Artwork by Sarah Bishop


I just wanted to show-off the art photography I received from Sarah at Molly's Maison when I won her wonderful giveaway just before Christmas.

Sarah holds a Bachelor of Fine Art at the University of Tasmania majoring in photography, but also creates wearable art, fashion and jewellery design. She is truly a creative soul. Have a look in Sarah's Etsy store here

She is also chronicling the renovation of her 100 year old home in Tasmania via her blog Molly's Maison - it is a blog which I can really relate to! And she has the greenest thumb out of all the blogs I follow - her iceberg roses are superb.

I am overjoyed to own Sarah's art work - they are even better in person. I was able to choose two pieces: Blue Anemone No 3 and Hellebore No.2.

Sarah was also very sweet and included a couple of printed postcards and envelope seals. Thanks Sarah!

And this is where I plan to display the new artwork when I have them framed. The photograph above is in our half-painted master bedroom.

Check out the yellow ochre colour under the cream. It always surprises me the colours chosen for internal walls in old Queenslanders when you scrape them back.  Jason will be adding the next layer of history onto the VJs tomorrow - plain old white!

  2. Oh my goodness Anita, aren't you a sweetie! I'm glad you like your prints. Thanks so much for mentioning me :)
    Ps I know what you mean about unravelling all those colours- I was shocked at the number of hideous colours I scraped back in my art studio.
    Thanks again xx

  5. They're beautiful, you lucky duck.

    Though never having actually been 'in' your home, I can imagine they'll look wonderful especially just near the kitchen. Beautiful and clean images!

    I found myself in the Orla Kiely sheet section of Myer yesterday ... as if guided by your recent post ... I got all confused and left with towels.
