Have you ever felt the urge to enthusiastically hug someone or something with a running start? This is what is known as a Tacklehug and it is exactly this response I hope to evoke in you every time you see a one of my individually designed products.
I also offer private art classes to students aged between 4-13 years of age (if you are in the Adelaide area!)

bed bugs

After searching around for a while for a quilt cover for my son's bed, I decided to attempt to make one for him.  My sister made some pyjamas for him using the same spotty material for the shorts so he now has pyjamas which match his quilt cover!  Charlie helped me screenprint the "bed bugs" onto the base material.

Playgroup smiles

My little boy Sammy, not so little any more, I loved this photo of him so much that I attempted to turn it into a painting.  I'm quite happy with it even though I never feel any of my paintings are ever finished.
It's currently hanging in the boy's play area, which is quite appropriate as the photo was taken at our wonderful playgroup in Adelaide 1 and a half years ago.
Time flys!

Harriett and Jemima

These two little ladies have begun a small obsession. I began painting these dolls as little gifts for friend's children and now I can't seem to stop!  I love watching my sons play with these dolls and using their imaginations to invent "worlds" for their characters.
Harriett and Jemima went to a loving home and chose their favourite book and toy bunny to take with them!
