Dreaming of Berlin from my sickbed!

Hello, I hope you all had a lovely Easter break! I spent my Easter weekend at the Blues & Roots festival where I got my groove on to Earth, Wind & Fire, Trombone Shorty and Maceo Parker (who totally blew my mind). We stayed in Kingscliff and I fell in love with the area. The hotel was so beautiful and relaxing and clean and quiet and a nice break in between days at the festival! It was a nice place to wash off grass, smoke, weed, spilt rum & cokes, dust, dirt, tired feet and portaloo memories - am I getting too old for festivals? Before we went home I went for a lovely frolic along the beach where I saw two dogs sitting under their own umbrellas, a sausage dog running along the beach, a surfing camera crew and just general blue sky & sunshine. I went for a great swim and didn't want to leave. As we left I dreamt of owning a home in Kingscliff. I LOVE the sea.

Alas just as I am refreshed and ready to conquer the world I am STRUCK DOWN!! By the Gastro/food poisoning/tummy bug - road block. WHHYYYy did this happen to me!? This is a completely new way to detox. It's called the 'throw up every thing you've ever eaten and then don't eat anything again for a few days diet'. An intervention was held about my sick complaining facebook statuses - however Twitter & Blogger were not mentioned in the intervention.
Being sick AGAIN for like the 5th time in 5months SUCKS. New sick every month. I'm just a little under the weather lately and I can't shake this rain cloud!!


It was my dads 55th Birthday yesterday. Because dad's love art by their daughters and frame their work all over their house:






The Pictoplasma festival/conference has been on this week and I have been wishing I was there!
SO...
Here is my coverage of Pictoplasma - from my dreams. Pictoplasma (AKA) 'A festival conference of contemporary character design & art'.

My good friend Alex Grigg was able to go to the event in Berlin and I'm looking forward to hearing all about it. He took this photo at Pictoplasma! Lucky duck! :
