The pretty peas were still out in force & the rain held off for our Park Edge walk today - nature’s garden was really turning it all on! Wonderful to share it with a delightful group of fellow wild/flower lovers 🙏🏽🌸💛🤍

Back home & back to our wonderful wildflower walks & experiences - including one tomorrow (Aug 25). That one is the circuit in Noosa National Park behind Sunshine Beach & there’s another this Saturday (Aug 29) at one of the best flowering spots this season. That one is just outside Beerwah! I’ve been off on another Wildlowering & walking tangent so haven’t had much chance to promote these - so spots still available for both. Check out Wild/flower Women Projects on Eventbrite 🙏🏽💜

We walked and talked away the day in many ways at the Australian Walking Artists Retreat Day 2. Artist/facilitators from across the country shared, shepherded, provoked and inspired with a most marvellous group of participants. Thanks to everyone for their generosity in sharing & willingness to take the diverse range of journeys 🙏🏽💜

A day of wonders & walking, from dawn to dusk, from the ocean’s edge to tiny duck hunting, creek paddles to moving images under the stars, meeting creatives from across the country & walking together. Just some of the highlights from Australian Walking Artists Inc day 1 retreat 🙏🏽💚💜

From showers and rain to rainbows & sunshine - a little bit of everything as I shared the Wallum love with Fraser Coast art students today! An added bonus was the presence of ‘Wildflowering by Design’ artist (and school artist in residence) emma thorp and her keen eye spotting the tiny bladderworts & sundews! I hope they felt a little of the magic 🙏🏽💛.

It was great to have a group of the artists/designers attend the launch of our ‘Design Wilds’ exhibition in the unique outdoor gallery space of Galley Lane at Coolum. Thanks so much to the wonderful team from Coolum Art Project, the businesses that support this endeavour & those who came along to see & support the opening. The collection of new designs will be on show until mid-September. (In the laneway near Yum Gelato) 🙏🏽💜

What looks like snow-crusted shrubbery is actually the tiny bearded heaths - they are coming out in force at present. There’s Leucopogon pimeleoides first up then I think it’s Styphelia ericoides (yes another name change)! When you get close up you see how ‘bearded’ they are inside 🤍

No Sun Orchids spotted today, and no irises out though could see the remnants of past flowerings - it was all about the whites!

And it was another wonderful day for the Sun Orchids (Thelymitra sp.). After install of ‘Design Wilds’ at Coolum we decided to check out a spot where we saw them a few years ago. At first no luck but looking, looking, looking… found them! 💙💜💙
