Opening Night

It’s all done! It’s looks fantastic and I really enjoyed myself chatting the night away with artists and art lovers alike. I managed to forget I had orange juice in my cup and spilt it all over the front of my dress at one stage but hey, I survived lol. I seriously enjoyed myself more [...]

Yaaaay! New Zealand’s Got Talent Flyer

We are SO close to having all our ducks in a row now. I’ve been doing all the behind the scenes work and now the flyer is complete. All I have to do now is print a gazillion of them, put them up around town and plan opening night. Woo hoo! That means I have [...]

Art Invasion

I don’t know where my head has been this month. I think I went a bit silly the week I got sick. It seems I just let everything out of my mind and never pieced it all back together. I JUST today, remembered there are only 28 days in February. Thus meaning that next week is [...]

So Long, Farewell

I’ll see you when you get there…hmmm any other lyrics I can throw out there? I’m on the plane tomorrow and may or may not be posting from my hotel room. I can access the internet if I wish BUT it’s a ripoff and I’m way too frugal to overindulge lol. My bangles didn’t arrive [...]

Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself...

My name is Chavah. They say for a relationship to work you need a dreamer and a realist. I am the dreamer. My dreams are what I MAKE my reality. I am passionately curious, sometimes awkward and I have a somewhat ridiculous but infectious laugh. I live in the deep south of New Zealand, married to my realist husband. I need him, he keeps it real... like realists do. I spend my days raising four out-going children, it's as exhausting as one would imagine. Currently I live and breathe transforming my body into a powerful weapon. It's my new found love, so if you need me - find me at the gym. Actually don't, I dislike talking while I'm training. I've been described as eccentric, I quite like that. The definition of eccentric is 'deviating from the recognized or customary character, practice'; that sounds about right. I'm the crazy creative type, well actually I'm not that crazy. I know exactly what's up but I am creative. I'm an Artist that's exhibited extensively throughout NZ and sold pieces internationally but right now I'm busy raising children so instead my creative tendencies have been refocused on up-cycling furniture, redecorating my home, event planning and writing.

Stick around to read all about it.
