It is hard to beat the lethargy in 41C here in Fremantle, we are enduring a heatwave but that is no excuse for not blogging. Procrastination and busyiness took hold of me again and I have now firmly kicked their asses ... I hope. I was updating my status on Facebook just now when it dawned on me, darn this should be on my blog. So .. here it is .. and a promise of more blogging and bleating from here on, but perhaps not always on clay, insights of our homelife may creep plus it is too darn hot to get any work done at this time of year.
'We saw the Fremantle Australia Day skyshow from the beach at Arthur's Head Fremantle, just past the J Shed (a three minutes walk from my Freo studio) see Joel's blog http://freoview.wordpress.com/
We had a long chat in the darkness after the brilliant skyshow. Henry, Oscar and Gaelan had sat on the steps with the water lapping at our feet, surrounded by people quietly enjoying the fireworks zooming from a pontoon only about 100m out in the bay. It was like having our own personal fireworks show right over our heads. Fantastic!!' Now, I could include a photo of the beach or the fireworks here, but I feel sure my (legions of) readers have seen such like before. On selecting an image to share with you I realised my son's new ipod syncs it's photos to my laptop so here is Gaelan getting to grips with his specs made from drinking straws and tubes, much more fun don't you think?? The art in the background is by Mitjili Napurulla - a similar piece is in the Art Gallery of WA. My what good taste I have.
