{going to ground}

Where My Heart Is
Where My Heart Is*
Acrylics on canvas
10 x 10 inch

Indications are that I am juggling too many balls, whilst balancing on one leg, whilst standing on a see-saw.  Something's gotta give.

I had been hoping that I could settle back into full time work, in a new job, and maintain all the other parts of my life as if nothing had changed.  Who was I kidding?

So without further ado I'm signing off for a week or two.  I'll be back soon peeps.

*************************************************
*The painting above is showing as part of the 2011 Linden Postcard Show, opening on Saturday 5th February 1 - 5pm, 26 Aclancd Street, St Kilda.

**I've also got work showing in the Red Brick Gallery and Emporium Group Show, and am looking forward to a trip to Ballarat this weekend to attend the opening. {opening night Friday 4th Feb 6 - 8pm, 218a Skipton Street, Ballarat}

***Lastly, I've donated some original work and prints to Chair 14 {former host of the Northern Craft Bonanza} for their upcoming fundraiser to support people affected by the floods in Victoria and QLD.  It's this Friday night 4th Feb from 4pm onwards and includes music, an art auction and other festivities.  Entry is $5.

****Speaking of the Northern Craft Bonanza, when I get a bit more settled I'll be getting it back up and running.  I'm aiming for a first get together sometime in February and a regularly fortnightly catch up from them.  It's also looking like we'll be changing to a Wednesday night.

*****That is all!

  3. Have a good break. I'm coming to the end of mine, I think, and I've really enjoyed the time away! But I've also missed it...

  4. Did I ever tell you about the time I broke the see saw in a children's playground? I wasn't even trying to do something fancy. I really couldn't recommend juggling on one!

    Keep those balls in the air and hope to see you soon. xx
