Yes, we're back...and...well...we're loving it!
No offence to the lovely people we met and know in Sydney, but there's a few things a Melbourne duo can miss about home like coffee, friendly service and trams.

For those of you who don't know, Sean and I had our first exhibition in Sydney over the weekend, or to be more exact at Ruban Rat (vinyl toy store) in Newtown.
Ruban Rat is located on King street and stocks a variety of vinyl toys, blind boxes, books/magazines and t'shirts.
The stock is selected by the owner Rachel who in my eyes has great taste in these things and if you live nearby you should definitely go down and take a look at what's in stock.
Sean and I picked up a wooden "Hells Proprietor" by Glenn Barr and a "Dr Destruction" by Muttpop.

Newtown is probably the closest Sydney gets to being like home with a few good cafes and an abundance of Thai food that kept us well fed.

Opening night went well, we met some really nice people who came to appreciate our work despite the rain, (apparently rain keeps the Sydney people away) and landed a few sales too.

Sean and I worked on our first ever collaborative print specifically for the show called "Fight Like Rabbits", coming in at over a meter in length this is one hell of a print.

 

If you can't make it to the show you can purchase it as a Giclée print on cotton rag paper (limited edition of 10 worldwide!) over at BucketoThought.com

Huge thanks to Will and Nell for putting us up for our stay, their hospitality knows no bounds, and to Winston and Jess (their dogs) for jumping all over Sean.

Another big thank-you to Rachel at Ruban Rat for putting up with our bickering during setup and constant bitching about Sydney.

Yes Sean and I have given birth to a brand new webstore!

Our multi-page, PayPal enabled, bouncing BoT filled store came kicking and screaming into the world
on Sunday afternoon.
Since then there has been many sleepless nights and lots of crap to clean up, but that's to be expected.

Get your hands on some stuff… now!

Thought I'd post this up because they're just so damned cool!
Sean Kelly aka - Bucket'O'Thought aka - my lovely boyfriend has just produced two lovely books with Modofly.

You can buy them via modofly.net and etsy.... SO DO IT!

Exciting news - Sean and I have our first ever show together as an "item" woooooooo!

Our cute lil'show will be held at Ruban Rat in Newtown (Sydney) with prints, custom vinyl, skateboards
and a few other goodies on show.

We hope to see some familiar faces there (Being from Melbs this will be our formal introduction to Sydney.)
If you can make it- come have a drink with us!

Please pass this on to many lovely Sydney peeps ;)
