Girls just wanna have fun? Just a few of the many highlights from Taschen's giant book of the circus. (So giant that I had to photograph rather than scan these, unfortunately.)
Hey Sandra, I just happen to be working at The National Institute of Circus Arts (best paid gig I've had in ages!) at the moment and they have this beautiful giant edition in the office. It's sooooooo fantastic. I've made a BIG suggestion to my family & partner to buy it for me for my birthday. It's got to a point that I MUST have it!!! I'm feeling a circus inspired creative burst brewing.
Helen, it is LUDICROUSLY good. And --sssshhhh, don't tell anyone in the Australian book industry -- get it through Amazon. My copy was surprisingly cheap! And now with this equally ludicrous exchange rate......
This blog is both a record of my work and an attempt to contribute to the vast inspiration that thousands of other creative people have given me via the internet.
I worked for many years in the fashion industry, designing prints, textiles and developing products for children. I now work as a freelance illustrator and make a variety of work under my own name. Some of the things that I make can be found in my etsy shop and in galleries and stores around Australia.
