This is my furbaby, Mia. She's a Brown Burmese and literally the best pet Ive EVER owned! She keeps me smiling, knows when Im sad and in need of a cuddle and even plays fetch (better than our whippet!!)
Here she was fighting her new felt teddy (that my Mum had made!) It was a pure fluke that I got her so still in the pic and the composition was perfect! Although sad to say that the teddy didnt last long, and isnt around anymore! haha
I LOVE 50s pinups! I have a somewhat unhealthy obsession with rockabilly, 50s, vintage, Bettie Page and anything that cinches the waist and looks ultra feminine. (I mostly live vicariously through the beauties cos Im not sure I have the skills to pull it off myself! haha)- or the time...or the money to maintain the look!..
I love listening to my walkman while making jewellery..I design & make earrings, bracelets and necklaces!
..
I really enjoy reading comics, drawing & painting.
Im a huge fan of good food, cups of tea & kisses in the sunshine and that feeling of warmth you get when your arm is in the sun while youre driving!
I also love museums, writing in my journal, rainy days, converse all stars, Baileys, porkpies, bubble gum, making my own mix CD's and anything vintage including clothing& jewellery!
..My fave all time band.. (big call I know!)...
'The second stage turbine blade' and 'In keeping secrets of silent earth:3' Oh and the latest addition to complete the saga 'Good Apollo, Im Burning Star IV, Volume One:From Fear Through The Eyes Of Madness'
Seeing them in London December 05 was the major highlight of my recent trip to the UK- their musical skills are phenomenal!..

I would love to collect Blythe dolls- however they are rather hard to come across in Australia!

..
adopt your own virtual pet!

.. Anything by Roald Dahl, he's a favourite childhood author...when I was about 'Matilda's' age.. I read 'Matilda' it was the first novel I ever read! I subscribe to 'JUXTAPOZ' its a wicked 'lowbrow' art magazine from the states.. Im really into pop surrealism at the moment and searching small, smelly comic book stores for something 'different' and inspirational.. The latest place I visited was down Gawler Place.. run by a large woman with a moustache! yeah.. hows THAT for underground! hahaha
Bettie Page- she's one amazing woman and such an inspiration! Too many women with 'real bodies' are dying out!!!! Hail to HIPS! haha .. OMFG! THE POPPLES!!!!!
