This is a great little title sequence to a 70’s show I used to love, most memorable perhaps for the funky music, but also wacky ideas…I really, really wanted a Magic Torch like this…

Another trip down Memory Lane…
An Interview with Helen Dardik
I am one lucky Wee Hen!
I approached Helen recently, hoping she might respond to a few burning questions I had about her wonderful illustrations, and how she works, and I was honored with a response to all my questions…
WH: I know you mentioned in your interview for Lilla Rogers that you work mostly in Illustrator…do [...]
Inspiration | 0 CommentsThe Agoraphobic Heart
Another old poem I’ve rediscovered…this one is from 1995. You can probably fathom what sort of state my love life was in at that time

Moon jellyfish
We went to the Waikiki Aquarium and saw some beautiful moon jellyfish. It was like walking into a dream….
There were also the most amazing seadragons, I just wanted to swim with them.
Of course, the kids loved the shark!
