1 week ago by annettejonesbiz I always enjoy the contrast of the ocean and the bush, summer and winter. Especially when Mother Nature provides beautiful colours turning Autumn to Winter. This was in Marysville Victoria a few years after Black Saturday. I’m always amazed how resilient the bush is by bouncing back after such devastation.

We ambled along and took our time until we were hungry and stopped outside a newly opened cafe/restaurant. I love it on my travels when I accidentally stumble upon a place with a beautiful view and great food. Where in the world has this happened to you on yours travels?
2 weeks ago by annettejonesbiz Such a tragic life for this Mexican artist. Born with polio she painted mainly self portraits due to a serious bus accident that left her in pain and suffering for the rest of her life. Shortly before her death at the young age of 47, she held her first solo exhibition. Sadly it wasn’t until after her death that she became a recognised figure in the art world.
