THE ARTISTIC TRAVELS OF AN AUSTRALIAN PAINTER

Jennifer Harnett's Australian Art Tour has come to an end... so has her stay in Lismore, Northern NSW.

"I have found some truly beautiful and awe inspiring places this trip, am very thankful for all the wonderful experiences I've had and look forward to the adventure continuing!"



Blessing in Disguise?

Disaster or a blessing in disguise? Mr.Rainbow conked out on me a few nights ago...


Am hoping all will be well, as there was no major 'crash-bang-boom' when I pulled over thinking that something just wasn't quite right... He’s currently getting looked at by some heavy duty mechanics... so PLEASE send all the good energy you have so I can get him back on the road AFFORDABLY. Thx!

So that’s the disaster, where are the blessings you ask?

i. Got an AWESOME tow truck driver who came & saved me from the side of the road.

Rod, Owner of Murwillumbh Towing

 ii. Forced to be on foot, had a beautiful walk through the sugar cane fields near Murwillumbah.


iii. Spent a couple of nights at Paul’s (always lovely), where I enjoyed the opportunity of getting to know Jonny, Sand & their little one better.

iv. And the last, and probably the most unexpected blessing of all is my new move into the ‘Upper Saloon’ of the Sphinx Bus!


Have been giving it quite the creative constructive overhaul the last couple of days...

Ripped a number of nasty timber panels off the walls, which were growing mould, gathering dust & cobwebs, hiding various critters & nests… If anybody had been home, I’m sure they would’ve gotten a good laugh as there were a few good shrieks out of me… especially when a particularly large, fast and very hairy looking spider scuttled out! 


But now that the saloon has been ‘Jenny-fied’ it’s quite lush & habitable, looking & smelling beautiful, I truly enjoyed waking up in the sky among the trees this morning :D
