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.

In the meantime, I thought I would deconstruct and recreate a jacket/vest for myself to wear to the opening of Upriver Downriver at Maitland Regional Art Gallery this Friday night 24th July.
