This might be a slightly rambling update post. I'm not a huge fan of the recent updates DA has done. I'm finding things so much more clunky to navigate. I'm hoping that things get streamlined in the coming weeks and I'll be keeping an eye on site updates and such. However I will be a lot less active on DA (not that I was massively active in the last few months anyway- blame that on a broken knee cap). I've been around on DA for over a decade now and seen a couple of site updates. This one has definitely been the biggest and copped the biggest backlash.

I will be moving interstate in the new year and going back to more tropical climes. Still not sure about the move, I'll miss all my friends down here. Hopefully I'll be going to uni to study teaching. At the moment I don't know. Apparently a degree with honours doesn't meet the course requirements for a graduate diploma. Uni contact has been ....non existant so not overly impressed with their admin. In art related news there is a new watercolour done, just need to wait until after the move to get it scanned. Also picked up some soft pastels to try out. Other than that won't really have much until after I move. There is a digital picture that
