All abuzz

Blogging is a private solitary act mostly, but as you know, very public. For me it is extremely revealing of character. I have made great friends through it and it enriches my life and opens up a world of possibility.  The Hive Conference in Berlin was quite an eye opener to how seriously people take it and how much of a business the blog is evolving into.  
I produce this blog for the pleasure I get sharing great artists and illustrators, showing a little snippet of my life and work. As well as for research and for the joy of communicating with lovely people.  
The Hive had some powerful and influential bloggers from many genres of blogging and it was very interesting, showing me different perspectives on how people blog/ publish, about what and most importantly why. 
The greatest pleasure it afforded me was to spend time with friends and to explore Berlin.

Berlin, Walter Womacka





I have just returned from The Hive Conference, Berlin I had a wonderful time with my friends Deb and Natascha, and met some new friends as well as 'meeting' Berlin. 
I loved these tiles around "Fountain of International Friendship" created by the Walter Womacka Collective, they are soft and Chegallian and contrast greatly with the starker architecture and environment.  
The gentleman in the middle picture requested that his photo was taken :-D
