Semi-Permanent showbags

Today I volunteered to pack swag for Semi-Permanent, and we were done in super record time. See, we were moving like ninjas, my phone/camera couldn’t catch up :P I was excited to see my drawing in the book! It started raining as I was waiting for Nick to pick me up so my book got…

My photos from Connect Four: Play

Last night I spent about three hours drawing at this table with the lovely Anna, Shannon and Renee at Connect Four: Play. Anna was writing haikus; Shannon and Renee were doing incredible portraits for people; and I was doodling on brown paper bags! Donations for the drawings and haikus and proceeds from the event went…

The Cupcakening

Today I went to a cupcake picnic, organised by the lovely @shique! We got to sample one from The Cupcake Parlour and another from Poppy Cakes. The cupcake I had from The Cupcake Parlour was a vanilla with this blobby blue icing, I found the cupcake to be amazing and moist but the icing was…

Come see me at Connect Four: Play

On March 28 I’ll be one of the “artists on demand” at the Connect Four art party in the Valley. From 8 – 10pm I’ll be doodling for donations for Backbone Youth Arts, and you can also see some of my drawings in the multimedia art gallery. RSVP at the facebook event page if you’re…

Brisbane Twestival debriefing!

First order of business, this Valentine’s Day crap. Have at you with this vaguely insulting “e-card”! I made it especially for you. Nick took me to the Game On exhibit at the State Library today and then we had burgers. I think there’s something for everyone in that date! Brisbane Twestival from Natalie Perkins on…

The Bearded Lady of Brussels

Now, I told a big old story about how we never had brussels sprouts when I was a kid, because Dad couldn’t stand the smell of them, and then the stupid back end logged me out and I lost the tome that I had written, boo. The upshot of it all was that I’m horrid…

Brisbane Twestival, why you should come

I’m proud and happy to support and contribute to the Brisbane Twestival, part of the worldwide Twestival celebrations raising money for charity: water. It’s being put on by twitter users all around the world, with a budget of approximately $0, sponsored by a bunch of awesome websites and businesses. I drew up this piece especially…

Brisbane nocleanfeed rally

Today Nick and I went to the nocleanfeed rally in Brisbane because we feel very strongly about censorship and “The Great Firewall of Australia”. Our one year old government (that we voted for!) is proposing to limit our access to information online in a vain attempt to put a stop to paedophilia. This plan will…

Kate O’Brien photography

I am so lucky to have such gorgeous and talented friends! This photo is by Kate O’Brien and my friend Jilly is also the model! Erin Gallienne did hair and make up, and while I don’t know her, she’s pretty damned gifted too! I get really excited about some of the stuff that is coming…
