Have been working on some prototype book structures which have been rattling around in my head for quite a while. So glad to get them out of my brain and into the real world - even happier that my ideas actually worked so flexibly in a structural form. Now to work on some ideas for content.</div>

and 3 definite exhibitions lined up for 2014-2015.<br />
Fun and games!</div>

The up-side of getting up super early to get my daughter to the train station when it is still cold and dark is being able to see the sun rise over the horizon (after filing in and out of the constant stream of headlights). The sun isn't showing itself around here until just after 6am at the moment and disappearing around 5.30pm. Lovely, short, cool & sunny days. BLISS.</div>

Over the past little while I have involved myself sporadically with making a few books for Cheryl Penn's artist book project <a href="http://an-encyclopedia-of-everything.blogspot.com.au/">"An Encyclopaedia of Everything"</a>.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am currently working on another edition for the project. This time pamphlet stitch books as part of a collaborative trade between <a href="http://artistbooks.ning.com/">Artist Book 3.0 </a>members. For this latest edition I am incorporating lino prints with the subject of refugees/boat people.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think this will be the final call of works for the project as the exhibition is imminent and Cheryl will reach her goal of 500 (?) books by the conclusion of this latest collaboration.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The most recent book I contributed was "After All", a concertina fold book about the final silence which awaits us all. A bit of a dreary subject, but don't we all love a bit of melodrama now and then?! Unfortunately, I forgot to take a photo of the cover before I sent it off into the never, never.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A small extract from a well known <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_Allan_Poe">Edgar Allan Poe</a> poem "<a href="http://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/p/poe/edgar_allan/raven/">The Raven</a>" weaves it's way across the folds </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(<i>Deep into to that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before)</i> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
along with images of gravestones, dodos, skeletons and the like - all symbols of memento mori and eternal demise.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The other books I have contributed:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>You are my everything......</i></div>

We have had a curious little visitor in our garden this morning.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Whilst we sometimes see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Echidna">echidnas</a> snuffling around at night time,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
this is the first time we have seen one during the day </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
- apart from on the side of the road after they have been hit by a car :(.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The temperatures are much milder today, which could explain</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
their daytime presence, as echidnas are not fond of extreme temperatures.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Echidna babies are called puggles. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Should I get my hopes up of spying a puggle any time soon?</div>

My attentions have been diverted with the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
organisation of the <a href="http://personalhistoriesartistbookexhibition.blogspot.com.au/">Personal Histories</a> project</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and I have been blatantly neglecting my own blog</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and allowing it to gather cobwebs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the myriad little projects I have been working on </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
is a small print (7" x 5" - edition of 12) for the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.sketchbookproject.com/projects/printexchange">Brooklyn Art Library Print Exchange Project 2014</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The theme this year is "Let this be a sign....".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I went the environmental route with my little</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
bird representing the proverbial canary in a coal mine</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
as a metaphor for how we are treating the environment </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and how this affects the other creatures on this planet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The good news is - if you are a true optimist you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
can turn this little print upside down and you </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
will be able to revive the state of play</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
by bringing the bird back to life :)</div>

Well, I have spent the first part of my year</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lazing at Bondi Beach, visiting Taronga Zoo, wandering</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the streets, galleries and underground mazes of Ol' Sydney Town.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Partaking of foods and restaurants available in abundance.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On my return to home soil, I find myself torpid and lethargic</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with the muggy weather. I am without compass. Waiting for the<br />
breeze to catch my sail and drag me forward over the Hokusai like,<br />
mountainous wave of paraphernalia I should already be traversing.</div>

The Daruma above served me well in 2013,</div>

and their eyes have been filled in as I have </div>

But it is now time to put my new Daruma into service.</div>

A spiffy modern version of a very old Japanese tradition</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This little fellow (designed by Paul Loebach for Areaware) came with these simple details:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Daruma is a traditional Japanese talisman for focusing on personal goals. Modelled after Bodhidharma, the founder of Zen Buddhism, it is a popular gift of encouragement. When one is received, set a goal or make a wish and fill in one eye to illustrate your intention. The other eye watches over you as a constant reminder and guide. Once your goal is reached fill in the other eye and display the Daruma as a symbol of your success.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I am very excited to say my new etching press was delivered yesterday and she's a beauty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She was designed, made and delivered by the versatile and talented</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
team of Keith Wiltshire and Nancye Canobie from</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.merlarue.com.au/">Merlarue Etching Presses, Castlemaine</a></span>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you are looking for a press I can thoroughly recommend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
getting in touch with these guys.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Absolute pleasure to deal with.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It took less than 3 weeks for them to build and personally deliver</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the press (driving from Castlemaine in Victoria to Queensland no less!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some other companies I'd approached had only just gotten</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
around to responding to my initial email! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Their pricing is very reasonable too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Keith and Nancye are both established printmakers and have an </div>

I have finally completed my edition of accordion fold books</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for inclusion in the Artist Books 3.0 #12 (biography/autobiography) </div>

<span style="color: #660000; font-size: large;">"Missing"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The subject I chose to explore was Agatha Christie, specifically</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the 11 days in December of 1926 she went missing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was originally going to poke a bit of fun,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
making various disguises in which Ms Agatha</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
might have been spotted.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, on re-reading information about the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
personal angst which Ms Agatha was suffering at the time,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought it would be inconsiderate to make fun of her </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
obvious state of desolation, even after all these years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Herewith are the two pieces of writing </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
included with the book (the first being a copy of the </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
missing notice posted after Ms Agatha's disappearance,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
offering a detailed (though not wholly flattering) description of her at the time:</div>

Agatha Christie.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Agatha’s books were
beginning to gain in popularity, pushing her reluctantly into the
spotlight.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Her ailing mother, Clarissa,
died of bronchitis in early February.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Agatha’s husband, Archie, professed his distaste of grief and sadness
and resolutely remained in Spain refusing to return to support Agatha through
the funeral, her grief and the ordeal of sorting through her childhood home
whilst caring for their young daughter.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>When Archie did eventually return to England he took up residence in
London, far away from their home in Surrey. He took a mistress, Nancy Neele,
who shared his passion for golf.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is
believed Agatha, a shy, reserved person, quietly suffered a nervous breakdown
after a year filled with personal trauma.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

December, after Archie left for a weekend house party to announce his
engagement to his mistress, Agatha slipped quietly from their home “Styles” and
disappeared for eleven days.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After a
nation wide manhunt she was found safe at the Hydropathic Hotel and Spa at
Harrogate, claiming she was not aware of who she was or what she was doing there.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

A few minor things still to fix up and furniture still to be sorted, but the studio is at last open for business. Just in the nick of time. With both children at home very shortly until university resumes in Feb/March I shall be looking for a space to which to escape - and being tucked neatly by itself under one corner of the house - I am imagining I will be lurking down here quite a bit over the coming months. First project already underway :)</div>

A little project I am undertaking is an edition of accordian fold books</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for the <a href="http://artistbooks.ning.com/">Artist Books 3.0</a> Collaborative Mail Art Group.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The topic for the project is "Someone".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know it is a well travelled old chestnut, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but I have chosen to do a book on the 11 day disappearance of Agatha Christie in 1926.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everybody loves a mystery, especially one that has never been fully explained.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I find it utterly absorbing that it still evokes such wide ranging interest and conjecture.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Project complete </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(apart from making a housing in which to store/transport it).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is the same structure as </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the <a href="http://robfos.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/continuum.html">Continuum</a> book which I sent to Sheffield recently</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(with a different paper cut design) .</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am now looking forward to playing around with</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a slightly different construction method </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
which I stumbled upon when making this one. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It uses the same basic template but by</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
putting things together slightly differently</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can end up with a different looking outcome.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Show you my results fairly soon, I hope.</div>
