Create beauty: I am working on my new julesart font with macrons which can be used for Maori and am toying with the idea of offering them for sale. Watch this space or leave your e-address in the comment.

Dance with me, Lethbridge. 

Film course starting soon!!!

Learn Abundantly: Yay! See below pic, grinning with thoughts in process ... and the thought is, that, soon, on Monday, in fact, the film course starts. I get to make a training DVD, then, the next project is Lethbridge, Imaginary Friend in film form. I already have the cast sorted, I just have to ask them. Aah, I love this creative life. Go Lethbridge!

Life is good!

Live simply: These are the first strawberries we ate after we returned from our beautiful trip up north. As soon as we got home from the airport, I wandered through my wee garden of course, and these were the first I found. It is small pleasures like this that make life beautiful...

first strawberries since our return from the north island 

Michael and me - what a groupie! 

Michael drawing 

An inspiration from last year...

Learn abundantly: I was lucky enough to get to go to a day listening to Australian political cartoonist (Melbourne Age) and illustrator Michael Leunig (see pictures.) You can't really see what he is drawing but it was good. Wow, what an amazing person, and I just love his philosophies about life, and what is important etc etc. I think besides traveling and working for The Age, and illustrating his books, he said he homeschools his children too, no wonder he is such a down to earth man. Anyway, I considered it a real privelidge meeting him and came away feeling really inspired.
