Wandering On Elsewhere - Bye For Now (but you can visit me here...)

This blog began as a journal of my time spent living & studying overseas on exchange, and then turned into a kind of living shrine for all the memories I had made in Europe.

Now, having been back for a little over a year & bogged down in my final semester of uni, 
I feel that this blog has served it's purpose. 

For now anyway, until the next big journey (hopefully coming soon, early next year).

While I will still occasionally post here,
I invite you to visit me on my artist's tumblr 
as I post and find my way through my 
Textile Art undergrad degree 
& all that comes after for my artsy career,
or my personal tumblr
where I still remain as lost & wandering as ever, 
dreaming of all the places I want to escape to
& the clothing I would wear.

Links to my other sites can be found in the right hand column for all my techno-challenged friends & family :)

So for now, it is not farewell,
but hopefully see you soon...

Investigation into Drawing Part 2 (2013).

Selected works from the series

'Investigation into Drawing Part 2' 2013.

(Four of a seven part series)

My most recent series, 'Investigation into Drawing Part 2',

is part of an ongoing investigation into exploring what is 'drawing', 

specifically drawing which 

is a kind of wandering into a land of the unknown. 

Drawing which is intuitive and free, 

and is created through a collaboration 

between nature and self.

Each piece begins with a silk organza disc, 

and is drawn in collaboration with 

various plant materials, time & ink.

Only At Night.

On the road.

When night ate day.

Holidays

Jac and Jil

Ah to be on holidays.

The simplicity. The comfort. 

The time to breathe (and to finally return to blog home). 

Hair loose and towel dried. Favourite tee. The chance to stop. 

Sunshine.

Bright Lights.

The bright lights of the Hamburger Dom

 shared with my sister.

Some of my favourite images from my life lived overseas,

still reminiscing a year later.

The Mashup: Double Ds, Jungle Feasts & Wintery Goodness

Tommy ton for Style

A few of my favs -

double denim,

coats of the wrapping & hugging kind

and a touch of the jungle fever.

Wandering Food Memories III.

On rainy days like these

there is nothing better than enjoying a meal 

with friends, cooked by friends.

Maastricht, The Netherlands, 2012.

Danish meatballs & potatoes 

cooked by a Dane in a Dutch kitchen

Liquorice all-sorts.

Self Service magazine

Like a box of maroon, burgundy and red liquorice all sorts.

Thrifting Like A Pro. Girlfriend Mag.

The mag: Girlfriend, June 2013.

The brief: Take a found second hand piece and work it into an outfit. 

The piece: crazy sequin, glitter fest of a top.

Because I love something with a bit of texture, and something that's a bit crazy. Like a little lost 80s disco ball I found this baby hiding amongst the rubble at the local Vinnies.

I present to you my first styling editorial (even if it is only small).

Styling: Me

Photography: Daryl Orillaza

Hair & make up: Kate Lee

Girlfriend magazine, June 2013

Thrifting Like A Pro
