I used to doodle all the time when I was in high school - the edges of my notebooks were usually filled with all kinds of patterns and doodles. These days, I rarely draw! So, I thought I would do this piece just to I know that I can still do it. I love pop music and have thought about compiling something like this for ages! So here is my pop music doodles.
Designed my own weekly planner inserts for my recently purchased Kikki K A5 planner. It didn't include any weekly pages, so I decided to create my own. Each month starts on its own and begins with a monthly calendar. I made it so the numbers were on the outer edge of each page, for easy viewing when you're searching for a particular date. I also added quotes throughout the pages. Very happy with the result and I made it available for a limited time in my Etsy shop Pop Mix - printed and hole punched!
I recently joined several Planner related Facebook Groups and one of them had a Stationery Swap event, so I thought I'd participate to see what it's about. It's in the Planner Addicts Australia group and my swap partner from NSW collected some cute and interesting things for me. Got the package today! Nice!
Have been messing around with Pic Monkey online and created some downloadable planner inserts and calendar for printing. Made it available in my Etsy shop - popmix.etsy.com
Update: No longer available. Shop is now popmixstudio.com
Finally created an Instagram account and a new Facebook page for my art stuff!

My husband has been writing some short stories and he decided to publish them in Amazon as a Kindle ebook, mostly for copyright purposes. He asked if he could use one of my paintings for the cover of his black comedy "Christmas Street" and this is the result. We're both quite happy with how it turned out!
Workspace starting to get too messy. Clutter was starting to pile up, so I decided to get organized using cheap (but lovely) containers.
Where to get bargain containers, stationery and other bits and pieces:
• Daiso
• Typo
• Bargain City
• Office Works
• Stacks
• Reject Shop
• Crazy Clarks
.... plus, other dollar stores!
One thing I noticed about shopping in these bargain stores is that a lot of these items are often limited. Some are regulars, but most of the time, they sell it for a little while, then once it's gone, that's it! You won't see them again and you miss out!
I'm a fan of drawings of food with cute faces. Here's my attempt of hand drawn doodles of cupcakes using fine liner pen.
Some of my recent pop art paintings.
Nothing too deep and meaningful. Just decorative art to add colour to walls.
Collage of my older paintings. Majority of these sold on Ebay, during early 2000's when artists could still successfully sell their artwork there for a good price. Pre-Etsy!
Most of what I painted were Interior Design Art for homes, offices and cafés.
