Life as it is at As Iz

Sorry, I know its been a while since my last Blog...altho James is pretty proud of himself I believe!

Between the various things that Life has me doing lately, time is really of the essence!

But I did think I would quickly show you the Art release we had at the As Iz Art gallery yesterday in Portarlington Victoria.

Tags, Masks & Fishblood : This is a new release of some amazing works by our Gallery curator, Christopher Duffy. If you live in Victoria, its worth a country drive to Portarlington for a look. If you are further afield, have a look at our website on www.asizart.com.au

As usual we had a good crowd attend, and their appreciation of the brilliant Art on display was obvious!

But I do have to ask you all...Who do You think the next painting here looks like?

Who is she??

5mt mural 'Awakenings' Work in progress.



Chris' sensual paintings have incredible depth, and the characters of each stand out. Gaze into their eyes and you see a deep reality and personality exuding through.  These are collectable investments for any avid Art Collector , or just come in and watch 'Duffy' finish his enormous 5mt long mural 'Awakenings' . Its a very relaxing pastime!

For the record, most people think that top painting looks like Julia Gillard, Prime Minister of Australia. Well, she is currently anyway!

See you here soon!

Cheers,

Housewives and Housework...1950's style!

As a matter of research into my book about  fun Wedding Ceremonies ( which is titled How to Have Fun Getting Married , due to be released in 2 weeks) I have undertaken some extensive research into the Marriage game. Along the journey,  it reminded me of a book I purchased for Ms. SaidByNed when we first moved in together some 15 years ago. The book titled The Beginner Housewife by Phyllis Harker was first published in 1956. I just must share some of Phyllis' advice. Phyliss plans out a full day in 15 minute increments, beginning at 6.50am, going to bathroom, brushing hair, apply make-up. Between 7.30 am and 8 a.m Phyliss suggests any bride make up a list of the days work which should include at least the following: Wash up Make Beds Washing ( own undies , blouse etc!) Ironing Clean bath & basin Mop bathroom floor Stairs Bedroom Hall Mop and dust downstairs ( ! ) Vegetables Steak Trifle Kitchen 8.10am Wash Up. 8.20am Put washing to soak in plain , tep

The Tram Sandwich

The Tram Sandwich I don’t often travel on a tram in Melbourne but on this day I was headed to St Kilda and decided to catch the 89. As it clattered its way toward my stop, I was feeling almost dizzy, overwhelmed by the exotic sights and sounds of Melbourne, the multicultural colours and sounds of the people in their array of international attire surrounding me at every turn. I climbed on board and quickly decided upon a seat near the front. Sitting down pensively I exchanged glances with the young couple sitting opposite. They seemed to be looking into me, wondering. I gave them a tiny smile before glancing down at my travelling companion, sitting on the seat beside me. ‘I wonder where he is going’ I stated out loud to the couple, tilting my head toward the companion on my right. They both burst into a rage of laughter, because, sitting squarely and neatly beside me on the seat was a perfectly wrapped sandwich, cut into quarters. ‘Do you think we should share it?’ I asked and

Feline Ballet Class

I snapped this pussy in the window ( the one with the waggyly tail) and have often pondered captions that could go with them. So I am putting it out to you all...please come up with your own caption/s and post it on the blog site under  "Comments". Of course the best one will be posted on here for all the world to see. Purrfect. There, that last nail should keep those people out! I'm getting tired of these ballet classes..... Ned Hoskin www.wedbyned.com.au
