Audrey
I must apologise for the radio silence in recent months. James and I have been hard at work cooking up a baby and have been so insanely busy since she arrived we still haven’t announced it properly. Of all the artworks we’ve made together, she is the one we are most proud of.

the reason all my jeans are too tight
It’s been a busy year.
Last summer I moved in with my boyfriend whom I met on RedBubble. In May we got engaged, ten weeks later we got married, spent a month traveling around Italy and now James and I are thrilled to be expecting our first child in July. So if you were wondering why I haven’t been posting any photos lately, it’s because we’ve been a little preoccupied.

Choose the RedBubble Home Page
You may not know this, but you (yes, you) can choose what artwork is featured on the RedBubble Home Page.
It’s actually quite easy. All you have to do is head on over to this forum thread and share eight images you think are home page worthy, and which fit the criteria.
I’d keep talking but it really is that easy.
…and if you like art, it’s also lots of fun.
what did I miss?
Over the last 5 weeks I got married, meandered the streets of Venice in a big straw hat, saw the opera in Verona, lay on the rocky beaches of Monterosso, ate and drank through Tuscany, climbed the leaning tower of Pisa, and put the SLR away to enjoy Rome through my eyes, not my lens. Then we came home, went on a hot air balloon ride over Melbourne, tried to sleep when it was dark and stay awake w…
wedding bells and all things mushy
The day I added my first image to RedBubble, some lovely people took a moment out of their lives to comment and tell me how much they liked it. They could see past my blurry focus and amateur composition and found something genuine and kind to say. When I realised that the whole community was like this, so giving of their praise and thoughts, I was instantly hooked.
Before long, commenting back a…
Unexpected Pregnancy
Nature is a funny thing. You go to the aquarium and buy 12 female fish. You don’t give them names because, lets get serious here – it’s pretty damn hard to tell plain orange fish apart.
So you leave the girls unattended for a while without any parental supervision and then… You wake up one morning to find several baby fish swimming around the tank just beckoning the bigger…
International Hair Show
Yesterday I tagged along to the International Hairstylists Society hair show which is one of the largest hair shows in the country. Having never been to one before, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but “complete and utter chaos” comes fairly close.
Many of the stylists and models had been awake and preparing since 4am that morning for a 12pm show. Caffeine and sugary sweets were s…
making up tunes in the afternoon
I can’t work out where this came from, but all afternoon I’ve been singing a little rhyme that I managed to think up and is now solidly stuck in my head.
A is for apple
B is for bear
C is for cucumber
D is for dare
Trust me, after repeating this 194366 times, it becomes far less cute, and a lot more annoying. I need another song. Help!
make art, not waste
Today I celebrate a little milestone – 20 coffee cups saved from landfill.
Not too long ago, I became very aware of the huge quantities of coffee the RedBubble office consumes. (The internet never sleeps and neither shall we!)
I probably should have been concerned about the adrenalin pumping heart tremor causing effects of caffeine, but instead I set off on a personal crusade to reduce the …
just the latest
I changed my avatar…
…started sharing links to inspirational artworks via facebook…
…and fell in love with some talented artists
Now I must be off, I have some swooning to do
