A whimsical wonderland, now split into 1,000 pieces and designed to get lost in. So eager beaver keen to announce my collab with the fabulous team at . Tiny ladders, floating snow-speckled hills and cosy-as cottages make up Christmas Island.

Designed for medical professionals. Modelled today by a very cooperative flat surface. Still a pinch-me moment to see my big-nod to a summery Australian christmas printed on Scrub ‘Em Up with Love scrubs. A festive fit indeed!

The only way you could ever make me love beige. A good home-baked with love, vanilla sponge cake.

December is just sneaking around the corner (I can tell, because my to-do list is a Mount Everest of tasks). Which means, baking season is here! Gingerbread gangs, extra lollies for the rooftops, pav + trifle on repeat. Art supplies to the side, while I get the wooden spoon and whisk out for some creativity in the kitchen.

These big white screechy guys are the kings of our backyard lately. Nibbling at all of our trees and making a fantastic mess. This guys got his corporate blue crew socks on. Because clearly, he means business.

Throw me into the Pacific, cover me in stripes, and call me Nemo. Because I am fishing for opportunities to dive into swim season. Not so many beach swim opportunities in my part of the world. So I'm stuck to externalising my fantasies through illustration. Fairy-floss colour skies, lightly lapping waves over lush coral floors. Take me awaaaay.

Halloween-season fun but from a gentler POV. A little bit whimsical. A lot of warm, cosy and cute. And definitely friendship goal vibes. One for the gourds and the girls - the kind who glow from within. Happy Halloween everyone! 🎃👻✨

Forecast: suddenly summer with a red-hot chance of picnics. Lamington-crumb fingers, drippy Paddle Pops, tubs of cut fruit and something sweet to sip. Quaffable chaos. Can’t wait.

A message for the next-gen of girls. Make it colossal. Design your dreams so big, so wild, so out-of-pocket that they take you interstellar.

Some projects just make your heart happy-proud. My Wattle & Wonder print was dreamt up to capture all the warmth, whimsy and wattle-scented nostalgia of an Australian summer. Now it’s part of x ’s new Christmas scrub collection!

Forever grateful to see my illustrations out in the wild, brightening someone’s day (and hopefully, shift).

Veggie-patch whimsy: forage-happy flowers, trussed tomatoes ready to pick, a rooster for a bestie and bees on shift. The kind of patch where childhood memories grow.

And that’s October school holidays wrapped.

We stayed in (a stay-cation, if you will). We certainly made mess (send in the glitter control crew, please and thanks). We made many memories.

Once we’ve cleared the copious snack platters, packed away the pool, re-sorted the jumbled up board games pieces and washed all the sheets from the cubby forts - it’s back to routine. Then, back to the studio. Keen to get kicking on!
