Screenprinting artwork done

Yesterday I managed to do some artwork for screenprinting projects that I have planned with Thea of Thea & Sami. There'll be teatowels and 'sew your own' angels for Christmas. As well as kids tshirts and hopefully bags. Stay tuned!

I haven't done any Christmas cards yet, but Tiel has!

A very talented designer that I admire, Tiel Sievl-Keevers, has done these wonderful Christmas gift tags that are available in her etsy shop. If you haven't been there yet, also take a look at her terrific blog.

The big event

Last weekend was the Mater Dei Race Day. A huge and fabulous fundraiser that I've been on the committee of for over a year.
The marquee was fantastic, with 'bling' trees on every table and fairy lights everywhere, and the crowd joined in the fun with most people wearing black, white and bling.
We made heaps of money to get the school air conditioned and I'm very happy about that. It was the most successful fundraiser I've been associated with.
I'm turning around now to do a presentation for Melbourne Cup day at Platform 9, then at the High Tea for Tanop function in Brisbane on 15th November.
It's a busy time of year.

Cousins

My boys had a great holiday with their cousins recently. These are sincere smiles!

Never overdress

Sophia's idea of an appropriate outfit.
I love it.

Mural at hospital

This is the mural I completed LATE wed night - it's based on the Quentin Blake picture book, "Patrick", which I love - and is in the children's room at the Day Oncology Ward at the Toowoomba Base Hospital. I really enjoyed doing it and have 4 more planned for various rooms at the hospital.

This one features an 'amazing tree' and I hope the kids who have to lie on the bed for chemo, can lose themselves counting the cupcakes and other ridiculous things that are on the tree, and forget where they are, even for a moment.

The chicken is a little addition to a framed painting that is on the wall at the end of the bed.
