MISO AT WORK

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to purchase a drawing by one of my favorite artists Miso, I have already posted about Miso here as I am such an admirer of her drawings and street art.
Then at the same time by sheer coincidence whilst reading a post on this blog I discovered the beautiful photography of  Olga Bennett and whilst looking at her site I came across a photo shoot that Olga had done in Miso's Melbourne studio (which she shares with her equally talented partner Ghostpatrol).
I could so imagine them together, two artists at work, Miso drawing, Olga taking photographs ... both so relaxed and cool, Miso said it was so lovely having Olga there for the afternoon just hanging out, talking and taking photographs .... and what wonderful photographs they are !!!  






















I would have so loved to have visited the studio (unfortunately I was not in Melbourne so I had to settle for my drawing being posted) ... I love knowing my art purchase comes from such an inspiring, passionate place, and such a talented and lovely artist .... Miso was an absolute pleasure to deal with, and thanks Olga for giving me a chance to see Miso's studio.
Then another coincidence, the next day after I received my drawing I switched on the arts channel and this ABC documentary of Miso and Ghostpatrol just happened to be showing .... funny how the stars align !!!
I will show you my Miso drawing and some more of Miso's work next week.
Olga Bennett also has a great blog so be sure to check that out too.

SIMPLE CLASSICS

Some looks never go out of style ... I love fashion, looking at it, reading about it, seeing other people wearing it, but at the end of the day simple "lifestyle" clothes always seem to win out  ..... easy, dependable and classic .......
 
 
 





..... and a few great accessories never go astray




 
.... as well as a great print dress (well for me anyway !!!)

WEEKEND

We visited our little foal today, she is growing up so fast and becoming very tame, she will feed out of your hand and even lets my mum give her cuddles .... we finally decided on the name "Edie" for her, we have always had a soft spot for Little Edie from Grey Gardens and also  
Edie Sedgwick ... she really is the most adorable foal.






My mum also has some other new additions, some little baby birds which she breeds and hand rears .... such funny little things, they are spoon fed and already so tame .... 



this is the dad of one of them .... 

....  and this is mum of the other two ... so they will become a lot more attractive with age.

We're off to see this play tomorrow night at Sydney Theatre Company .... it stars Ewan Leslie who I mentioned at the end of this post .... looking forward to watching him again, has anyone seen it yet ?

Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
