Lego is the abbreviation of two Danish words, “Leg godt,” meaning “play well.” Certainly can’t argue with that when it comes to most well-known product to come out of their factories since they launched the business in 1932. It’s synonymous with childhood. It’s a brand, and product, that is known, loved, and respected the world […]

The “Swell of the Decade” has been hitting Western Australia since Friday, thanks to a huge storm 2,000km off the coast. 5m (16ft) waves with 16 second swell periods….. Up to 9-12m (30-40ft) waves. The “Ride of a Lifetime.” So what would Bodhi do? He’d be right in there! Wouldn’t miss it for anything of […]

One Friday in late May, I decided we were buying ourselves some new LEGO. Things have been hard of late, & we needed something light & silly to break the gloom. It was money that we really couldn’t afford to spare, but it was justifiable in the circumstances. The LEGO that my brother & I […]

As promised, now that the gallery exhibition is over, here are the brave words of one of my models. Miss Pixie flew out from Sydney for me in 2012, lugged costumes with her, & spent 4 hours at a hairdresser to alter her hair for a character.  We had a very full-on week of sewing, […]

I thought I would show you my setup. It’s pretty simple.  It’s not a huge warehouse full of negative space, but it’s set up in a way that is nice & modular.  Like my sofa.  Modular is cool.  [snerk]  I have a Tetris Studio. The main wall has a 3m wide backdrop.  The photo above […]

Awesome things happen when you cross Social Media with a close knit community who act more like a small town than a suburb. Yesterday, I posted that we were greatly missing our travel mascot, Sharlene the Emu. Last night, we had her back! I posted a photo of her to Instagram, with where we last […]

Many of you may have seen Sharlene the Emu pop up in my photos before. She’s missing & we’re really hoping that whomever currently has her will read this & bring her home.  We’ll even come & collect her – we don’t mind!  We just want her back. To any of you who were out […]

It’s no secret that I’m a massive Whovian. What you might not know is that I have a full size, Tom Baker era, replica TARDIS. She is not the same Sexy that was hired for my birthday last year – that one was 3/4 sized, modelled on a much later version & was in terrible […]

So, this book that I’m doing on what shoes say about a person & what drives a person’s shoe choice…. There’s more than one way to take part. You can model, fill out a questionnaire or three, or you can submit anecdotes. Or all of the above. Anecdotes can be anything really.  It could be a […]

Contemplation

Lately it seems almost everyone I know has at least one pair of “Chucks” or a fake. I still have my first pair of One Stars that my dad bought me for my 14th birthday (a long time ago) because the shop stuffed up & ordered them instead of the All Stars I’d wanted. I still have […]

Back at Dave’s, we opened up the sliding doors into his dining room.  He’d already moved the dining table & side tables out of the room in preparation.  We rolled out the underlay, but not without having a little fun.  After all, we’re not only laying plastic grass inside the house, but we’re doing so […]

There’s been an ongoing joke amongst my friends & colleagues that I see the world through my lens.  Never before have I actually seen exactly what they meant. I know that everyone sees things differently… but it’s a rare thing when we actually get to see how differently.   When I look at something, I unconsciously […]

By now, many of you know about my Shoe Project.  Let’s face it; meeting me & not knowing about it within moments is pretty difficult.  Even strangers on the street with shoes that catch my eye find out about it very quickly as I ask them to pose their clad feet for a photo. Anyway.  […]
