Finders Keepers feature of my creative space

By Anonymous -













It was thrilling to stumble upon the interview and images of my studio on the Finders Keepers blog today. The photographs were taken by the lovely Mishy Lane. It is interesting to see what catches someone else's attention in my organized chaos. I love the shots Mishy took of my pin boards - there is one with an old polaroid of me as a little girl holding my big fat Persian cat- Sweet William, our namesake and another faded photograph of Shelley (my sister) and I on the beach when we are little with a South African stamp pinned onto it. The black ink drawings on brown paper are ongoing projects from art class and there are little messy piles of our paper doll Camille all over the place. They are little details but they very much make up what my studio is all about. You can read the full interview here if you like. Have a nice day everyone. P x

It looks like a lovely, creative home. I love homes stamped with their owner's personality. xxx

I had Contry Style Magazine come and do a shoot at my home in May... a few months later and the issue finally hits the shelves. Yay! I am very pleased with the way it all turned out. Sharyn Cairns took some wonderful photographs and captured our home beautifully, while Virginia Imhoff wrote a lovely piece about all the bits and pieces in our home and how much we have traveled etc. The ' where there's tea there's hope ' print got a big feature in the shoot and on the editors letter, which we are so pleased about and the orders have already coming rolling in. Ooooh I must say it is quite a thrill to see my own home and work in print, I am most flattered!
