ARTIST
THE
BOOK
My messy musings on my mixed media mash ups.
Things that make me tick + tick me off. AND…
I f*cked it… but I fixed it. Series.
A Note From Fi.
This is where the scraps, tangents, wrong turns and half-mad ideas come to play.
Part artist diary, part creative confessional, part “I f*cked it… but I fixed it” field notes.
Expect messy musings, upcycled experiments, thrifted things given another chance, mixed media mash-ups, and the occasional opinion about what ticks me off.
Welcome to The Artist’s Book — the place where the work gets to talk back.
BIG NEWS
BIG NEWS!
Wake me up … I’m dreaming…. Don’t wake me up,,, It’s a beautiful Dream……..
Back in March I got an amazing email from Maitland Regional Art Gallery inviting me to be part of Up River Down River 2026. So, of course I said YES!!!!!!!
I’ve been working hard to expand an existing body of print work called Architects of Extinction to put in the Gallery. This body of work will be an ongoing theme for some time for me exploring wildlife species extinction in Australia.
Below is a link to the exhibition information. Stay tuned for more information from me regarding this exhibition.
MAGPIES
MARCH OF THE MAGPIES
Strutting on Sir Walter carpeted back yards
Listening for a hint of an elusive juicy worm
Swooping in loving defence of downy chicks
Patrolling Rooflines like avian soldiers
Evensong spent in orange gold light
A warbling rooftop chorus
A distinct Australian Anthem, natures minstrel choir.
