^{^{^{^{Took a small trip to Melbourne.
Recieved news of artwork being sold at a few exhibitions I had participated in, and delighted to collect my prints at the Chinese Museum as well.
Very flattered to receive some nice comments there and can’t wait to frame these soon!}}}}

’ Buying a Fishing Rod for My Grandfather’, Gao Xingjian

In a dream, a momentary visit to a childhood place that becomes unfamiliar as I turn a corner. Obscured by time, it has become a poignant memory that I am now lost in.}}}}

^{Dusk falls yet bright pinks dot the border of the forest.
I feel a tinge of sadness as the first plum blossoms bloom.
I’m still waiting for my pottery wheel to arrive up the mountains, hopeful to spin vessels to contain the coming Spring.
I think I might be a bit late this year...}

^{Further on, I enter the forest of towering metasequoias. I can see nothing at all. The darkness is so palpable that it is a wall and I’m sure if I take another step I’ll crash into it. Instinctively, I turn around. Behind, between the shadow of the trees, is the faint glow of the electric lights — a haziness, like a tangled mass of consciousness, like elusive far-away memories.}

^{In love with hand-made brushes in the studio. This broom brush is from Korea, I used it with a celadon glaze...}
