Sculpture by the Sea 2014

krystizen
Did anyone ever play a game called Riven? So reminds me of that game.

whale
One of my faves. It’s got that Byron Bay hippy vibe, but it’s massive, a trunk that’s been shaped to be a whale breaching. So nicely done.

zendude
Loved this little guy too.

lovethis
And this as well, awesome.

icebergs
Funny weather was funny. Hot, windy, cold, then crazy hot again.

We had a bite to eat (so healthy and delish!) at Gertrude & Alice Cafe Bookstore on Hall St.

Got a call from young Krysti this morning, who had the day off and wanted to go for a swim. By the time she got to my place the weather got all funny, grey and windy so we thought we’d check out Sculptures by the Sea. I hadn’t seen it for a few years running, she’d not seen it since Grade 10, or something?!

We both thought, being a Monday and all, that it would be super quiet… but fuck, nope! No one in Sydney works I swear! Damn packed as!!!!! Grrrr.

This piece would look right at home in a 6 star hotel.

Made entirely of bottle caps and zip ties!

pizza
REGINELLA – Fior di Latte, San Marzano Tomato, Fresh Basil.

porchetta
Porchetta!

messina
Messina! Thanks to Cordy, I went for the Italian Nougat and Dulce De Leche (which was super delish!).

David and Cordy were in my hood tonight (they live in the northern beaches), they had intended to check out Sculpture by the Sea (which I love, but have missed for a few years in a row now), but the sun was setting fast.

By the time we got there the sun had set. We checked out a few pieces at the very start, but decided to call it quits due to the lack of light. The call was made to have dinner instead! We hit Da Orazio Pizza + Porchetta and feasted up, saving a bit of room for Messina (of-course!).

Nanami’s Latest Piece

nanami_heartstrings
Caught up with Nana-Chan today. She’s finished a piece she started a while back so I got to have a good look at it.

heart
As always, you’ve really got to check out her work in real life. The amount of details she manages to capture always surprises me.

hands
This time around she’s used 3D ink for the string in this piece, again, just has to be seen in real life.

doublebay
We then ducked out for a bite at Australian 18 Footers. her Dad’s old Yacht Club in Double Bay. Such a beautiful day for fish and chips!
nana
Nana, Paul was with us too.

calamari
Calamari.

fishandchips
I ordered Fish & Chips! Yew!

dock
Soon after I took this pic a charter fishing boat anchored up and a big group of drunken yobbos all walked off the boat with huge King Fish. All I could think about was SASHIMI!!!!!!!!!
