I’ve spotted this enormous magnolia flower …
travelled to Gippsland in the rain …
shared an al fresco luncheon in Central Victoria …
inhabited a renovation-in-progress that was also ‘home’ to a wet-plaster scotty dog …
enjoyed lace and leaves …
marvelled at the durability of old words …
and played with ruin. That is all.
Yesterday began with two sessions in a fabulous school library, complete with fabulous library staff (and special wow! to the art teacher)Together with their teachers they have crafted a rich, immersive world for their students. It was so lovely to see art and literary offering that referenced so many of picture books I've co-made with so many great illustrators. And watch out, there are many developing creators being nurtured. *particular mention of the newly invented 'kitty basketball fish! The day ended with a visit to the Little Bookroom for an event with primary school teachers where Jess and I talked about the books we make together and separately. Thanks Michael and Jenny for our welcome. You could even say my day was 'bookended' ;)
