And now I’m another year older! Next year is a BIG one so I’d better get cracking and paint as much as I can for as long as I can do it, although with my mother being 91 and still bright and alert I guess I have good genes and, hopefully, a lot of years left in which to create!!!

It’s been four months since I last wrote my ‘blog’. I do not know where the time goes. And I haven’t been lazing around doing nothing, except on those 40ºC days and above when all one can do is sit and melt because even the artistic brain doesn’t function! Fortunately, this summer we haven’t had a lot of those. We’ve had some of the most amazing rain, ‘though, and for the first time in the 16 years I’ve lived in the Swan Valley, the river and tributaries have burst their banks and vineyards and paddocks have been flooded -incredible sights.

Well, I think September was the most exhausting month I’ve ever had to endure! I’m not sure how I managed to negotiate it and emerge at the other end.

Which is why I haven’t had much to write about for this ‘blog’.

Yes, since my last ‘blog’ I spent several unhappy weeks really in the doldrums, particularly with my art. I just couldn’t be bothered. What was the point, anyway? I couldn’t find anything to interest me and was easily distracted from even the thought of plodding over to the Studio.

I was very small when I began to draw so I can’t remember when it all started. I do remember that as a little girl my bedroom walls were covered in my drawings of horses and animals and that I wrote my own stories and illustrated them - I still have some of them today. Read more…
