  I wonder what photo opportunities are available right at this moment? Perhaps a close up of a puddle being pummelled by rain drops – the cliché black and white photo of a woman with a red umbrella (I ask you – how often do you see a woman with a red umbrella??)....a close-up of bright coloured gumboots......people dashing for shelter (black and white)......kids in rain coats ...with arms outstretched…..rain drops dripping off a branch on a tree.....with a blurred background of a church…...woollen gloved hands wrapped around a hot cup of coffee.........then I come back to reality after this little day dream and realise that I’m sitting at my desk at work – unable to capture any of these photos….so for now I’ll just keep on imagining….............

  Wind The wind is a pervert, / Playfully tugging at girls skirts, / Reaching down peoples tops, / And in a frenzy whipping up the leaves / Into a revolt, then sending them to mischief. / Then he stops, as if tired from playing, / Sulking like a disobedient dog when confronted. / The trees stop swaying and the leaves stop swirling, / And the world sighs with relief, / Then with an insolent smile he starts again. / He picks up exactly where he left off. / Hurling dirt, twigs and leaves at passers by. / Blowing raspberries from the heavens. / He invites his friends to join him, / To wreak havoc on the world, Thunder and Lightning. / Oh yes the wind is a pervert, / Toying with the skirts of passers by. / Then the worlds had enough. / He reaches out and hits the winds rear end, / Sending the wind running in terror followed by his friends. by Kirsten Brown

  :) we are still surrounded by miles of red sand here..but this morning , it is wet red sand! last night there were showers, adding up to just over 7 mm rain. Much needed, and ,hopefully it means there will be SOME green appearing soon :) ‘tis only a drop in the bucket, but it’s OUR drop, and valuable for all that. Rainwater tanks for drinking are now full again, and any small green things which sprang into life after the last little rain some weeks back, will now have something to keep them alive :)

• Top-end climate and seasons...

  After many months of the land baking in extreme heat, the land being parched of all it’s moisture – every plant and animal is pushed to it’s limits of existance in this volatile climatic region.But like all seasons, they slowly change and the first showers and storms begin to form – isolated and somewhat benign in nature at first. Though this soon changes as the build up season gets into full swing and the heat and humidity is at it’s peak. The thunderstorms become more frequent and sometimes more violent and often dumping very heavy rainfall in short periods with cooler refreshing outflow winds temporarily providing relief from the stiffling heat and humidity…though once the storm clears and the sun returns the added moisture at ground levels sends the humidity skyrocketing again. / Wetlands begin to become rejuvinated remarkebly quickly again as all plants and animals look to make the most of this high speed growing and breeding season before the dry returns. Before it does though is the all mighty wet season with daily downpours, winds and little sunshine… This leaves the vast wetlands of the top end once again in full splendour of the annual floods. Access becomes very limited but what a majestic sight it is. This dramatic climate dries as quickly as it explodes and once again the top end will experience many months of cloudless skies as the cycle continues. take a glance at my relevant photograph that inspired me writing this piece… / http://www.redbubble.com/mybubble/works/edit_image/22722

  CATALOGUE OF THE OLDEST PAGE OF MY BUBBLE WRITING LIST Hi to all my watchers and a big hello to anyone new to my bubble! :O) I just realised I have HEAPS of writing on here lol and my really good stuff is waaaaaaaay up the back and being ignored and neglected <( – So I decided to send you all looking at it again :O) These are my Page Six works { Quick read them before they become page 7 works lol :O)} The first piece I posted was / Oralist / This is the first poem I ever read out in public :O) SCARY stuff! Considering I’d never considered myself a poet in any way :O) but then what is an oralist but someone who communicates by mouth – and words do come forth from my mouth at an alarming pace :O) What’s worse is they are faster in my brain! <$ My Beast / Is proudly about my writing addiction and the glorious tool that is my PC :O) Mountain Mists / Is about my love of the Victorian High Country Fragile / Autobiographical poem about how I found myself Growth Gap / The first unconscious poem I wrote when dealing with seeing my children after not On the Wings of Our Love / The first RB art inspired poem, it was just the focus I needed to write of my love Paying Dues / A comical piece about the price I pay, have paid to be the writer I am Frank / My first serious poem ever written and read out Plastic Pearl / Another poem depicting the cheekiness I think about before I answer honestly Addicted / Like My Beast this describes my love affair with words and writing! What to Do / I wrote this prose piece at school for an essay on “What did I want to be when I grew up!” I still say “Old” Going Home / I wrote this for my man “Skik”:http://www.redbubble.com/people/skik the blurb will tell you how Confirmation / A day dream at the letterbox – ah if only! These last four are from my first novel “The Daintree Daughters” a massive thing over 120,000 words long! There are two journal entries explaining it better Author’s Note & Synopsis. This First paragraphs was the first thing of my writing I ever showed / read out to anyone since the only play I wrote back my first Secondary School year. 36 years ago! [Man! I’m old! <( lol] / First Paragraphs They are unconsciously written abstract prose passages. I was compelled to write one for the beginning of each section or book and after it is as if each unconsciously dictates the flavour of the corresponding book that followed. These next three are my three heroines views on the last scene of their individual parts. You choose which sister you wish to read first. [659w] Mandy has found out her man has done stuff behind her back and Calamity Jane style gone riding in to sort it out! [1381w] Molly has been touring the Victorian Gold fields in the company of the man she had slowly come to realise was responsible for their father’s death and the demise of her mother and sisters and herself. ever the affectionate one she has eyes for a few of the men crossing her path. Poor sensible Mary [1098w] has had to suffer the most. Married out of duty to a man who turns into a crazed madman she has been locked up and slowly forced to loose her mind. Although now safely hidden from her husband by the doctor for her own health her view on the world has become a little detatched. The action takes place in and around the doctor’s house where Mary is upstairs, Molly is down stairs with her sister’s in-laws the Hamilton’s and the town’s doctor, Grant, and the doctor’s assistant, Jack, and Mandy’s estranged intended Matt, and his assistant, George. Well these are my old pieces. The first pagers of my Bubble Writing list. Check them out on a rainy afternoon when the bubble is slow and there’s not much else to do! – like today in Melbourne! lol :O) Enjoy ! :O)

• How Not To Handle A Wet Canvas

  I’m up at this early hour first off because of some inconsiderate idiot that called me at 3:30 a.m. / Sleep is hard enough when one has insomnia, so when you do find slumberland you take it….gladly. Not only did this person call once, but I was lucky to go back to sleep right away which is very unusual and what happens? They called again. This is why I don’t own guns. ( just kidding ) Okay so yesterday I was outside painting. Two canvases, each one 3 feet by 4 feet. I’ll talk more about the process maybe later when I upload them. But I want to talk about handling larger pieces of canvas. Always have someone help you. Both pieces were laying on the ground drying in the afternoon sun, I used a gloss enamel this time for a different affect…one piece I rather like the other, I’m quite disappointed in, maybe I can go over it and salvage the canvas – we’ll see. Anyway it’s getting late, the paint still isn’t dry, they were calling for rain. I didn’t want to leave them outside all night long so I thought I’d bring them in, put them in my basement, someplace safe where the cats won’t walk on them, although little cat paw prints may have been a good idea. These pieces were heavy because of the amount of paint on them. / Mr. macho guy here decides he’s going to do it himself one piece at a time. The piece I liked best I took down first. It went well. I placed it in a safe and secure area, come to think about it, it might even be dry by now. The second piece had far too much paint on it and I should have just left it to dry where it was, but Noooooooooooooo ! I had to bring that one down too. In the process I rubbed my hair up against the painting. At this point I had so many colourful shades of paint in my hair – how nice! After I place that one in a secure place I decide to wash my hair and get the paint out. / Shampoo ….HA ! / doesn’t work with enamel. / After my hair dried it felt like super glue every where, there would be no way possible to drag a comb or brush through that. So I’m thinking…what could take that paint out of my hair? The proverbial light bulb goes off – paint thinner I grab a container of paint thinner, lean over the tub, pour it all over my head and scrub it in. The paint that was stuck in my hair came out easily…Oh good i thought. Then I got a bit of thinner in my left eye, and my scalp was starting to burn. / Back to the tub again. Wash my hair again, flush out the eye, shampoo. Well to make a long story shorter than it already is everything’s okay except for the one painting I don’t like. So next time you have a large piece of canvas and are outdoors, or are planning on moving it while the paint is wet, have someone help you. / But I’m sure a normal person would already know this Bear

  Some of you had to work this long weekend, like I usually do (but didn’t!!!!!), but for the rest of you that had Saturday’s Drawing Day to draw, Sunday to relax and Monday to hang out anywhere you like, I hope it you all had fun! I know we did! My son and I went to the beach yesterday. It was cold, slightly windy and wet…. but only wet from the knees down (for me… my son sat in the water fully clothed!!). The water wasn’t cold surprisingly. I thought it’d be freezing. I know people say that the water is warmer in Winter than it is in Summer, but I’ve never really believed them until now. Maybe it’s cos we’re cold already!! Next time I’ll be rolling my jeans up!!! I only took a few hundred photos… you know the usual… sandcastle, sky, birds, clouds, sea, waves, sand, then all again including my child!!! This afternoon or tonight I’ll upload one or two. After I’ve done my homework for tafe. Question Why is it that on weekends, especially long weekends, kids wake up early every day. Then on the day they have to go back to school, they sleep late? Practicing being a teenager do you think? And mine’s only 9 years old (10 next month). ;D

  blowing a gale here in Sydney. branches and trees down everywhere. grey, bleak windswept water on the bay. finished painting Forresters Beach yesterday and it looks beautiful. it’s very brown & simple compared to most of my work but i’m trying to loosen up and pare down. i had letters from people who’d bought my calendars for years, this year who told me how dissapointed they were that i had changed so much but i had to write back and tell them that some people need to change to grow & improve….as an artist if you never change, experiment and dabble in or challenge your self to try other ways of expressing yourslef, you will stagnate. I NEED to constantly evolve and feel like i’m pushing myself to feel good about my work. When in the past i’ve had to do the same ol’ same ‘ol thing day after day i get depressed, slow and hate what i’m doing. / Anyhow, i might lose fans along the way but at least i’m enjoying what i do. Damien (red bubble)said he’d like to see me go outside my boundaries, which i think i do do…but yesterday keeping that in mind when talking to a client I’ve agreed to do a series of vintage style posters about sports….rugby, cricket etc…..and I hate those sports…the sound (drone) of cricket, rugby, swimming, tennis…et al just puts me to sleep. I don’t mind particpating in sports but watching it for hours on end on TV is a mostly male thing which i’‘ve never quite “gotten”. So, there it is, i’ve accepted the challenge. This weekend i’ll try to upload some of my cycling imagery…which is again outside my boundaries and i’ve done well over 40 vintage and modern interpretations. The mod ones are pretty funny, make me pee myself anyway! I write down pages of funny stuff to do…but when i explain them to hubby or friends they all look at me in that raised eyebrow way (what have you been on?). / This morning went up to the inddor pool and swam which was really nice. The outddor pool has been requiring more & more bravery to just get in. So, accepted it was winter and yes, i can go to beautiful heated pool. This Sunday is the Soft Sand race on Manly which is going to test my bravery as well as crap weather is forecast and they’ve sent an email saying they’re building 4 big sand hills along the beach and you have to run up and over the hills each lap. Last year was only 2 and that was hard as the sand is really mushy. If it’s raining and cold as well…..sounds like fun, eh? What a ridiculous masochist i am. Think i’ll blame my friend Dave for this one. / Just have to beat him. Why do we do it? It’s for the big breakfast afterwards and i’ll have a REAL coffee….yeah!

  Hi all. Back from my weekend away dragonboating. Lousy weather did not dampen our willingness to try. Got two third placings and into the final but were glad to bow out then as the conditions were deteriorating. Had a great catch up with many other Dragonboat paddlers as well as Dragonsabreast members. / Team spirit was alive and well in Port Macquarie this long weekend. / Great way for women to prove cancer can’t beat them. / Now back to bubbling (nice and warm & dry).

  I am new to all this and thought I would never enter this world. I must always remember to never say never. I am happy with my efforts today and the images I am sharing, I am creating a theme which will follow tonality, size, format and no image has been crop just played with in photoshop. Now I don’t know if others read this blog and if you are right now, have a great day.

  Although my stomach normally turns and I huff with disbelief when I see Christmas stuff in the shops in September or something, I’m actually full of the holiday cheer early this year. / I don’t really know why, probably partly because we’ve had a bit of a crap summer and because it’s got so cold so quickly, it seems like winter is upon us without warning. Just wet for months and then really bloody cold, so yes i’m definately looking forward to christmas. / I’ve found that i’ve been favouriting a lot of christmas artwork etc.. so I’ve made my first order for the season, including some of my own. / Roll on Chrimbo, bit naughty really because i’m not religious at all, just want an excuse to drink too much and eat chocolate log and trifle.

  We’ve just come to the end of a long dry period, then a cyclone hit the upper north island so everyone is having their turn at getting wet as the weather goes down the country! / Around lunch time today I was driving behind a tanker, trying not to go too fast in the rain…. so was happily cruising along behind him when he went round a corner at what seemed too sharp an angle to be following the road (ie he looked like he’d swerved off into the bushes). Next thing I know a car spins across the road and ends up facing the opposite direction from which it came, smoke all over the place. I stopped and ran over to the car – it was caved in on the drivers side and the windscreen basically didn’t exist any more… the driver was an older lady, but no passengers, thank God. She was groaning but not really conscious and very much trapped in the car, bleeding. If you’re the praying sort, lease pray for her (even if you’re not, please do it anyway) – the fire service and ambulance were still working to get her out when I left, about half an hour after they arrived. The car was pretty caved in….. and she had head injuries… / The tanker driver had a bloody nose and was a bit shaken, but ok. / The police, ambulance and fire service did an amazing job, so thankful for them and the job they do!! / So surreal to be sitting in an office just a little while later…. Poor lady, and her family…. Things will change forever for them now. One seconds inattention, bad conditions…. and that’s it. Jess.

  The weather was awful today. Wet and gloomy. Just the type of day to photograph the Victorian canals that criss cross Birmingham. I asked my son Peter to accompany me and I took some photographs while he took some video. The lighting lent itself to the atmosphere of the bridges and tunnels we were walking. There were a few hardy souls out walking and cycling, but not too many. I hope you like the pictures. We’re going to dry out now.
