Redhaus Artist Cottage & studio

02/11/2024

So this gorgeous venue so close to Redhaus that I’ve longed for it to open finally got picked by brand new parents who have tenderly restored it to health and set it out to play. This is a boon to the neighbourhood just a 1 km walk from AND a fledgling arts nest nurturing all the colourful eggs that wander in yearning for the sea. Follow for upcoming events cos that’s where my energies are being channeled and until i reopen they have places you can stay so close you’ll be part of the action.

Cauliflower tangle, tango the garden is giving. The strawberries went down to quick to document. But Redhaus is not taking guests just yet Sadly. Something else is brewing in the hood….

A new playground is on the rise. The Albion Motel Castlemaine’s November event program will be launched tomorrow with THE FRENCH CONNECTION pairing the wines of LaPalus with heartfelt vocals of new local, Georgia Darcy. If you saw her captivate the tap room youll love this chance to hear more. From Piaf to Zaz, Trenet to Pink Martini she captures the spirit of vintage cabaret and sets the tone for a season of diverse sound performances, body art and speakeasies.

Its the highway or the low way - A YES for no detail YES for no risk YES for nothing to lose but immaturity. says YES and to the Nuanced No, says NOT the time for nuance NOT the place for binding detail. YES to a bolt in the rockface of history saying This is the anchor won and fixed for posterity, from whence the next iterations may be launched. Legislation may shape and unshape the form according to the moral whims of future times but the principle will be locked to the foundational document as an undeniable reflection of a conciliatory mood in this moment. *** May th(E)YES overide the Nose. *** Also. This sign now beaming its optimism to all entering Castlemaine from the south is a gorgeous example of our local community hug capacity - overnight the dream made manifest by excellence of design will and implementation. Huge thanks to PP and gorgeous artwork by his grandson W. Terimakasih banyak banyak. Indah sekali! Y E S.

The joys of being in the home cottage. I rail against the bulbs but they sure deliver. Mum is missing this, one of her special joys when she comes is to gather armloads of flowers til we run out of vases. Then we photograph them in all sorts of combinations. It’s a bit overwhelming but that’s absolutely what they are for i guess. Blissing out on a riot of colour. Even the fruit trees are popping already. Therell be limited rooms after October i suspect. So book spring dates early. #
