Outback NSW 2022. We didn’t luck out on seeing iconic Sturt’s Desert Pea, ( Swainsona formosa ) wild by the roadside, but there was an excellent patch at a car wash in Broken Hill. Here’s my car trying to blend in.

THE LOST FLOWERS OF ALICE HART (2023) | 1x07 "Sturt's Desert Pea"

"I found my voice again by listening to other women's stories. Hearing them speak, I realized I wasn't alone. I give you my story, Alice, to add to yours, because you have a voice, a great big beautiful voice, and now is the time to use it."

Painted some Sturt's desert peas (because I am so mentally stable about TLFOAH) and I'm contemplating if i should write "Have courage, take heart" on it or not

Nutty’s palette challenge

Thank you to all those who participated in this challenge last week. Remember, there are no deadlines on any of my challenges, only the ones you set yourself. The aim is to inspire and that does not have a time limit :D

Week Seven

And this one comes from my favourite flower which also happens to be South Australia’s state flower. I’ve added in the quintessential red sand of the Australian Outback. Sturt’s desert pea, Swainsonia formosa :D One of my aims in life is to see it growing in the wild.

This is a painting I did back in 2013.

And a photo from the same year.

If you would like to join in, have at it. Write, draw, paint, craft, scribble, whatever works :D

The Details

I will post a small palette of colours, on Sundays.

Take the colours, which will not be precise, because I’m too lazy to get out my Pantone swatches, and colour matching sucks across monitors and printers and yeah, it’s a graphic design nightmare. So take the approximate colours and do something with with them. Art, craft, traditional, digital, performance, big, small, using all the colours, one of the colours, a derivative of the colours, fanworks or not fanworks, whatever works. I know, getting the creative brain to produce anything is a pain in many body parts. And writers, if this floats your boat, grab it and let’s go sailing :D

Post it to your blog (or not, but I’d love to see it anyway) and tag with #nuttypalette (the whole challenge title is too long and it abbreviates to npc which while I love Ryan Reynolds, isn’t really what I’m looking for :D )

How I ended up doing this

Okay, I’m possibly nuts, actually, probably nuts, but I’ve been looking for a way to activate my art a bit more. I can draw, paint, whatever and I have a studio full of glorious equipment that is barely getting used.

I had thought to start a sketch book, but the problem with that is that not all my media can be supported in a sketch book and plus I am horribly hard to tie down into one thing (you may have noticed).

I was pondering away and it occurred to me that the one thing that links all my art and craft media is colour. This combined with the fact that I have a pile of beads lined up on my desk in colour combos waiting for me to action something with them. They are like mini palettes.So what if I come up with a small combination of colours every week and do whatever with those colours?

I know I’m not the first to have this brain wave, but it struck me as something I could do, so I’m doing it. Initially for the month of February and see what happens. It may fizzle into nothing due to being back at work :( but at the very least I’ll end up with a little bit of creative stuff done?

So I’m slapping it here, in case anyone would like to join in.

Have fun :D

The second most important building in town - the pie shop. Award winning curried camel pie gets the thumbs up.
