Catch Up.

Sorry I have'nt posted much lately....Sometimes you get yourself into a bit of a hole and words don't come too easily. We went to see Ben Elton the other night. He was fantastic. Hilarious. A really clever man...nice guy....see what I mean with the words!!...I have caught up with two lovely and talented ladies as well...Judith Brooks, who has started her own blog ...we had a great afternoon and Annie Rawle, who took Brian and I to see her studio after we had a lovely lunch in Freo. Annie also gave me the latest list of Catalyst Workshops. There are a couple I would like to have a go at.

Denton, Amphlett & Elton.

Last night I watched Enough Rope with Andrew Denton. He interviewed Chrissie Amphlett. She is an interesting lady. In her Divinyl days she stomped around the stage in her school girl uniform and I thought she was fantastic...the ultimate wild child...the songs were great too....it was nice to see her again. Ben Elton was on the show too.....he's brilliant....We are going to see his new show next week......Fab!!!

Cheese.

I Love Photoshop.

I have been working on an idea for a new painting. I did a drawing in my notebook then I scanned it into photoshop and played with it. I ended up with this highly detailed piece. Now I am transfering it to a canvas and we shall see what becomes of it...Endless possibilities.....

Pirates.

We went to see "Pirates of the Carribean-Dead Man's Chest."yesterday.....what a hoot....Johnny Depp mincing around the place.....fantastic. The costumes and makeup where brilliant. Bill Nighy as Davy Jones was excellent. I almost expected them to make some kind of reference to The Monkees Davy Jones....heh heh....Great Fun...Johnny Depp...yep...yep...yep!

Earthbound.

Photoshop CS2.

I am really excited. We just bought Photoshop CS2...possibilities are infinite....wooooo hoooo.......Now I'll never get off my pute. heh heh.

Mandarin Design.

I would just like to mention Mandarin Design. It is a great site with cool tips for your blog or web site. I have tried out a few...learning...learning. Our beautiful dog Peppi has been in at the vets today having his bits cut off. We took him in to have his shots the other week and when the vet checked him over she found some lumps in one of his testes ...poor baby....I was a bit worried because he's 10 years old but the vet rang this afternoon and said he's fine....whew.....all day I have caught myself thinking Peppi will be here in a minute....or where's Pep?....I did'nt realise how much he impacted my day......well I knew I was always giving him a pat or cuddle when I saw him....He moves all around the place....sometimes he is upstairs under the bed, sometimes he is outside, sometimes he's in the lounge and others he is in the art room under my easel....I hope he is'nt howling down there at the vets... I can't wait to pick him up tomorrow.

I'm a total moron!

Today a lovely friend of mine invited me to accompany her to the Plastication exhibition that is on at the Convention Center which we had previously discussed attending. Well....Ok....I was supposed to meet her at the entrance at 2 o clock....I leave home about 1...it is pouring with disgusting rain, Hey, I know we need it but, geez....I make it to the Convention center...the car park is full....I leave, drive all the way around a couple of times....try parking in one of those buildings....there is one parking bay and I was'nt going to park in it....built for tricycles....leave the car park....the lady said I did'nt have to pay.....small mercies...drive around some more.....its 2 o clock and I am slightly , well not so slightly, peeved....where am I supposed to park?....if I park too far away I'll have to walk in the rain and of course I dont have an umbrella....I am an idiot.....so guess what ?...I go home.... mumble, mumble, after ringing my friend....well I think she's still my friend.....wonder what the plastic people look like?
