Anatomy of a Drawing 1
I thought it would be interesting to dissect a drawing, so to speak. This is one from my Moleskines collection, book two. It began with a what should I draw? kind of question, and a suggestion from Peter of a walrus. No more of an idea than that. I pulled up photos from the computer [...]

Mondoodle 28-12-09
In this twilight moment of 2009 I wish you happiness and great beginnings.
I hope you all get a brief respite from work – I’m having one and it is much needed. Next year is going to be exciting and challenging and I’m looking forward to it. But I’ll think about that soon. For now, here’s [...]
Galleries
I went in to the city on Friday to check out a show. Now, some of you will think that this would be a regular thing for an artist to do. Like film students go to cinemas and writers read books. Unfortunately not. I’m basically a tethered hermit-artist (more crab than monk – I’ll take [...]
On the run and fashion
There’s a little bit of panic that sets in at times each year. It’s when I’m falling behind a little bit with new things looming and I start having unsettling dreams about being chased all the time. No difficulty in interpreting those particular bludgeons of the subconscious.
At the moment I’m finishing designs for a cute [...]
Memories
I really envy people their good memories. I don’t have one. I have a terrible one really. And I think I’ve lost so much of my childhood which, being a children’s writer, it would be really good to access! We were talking about memories on the weekend during the session on Grand Final day. One [...]
Jumbled
Three things:
1. Just had a great meeting with Allen & Unwin to talk about a new project. It’s been a long time in the wings and is finally getting ready to start (after the epic is finished). A little archaeology, a little mayhem and a lot of film noir!
2. I’m off to Traralgon this weekend [...]

New page – look right…
Hello teachers, parents and kids.
There’s a new page here (top right) called SCHOOL THINGS. It has colouring-in sheets, a word jumble, the sheet of images of “Strange” the cat from The Night Garden, and a rogue’s gallery of some of the pictures I’ve created when visiting schools – as directed by the kids in [...]

studio time
Oh I’ve had the best week. My wonderful friend Anne Spudvilas has let me borrow her studio for a few weeks. As many of you would know I’ve been slowly accumulating work for my first solo exhibition, mainly painting at the markets and whenever I can grab a spare hour. Which isn’t very often. Some [...]

Chatty fun & 60 launches!
Well that was fun
I just finished chatting to schools in the online festival. It’s wonderful to get to talk to the kids directly like that. I wish it had been longer! One of the cool questions was if I had made Sally a boy, would that have changed the design? Very good question. [...]
