White Rabbit-Late

(graphite stamps and ink pad with sealing wax from the Drawing Studio)

well, i suppose i should put up some pictures from Duende. the whole thing was a real trip... even we thought it was weird. somehow, just at the last moment, everything just sort of fell into place and it all made sense in its own, strange and mysterious way.
eventually, we'll set up a website for the Duende Project with more pictures and some probably rather vague abstracts and other writings. but thats later... shanti shanti... i only have about ten thousand other things i have to do first.
so to the few people who read this, stay tuned! i'm really going to make an effort to write on here more!

oh yeah... my blog...


hello!
i am in India.
i have been here for a while....
i really like it...
what else can i tell you? ah... maybe you'll all just have to wait for me to get home so i can tell you stories with my hands... stories with no hand gestures are just wrong... :)

this little guy is from the book i am writting here. at first i thought he was a baddie, but now i think maybe he is a goodie....

Armanious & Armanious


i draw like my father...

bling bling


if i dont finish sewing the lining (in quilted chinese brocade covered in red dragons... hehehhe) of my fur coat soon, i'll be stitching it on the plane. and i have a feeling the airline will be uncomfortable with letting someone with an arab name on a plane with big needles...
well, i suppose i did get a little distracted today by getting my dad to set a new diamond in my tooth. this one is bigger than the last, and set in white gold.... wait, doesn't everyone need more diamonds in their teeth? i mean... come on.... what more could a girl ask for?

shrink ray



oh and this is another little thing i'm working on, besides the mazes and Skippy my half decomposed kangaroo...
i want a little piece of Home to take to india and the americas with me, so this is my jewellery box.
guess i'll probably be spending quite some time trying to get through customs....

maze phase



pictures by johnny (thanks johnny!) of another maze of mine, this time at the Art in the Open festival, in mosman darling, mosman.
in the half an hour when vicki and i had a coffee and walked down the main street, we counted 32 (32!!) polo shirts! eeeeeeeeveryone in mosman wears polo shirts! needless to say, between the two of us, and vickis converse gumbots with the little pink flowers, we kind of stuck out around there....
i need more ground to draw mazes!

commitment phobic....


so i recently found out that there are a couple of people who actually read this thing! (hi mum!)
well... i applied for my visa... so it looks like, whether i'm terrified or not, i'm going on my residency to india.
other than sitting nervously in the indian embassy for hours, with two illegal weapons on me, i've been lying in bed after inadvertently inhaling hydrochloric acid. shhhh.... don't tell my uni supervisor....
