Adventures in Singapore

I have just returned home from a truly unforgettable week in Singapore!  While visiting a dear friend, I was fortunate to attend a wonderful fundraising lunch that was organised by a hardworking and talented team of expats.  The chosen charity for the event was the National Breast Cancer Foundation Australia.  It was an honour to have one of my prints auctioned on the day to raise much needed funds for this important cause that is close to many of our hearts.  Surrounded by so many friendly and generous women, it really was a day to remember.

One of the highlights of the trip was visiting the Singapore Botanic Gardens, including the breathtaking National Orchid Garden. I was overwhelmed at the pristine nature of the gardens, and the sheer number of perfectly formed orchids. I visited two days in a row with my camera, hoping to capture something special to add to my floral collection.

I am also delighted to announce that I will now be stocking a selection of my prints in Singapore!  I first met Rima, the gorgeous and delightfully friendly owner of @shivadesignsbespoke at my studio in Mornington.  In Singapore we reconnected when I dropped in to visit her unique store.  Shiva Designs is an inspiring place to shop for beautiful, handcrafted, design led homewares, jewellery and gifts.  Items are personally selected, with an emphasis on quality, design, craftsmanship and style. Rima has brought together a carefully curated range of products, and promotes artists from around the world creating beautiful handmade works of art, furniture and accessories. 

I am so excited to have my prints available in-store alongside many other Australian artists and creatives from around the globe x

Poppyculture – A Dream Collaboration

One of the highlights of working in Mornington’s art & design hub is having the opportunity to meet so many of the talented creatives on the Peninsula.  Over the past year I have been very lucky to meet and get to know the gorgeous Lauren Blundell from @poppyculture.  Lauren and her team create the most stunning floral designs for weddings and events, and I was inspired to photograph some of their work. 

I have been fortunate to spend a couple of days out on location with the team, watching as they transform already beautiful venues into a floral wonderland. 

Over time I plan to release a series of limited edition prints, the first of which will be available to order in November.

Super excited to be collaborating with this clever crew, and about what is to come..
