by the amazing Luci everett of course :) Hello lovelies! Got my computer back online today and so was swamped with Spoonful orders, admin jobs and letters pretty much all day *big email sigh* Anyone figured out how to avoid emails altogether yet? I would love you forever if you knew it… Now, if I owe you one, an email that is, I’m working my way down the list and I promise I will...
HAPPY Australia Day! Yipppeeeeee! So another year has gone by, and DESPITE the rainiest crappiest summer in 50 years (INCLUDING the summer i choose to host an outdoor wedding!) Australia… I still love you more than ever. Your golden shores, your endless horizons, your happy relaxed people, (your terrible service, your sticky bizarre weather-changes) and your wondrous perspective on...
a little butterfly hut today for you lovely visionaries… Can you smell the sweet floating air along the ocean breeze down here? This speaks to me of dreams and poetry lines dreamed up on little strolls along scented lanes… mmm… camera off to hospital, computer almost home, and phone well… don’t get me started… thea. xx
Greetings lovely Visionaries ! I’ve been suffering with the challenges of broken technology over here…. *overwhelmingly big sighs* broken cameras… returned cameras… MORE BROKEN cameras… wiped memory cards… lost whole days of shooting… broken phones… and now broken computers - nooooooooooooo!!! Even my computer is off to hospital this week! What...
I so often post about beautiful landscapes here at visionary HQ. And I guess it’s not really surprising; me being a land lover at heart. I’m one of those unfortunates who commonly experience motion sickness, and so, the earth, and my feet planted soundly on it, is often a place of relief and physical comfort for me - I feel at home on ground and love to roam, appreciate and...
Another quote for today… by Jane Fonda hilariously, but interesting nonetheless - she says - “Everything you have in life can be taken from you except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation. This is what determines the quality of the life we’ve lived — not whether we’ve been rich or poor, famous or unknown, healthy or suffering. What determines our...

Beautiful, no? thea. xx
Something beautiful & heartwarming to end the week? Yes?! My mom sent me an email containing these whimisical love-stuffed images created by the illustrator Ronald Searle who has just passed away. He created the drawings (in the 70s) for his wife Monica, while she suffered from a rare and virulent form of cancer. They depict the old house the couple had bought in the South of France...
and a little more while we’re waiting…?

Damn and Blast!! I am so frustrated over here without my lover (the camera, obviously :) We had literally the most BEAUTIFUL day here in Sydney yesterday and I wanted to show you guys - oh, only a billion amazing things, but all interrupted with the lack of my trusty lens. Sigh, I miss you camera, come home soon. While we’re waiting, how about I distract you with some images...
image by: nezza74 Worked busily & happily away with on of Spoonful’s interns today (yes Spoonful has interns!!! and they’re lovely too!)… trying to get a jump start on this year ahead… marketing (eugh, my least fave) writing, spreading the word… you know, the usual :) No one tells you when you do something creative you’ll spend 10% of your time doing it...
So I got a little scratched up and knocked down by illness… and so did my poor camera. Just before I hurt it I managed to sneak in some photographs of our beautiful humble little Chrismika tree, isn’t he cute? We’re leaving him up a little as we didn’t have ours up before Chrismika PLUS someone mumbled something or other about the 12 days of xmas, and I figured that was...
And here it is - Beautiful Sydney in all its evening firework-filled glory! The people watching, the boats floating… Aaaah, and a new year, to end it all :)
Yes! thea. xx
