to cull down my belongings, so if you’re in Melbourne* and interested in buying any of my work that I have framed, feel free to email me at propaganda@bronwenhyde.com to find out what I have available and maybe we can negotiate on the price. I have a variety of prints in a variety of sizes and prices.
If you’re in Brisbane and want to know what I have, also mail me as I can arrange delivery in September without the exorbitant shipping costs :D
*You’re welcome to contact me if you’re outside of Melbourne or Brisbane, but shipping costs can be pretty high, you’ve been warned.

Dear Bronwen, I am sorry you have been struggling of late. I hope we can still see your work on the redbubble. I understand moving home will help pay off your debts and get yout o England faster. Its what I had to do at 28 in order to get my ticket and do exactly as you are saying. I think Melbourne has been good for your art though and perhaps like so many people you have the winter blues. YOu have so many friends on redbubble and we hope to keep seeing your amazing art.

thanks billy xx part of it is no doubt winter blues, i have a history of vitamin D deficiency which is a part of that, but there are other factors too. melbourne has definitely been wonderful to me, for the 19 years i’ve lived here (over three stints!) and i still consider myself to be a melbournite. glad i had a chance to meet you and glad you’re doing so well with your art xx it’s not goodbye, just see you in a while :D
