Yeah Becky you Rocky! x

my friend Beck is super talented... like super...
she takes the kind of photos that ooze natural beauty, lifestyle, grace, and breathe a deep sigh of utter appreciation for the wonderful world we live in.
her photos inspire travel and make me want to get out my retro board and surf all day in the sun...
Beck has fused her eye for landscapes and lifestyle into function art works and has created "Rocky Blocks" super cute momentos in all shapes and sizes.

these simple yet stylish creations are not only fun eyecandy but are made of recycled Australian timber (yeah environment) and wont burn a hole in your povvo pocket.

Beck has a couple of stockists on hand but if you like what you see or could see it on your wall check out more of her work at..

Yeah Diana

all i wanted for christmas was waves.

i was pretty lucky cos huey bought em for me and i surfed all morning til 3 oclock and then ate bbq and drunk booze til i was silly.

what i didnt realise is that a special boy had totally sussed out that i was infatuated with capturing images and that i craved a small plastic toy that when you looked through the viewfinder life was presented in a fishbowl...

yep katty got a lomo for christmas.. the Diana F+ with a fisheye tooooo

look forward to sprocket holes, pin holes and plenty of accidents..

love you x

Neuw Monster and Child out now

yay something to do when its raining cats and dogs read my favourite ink and paper, there seems to be more pages in this one and more pretty girls too which is always a winner...

tallow x

when i first walked into the Stone andWood brewery a few weeks ago and saw what appeared to be a shrine, i was mesmerised.. what lay before me also closely struck a chord with the sorts of spaces i create within my own space at home and wherever i claim territory wherever i am in this beautiful world. the dimly lit candles and soft red carpet underfoot led me to what was in fact a shrine... to the beautiful creatures of the sea.. im not talking about cetaceans, but what resembles a modern day mermaid dancing within and above the waves. surrounded by beautifully, artistic crafted swimsuits, wetsuits and patchwork boardcovers, i sighed. in awe i gazed at creations that i really felt i could relate to... this was me, this was how i felt when paddling on my knees on a longboard staring off into the distance at mt warning or pods of young dolphins as small but fun waves roll in at watergos or the pass. this was local.

this was tallow.

this is something beautiful and finally something for the feminine surfer. the functional but attractive one piece as returned, neoprene in soft hues and cuts that you want to wear, stylish swimwear yeah soft and sprawled with artistic talent.

i was again caught by the features of this creation in a local classic surf store. i could feel the fabrics and the quality, this is really handcrafted and reminds me of the functional art that purest longboarders are recreating...

have a look for yourself im already there.

Surf Market Exhibition and Fundraiser.

Yeah, loves it. Nothing better than getting together, looking at art on walls, have a bevvy (maybe a tofu dog) and enjoying music and short films.. we are so spoilt here in Byron its not even funny.

If you like all of the above (or maybe fancy sausages) and wanna dig deep to help a cause come down to the Stone and Wood Brewing Co in the Arts and Industrial Estate this Friday night, kicks off at 6pm.

The cats involved are sending all the profits to Movember and a local lad Troy Jackson so its all for a good cause, and honestly how good is a Stone and Wood on a Friday afternoon.

Il be there after a stint at old Fundies so I hope to see you there x

SNAP Youth Photographic Exhibition.

Hello people that actually look at this blog... sorry its been a while iv been on holidays and hanging out in the South West of W.A surfing, drinking a fuck load of beer, wine tasting, eating cheese, drinking beer in spas for hours on end and drinking red wine long into the night on Yallingup hill with good company and little rolled up things...

sew....
before i left Byron town i snuck a couple of snaps into the Annual SNAP Youth Photographic Competition... its really for young folk and i JUST scraped in before 24 and all.. (old maid)

if your in Byron Bay and happen to be free Thursday night an exhibition is being held for all the entrants..

Show kicks off at 6 p m at the Byron Youth Centre

in keeping with the alcoholism that formed whilst in the wild west on road trips up north and down dirty south i will be having a couple of beers before probably in suffo but i think cos its an underage event dont expect free booze in retrospect tradition...

thankyou for your time lovers
