Happy Easter long weekend! It’s been quite the month, what with Mum’s recovery from brain surgery, my mother-in-law’s surgery (both mums had operations in the same week) and Lauren being sick on-and-off all the time. So I guess you could say I’m really looking forward to the 4-day break. Fingers crossed Lauren stays well and
Hello March. This month is off to a rocky start with my mum going in for surgery this weekend. It’s not a big surgery, but it’s on her brain, which is always scary. I wish there was more that I could do to help, but for now it’s a waiting game until the procedure takes
February already, can you believe it? We’re well into the swing of things with work and daycare over here, and sadly also Lauren’s medical appointments. I really didn’t want her to have to undergo more tests this year, but we’ve already had one HARD blood test (how do you explain these things to a 3
Happy new year and oh thank goodness we made it to 2021! To be honest, with a spike in covid cases and new restrictions in Sydney, the start of this year feels much like 2020. 🙁 But I’m hopeful for better days ahead! We had a quiet Christmas and an almost non-existent new year’s eve
And just like that, we’ve reached the end of the year. When the pandemic hit in March, I would have sworn up and down that it’d be the SLOWEST crawl to December. And while some days definitely dragged on, somehow the time still sped by surprisingly fast and now here we are. It’s a strange
November is always a tricky month for me wallpaper-wise because I want to draw all things Christmas, but not everyone’s as keen for the festive season as I am (yes I’m one of those people who’s ready to pull out the tinsel in September). So here’s something pretty to tide us all over until it’s
I’ve got some newwwwwws. For the past month, I’ve been working behind the scenes to turn your favourite illustrations into invitations and greeting cards for Greenvelope! I now have a range of designs that you can send to your friends and family as holiday greetings or invitations for your next big (covid-safe) bash. Best of
Long time followers will know that I’m notoriously bad at coming up with anything spooky for Halloween. And this year is no exception – true to form, I couldn’t think of anything even remotely scary to draw. So instead, here are some mystic moon phases to ring in October. 😀 I’m a bit sad about
The world is still in the midst of a pandemic and those heavy feelings are present all the time, but spring is here and somehow seeing the flowers bloom has managed to cut through even the darkest of days. The evenings are getting longer, the air is balmy and the weather has been spectacular lately.
I know it’s the height of winter, but we had some beautiful sunny days last week and all I could think about was how nice it’ll be to sit outdoors and enjoy the flowers once spring rolls around. Sadly these days, thoughts like that are always followed by ‘what if we’re not allowed to go
There were so many tea puns that ran through my head while I was drawing this. 😀 I’ll spare you the terrible dad jokes, but needless to say, tea is one of my favourite things because it makes me feel warm and cosy, AND because it lends itself to so many bad jokes (or good,
