Hey there, I have really do love to design everything and anything, so here I am planning out my dream house, still rough and barely finished... Just wanted to show that I love my graphic design as well as landscaping, so if you love this then be glad to know that there will be more posts on the way.

My life is staged


moments sometimes stolen


battered then returned fully enraged


lost in self doubt


sitcoms try to tune it out


vicariously living through my art


mind always stranded


rowing the a bis through oil paint on this canvas


crevasses created


extent unrated


truth seeps thru


but that's just life


issues always faced


nothing's ever new


cleansed and made pure


arts my cure


a blessing with no disguise


Gods gift to me


of that I'm sure


Pathetic Crush



I hope this finds you well, well enough to see the day through


The world misses your sweet charming smile


Lord knows I've adored you all the while


Life passes us by but ive longed to sigh


For that joyous moment of relief and complete faith


In the truth that you heart feels the same as mine


The way it fluttered on that warm summers day


When i hugged you and you carried me away


Into a life promised with bountiful blessings


We both dreamed would come with out dismay


But dreams are dreams and you remain still


Away in the shade of great suppression


Mind knows not to pay close attention


But to support you with out tension


So I remain transfixed by your presence and pray


The life your mind, body and soul held close


To that warm loving smile that you give once in a while.


I once wanted nothing but to gaze upon your loving smile


To understand what it would be like to be near you


Hold your gaze with unquestionable fear


Taking long strides and hiding my glare


Anxious to greet you love you and be with you


Nothing but friendship is all that I will get from you


You make that clear with a passion so dear


no choice but to love you secretly much I fear


Wedding vows for the one you adore



For want of a love so pure and true


I see none other than the likes of you


Sacred words of love one says in vain


In all honesty I say this with absolutely no pain


I met your gaze and felt you were made for me


Meeting you has set me free


My heart melts when your presence is near


On this special day my love please don't shed one tear


Everyday since our love has grown strong


It resides in my soul and that can't be wrong


So with all the ups and downs, future smiles and frowns


lives we have lived, days to come, we vow to share


For better, for worse, till death do our souls part


Today we celebrate this union so rare


With all that we have been thru


I now promise to love you for ever


And say I do

Truth Be Told By Me



Thoughts untouched


Problems over turned


The world now sees the cracks


Pressure builds


Emotions fulfilled


Tears flow freely


I sit here now


Contemplating the future


Happiness


No where to be found


Crushed dreams


Broken Promises


Exist in places meant to be occupied


By passion and faith


Reality lost


Truth crumbles


Pieces scattered every way possible


Thrown in to oblivion


Shattered to dust


No body sees me


I am more of a problem than anything


Not a priority


Just something else not worthy to support


A figure, more or less unappreciated


But I see myself


A cry for help and comfort


Doubtful that anything good will ever come


Of me


I have a name


But nobody hears it


I had a dream


Everyone seems to crush it


Aspiration to become someone great


But how can this come to be


When nobody sees me


Just as a pathetic excuse for a daughter


Just as a remarkably weak younger sister


Just another member of a family where


Still


Nobody sees me


It's incredibly funny how I got given the talent


to make art


I even happen to want to live a life where art is my passion


But this is a life that my father perceives to hold no promising future


Why is it so easy to hate and not to love?


Why must this be the fate that i must follow


Can I not please the ones I am suppose to love


And do what i do best?




Ideas Unvoiced, Voiced



Lonely hours


Spent wading through mess


Sigh at the mere thought


Of your sweet cares


Truly emerged in passion and faith


Ties and bounds to you


Feel nothing but safe


The time


Time spent pursuing you


Only ever met boundaries smothered in depression



I'm thru



Your cool whisper on my finger tips


Leave me drowning in suppression


You suffocate me


Unwillingly


Embracing your charm


Only your past affect leaves me speechless


Weak


One moment of clarity


All that I seek



But a passion


So beautiful


Wonderful but wrong


Leaves the lengths of my love for you


Undoubtably strong

Pencil on paper, sections of the work have been extracted and the drawing has been assembled in to a partial cube. Love the shadows created by the cut out shapes, brings a whole new perspective to drawing and landscape design for me.

couldn't help making them they were just so cute! lol. things wrapped in strips of fabric.
Six columns of coloured duracell fixed along the wall from the floor to the wall. My recent love for colour has now been placed in this art works displayed for our foyer projects!.. was an extremely enjoyable piece that caught the eye of all those that used the foyer during the time this work had been exhibited.

an ink pen drawing made on A4 paper. Intricate lines pivoting around the central point dispersing into the surrounding space around the drawing.
two ten exhibition work that was recently displayed this past week at Shed10, on the 2nd of Sept. It is Acrylic and cotton on canvas, it plays with the concept of space and time, the element of surprise through the realization of the media used to create this work. The simplicity on this work, and the crisp lines are what I think make this work successful.

Not a very good image but at all, but it's all I have at the moment. A piece that's playing with colour composition and leading lines, drops the obstruct the background. A work in progress really, not quite there yet.
A work made in 2009 with flax and pins, a work that plays with the ideas of application, placement, leading lines and arrangement. A playful work that is simple intricate.

This piece plays with the mixing of origami and naturalistic shapes on a flat traditional substrate, the canvas. Quite a small work, but successful from my perspective.

Most recent work. Conceptual work dealing with the use of materials that I wouldn't usually be using in my art works but there you are. A simplistic piece that plays with positive and negative space and the interweaving of two completely different materials on a flat substrate.

Patterns are everywhere and to me they are all beautiful and unique like this photograph that I captured here.

These photographs show delicate petals which have fallen to the ground with the shadow of the tree from which they have fallen, what drew me to this photograph was the beautiful colours captured in the sun light against the silhouette of the trunk of the tree.

This piece was made in 2009, made as part of a drawing brief for my BVA course at AUT. I chose to base my art on the idea of identity and this is one of my conceptual pieces. It focuses on the idea of identity and identifying myself as an artist. Pretty basic but it's only a starting point.
