Detail from a collage for my godmother's birthday.
October is the prettiest month.
one evening in Ravenna
There are magnificent things to see in Ravenna; photographs
are pointless in conveying the scale and intricacy in the craft you may find there. I can only share tiny things I saw next to things that sustain
open-mouthed staring for several minutes.
Ravenna has grand mosaics in the true sense of grand but at some point I stopped
looking. I saw bamboo flapping against
the top of a high wall. Of course I found a gap to spy through and was rewarded
with a daffodil garden and six white peacocks just before it got too dark to
see.
We only just made our train back and then decided to take the
next one anyway and spend an hour exploring the joy that is a supermarket in a
foreign place.
Visit Ravenna, the city bikes are free and the mosaics are
heavy on gold (and old).
(I found sugar-paper confetti on the pavement outside the
train station)

PS Look how beautiful Dan Pearson's work is. Landscape designers (and paediatricians) give me serious career envy. Hearing him talk about his collaborative Tokachi Millennium Forest project at the Design Indaba this morning was extra special. x
paper city
I'm trying out new media. Well, old media in new ways. Unfortunately this little paper city got squashed, but I'm working on a bigger, better one...
tree, TV, pies
I've recently rediscovered my love of making collages from readymade circular label stickers. I spent most of May this year playing around with these for an illustration module and am still discovering tiny sticky wedges all over room, in books, in shoes...
More to come.
