If you can’t be nice, Bea Sweet?

I am so sorry about that heading. No I’m not, I couldn’t think of another title! What isn’t awful and groan inducing are these magnificent photos I found by way of Lauren this morning. Bea Sweet is a UK make up artist who is fantastically talented. Sweet also works as a model, and I really…

Detail oriented

I took a bunch of photos at Mt Coot-tha Botanical Gardens the other week and most of the photos I took were of details. You might have noticed, but I am a fan of finely detailed things. I thought I’d post some of these just in case you’re inspired by details in nature too.

Whimsy boxing

You might have noticed lately but my posting is all over the place, and lots of the regular stuff hasn’t been so regular. I haven’t been feeling very well and so today Nick took me out for a change of scenery. Brisbane is lucky to have lots of gorgeous parks, and one of the most…

Friday Fance: as yet unnamed

This is part of a installation work by Finnish artist Johnna Pohjalainen. When I first saw this picture I did a double take because the scale confused me…

Let’s go to the art gallery!

Yesterday I went to the opening of the Departure exhibit at Redland Art Gallery. My friend Kate O’Brien was one of the exhibiting photographers so I had to go check it out and provide moral support! See more photos after the cut…

Werq it out

I was mucking around the other day with cloning myself and here is the result of that. I think we all need to tell ourselves to get out there and werq it at some stage!! What’s funny about this picture? No hair or make up done, and a completely hilarious outfit consisting of things I’d…

Friday Fance: Butterflies & absinthe

This photograph of Edwardian actress Phyllis Monkman is breathtakingly beautiful. I wish I had a costume like that to muck around in! I’m not a huge ice cream fan, but I adore how this has been displayed. The flavours include: black sesame, lanvender, melon, sweet adzuki bean, green tea and miso. Photo by M Harrison.…
