This is my first attempt at photo-shopping two completely different images.  I like Shaun Tan's work and have a few drawings of my own that will go up later.  With more practice I want to blend the giraffe body pattern onto the bricks.  I like the way the necks mirror the curve of the gate.

Mondayitis returns

Hello fello swooners,
Monday is here again and all my attempts to live the finer life have fallen into laundry, clearing up the garden, more cooking and hours on public transport.  It hits 5pm most days and martini time is spent in a hot car on the freeway.  Not good!  I need some house elves or a few slaves.  More on this later.

Welcome from the Rokeby Venus

Hello fellow swooners,

I am starting out in the world of blog after being dragged away from my toilette.  Please join me for a look at the finer things in life with a delicate touch of ego and good humour.  I may wander along the path of good food, wine, conversation and take the afternoon off with some excellent Miles Davis or a Bach cantata.  Please take my hand and be my guide, I need a Virgil to discern the strata of the now and our hear-after.
