Day One of A Blog Affair

Well it's school holidays, the Tour De France is on the tele and the sky out side is full of smoke from a plethora of very noisy fireworks celebrating Territory Day.


wow 1st of July what a wonderful feeling, the start of a new year (financial year anyway), so much to do. Lots of art to make, lots of new techniques to learn, new computer to work out, life is good.
So following in the footsteps or should I say fingertips of a couple of my favorite artist bloggers, I'm going to try  the 30 day blog affair, I wonder how I will go?

Enjoy x Luna

Every school should have a giant something

Just wanted to share some beautiful community art. The Wanguri Primary School, not far from where I live has just had the finishing touches done to an amazing barramundi sculpture. When I first moved up to Darwin 2 1/2 years ago, only about 1/3 of the fish had mosaics. A hoy went out earlier this year for someone to help out and it was finally finished.



Created by artist Techy Masero, the 250kg steel frame was cemented in place back in June 2009. It was then covered in a fine mesh and coated with concrete and then beautiful glass tiles.




The barra was chosen in recognition of the local indigenous Larrakia and  Wangurri people and the tile patterns were designed by the students.

Techy Masero has lived and worked her artistic magic in Darwin and the Northern Territory for about 20 years. I couldn't find out were she is now. I think she'd be amazingly happy with the result.

I have book 1 +2 of The Ant farm by Kim Mayhew. Although technically a colouring in book I keep it with my zines and just love those little ants.
