The Prickly Hakea is an interesting plant that grows in southwestern Western Australia.

Banksia grandis is a large species of banksia found in the southwest region of Western Australia. It grows quite commonly in nearby forest.

Says it all I suppose?

This was a fun project in Sketchbook Revival.

It’s a daft pun, I know, but still!

Return of the space whales (yet again)!

Getting inspired by Blixa Bargeld from Einsturzende Neubaten and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, as you do!

Tonight, I’m getting ideas from Lando Calrissian and all things Star Wars… :-)

Much Ultravox was listened to as I made this particular one…

That I am, hahaha!

It's Makima! From the anime "Chainsaw Man". The pose could of been better...but I like how it came out in the end.

Fuschia flowers from the garden which are a favourite with the New Holland Honeyeaters.

This little pine cone was missing one side and looks like it’s been eaten, revealing a repeating pattern in the centre of the cone.

The nearby pine tree has dropped quite a few pine cones, all in different states of decay. I enjoy looking at the different shapes, sizes and colours of each cone, each with its unknown story.

Inwardly things…

Ghosts and films! Is it October already?

There are only a few lovely large pine trees near my home in the Southwest of Western Australia. This little sprig was found on a walk where there was only the one pine tree in amongst the other trees.

So begins October! It’s gonna be an adventure, that’s for sure… :-)
