Life on the rugged south coast of Western Australia has shaped my creativity and surface pattern design for the past 1.5 years — the ocean colours, the natural textures, and the beautiful coastal and bush landscapes that surround us. And in two weeks’ time — on the 19th of September — little Lucy will join us: a beautiful brindle Labrador puppy, black with golden flecks on her paws, cheeks, and cute little butt, that shimmer in the sun. She will be a sprinkle of magic woven into my creative days!
This blog marks the beginning of a new chapter — a place to share my design process, outdoor inspiration, coastal walks, and the joyful (and likely chaotic!) reality of raising a puppy alongside a growing creative practice.
I hope you enjoy our journey!
