Studio Assistant.

Scout is looking less than impressed with my choice of subject matter.


Taupo, Anzac Weekend

This is a quick sketch of the house at Taupo where I have been lucky enough to have many a fine holiday. It is looking back at the house was a dark moonless night on Anzac weekend. The family is inside and the fire is lit. Cozy.

Dexter.

My brother told me the tale of two elderly people who shared a great old pile somewhere in England. They used to communicate with each other via pug - they would write notes and tuck it in their pugs tightly coiled tail and send him on this way.
I met Dexter outside my house one day. He's about 100 in dog years but I think he would still make a fine messenger.

I met this old couple outside a bike shop in Fitzroy. They look like they have been together forever.

I met this handsome young gent around the corner a few months ago. Although I am a confirmed cat lady there is something so very characterful about dogs. This character is often reflected in the names that their owners bestow on them.
