Hi, my name is Sandy.
I'm an artist/designer in Perth, Australia. This site showcases some of my creative projects. Sorry the pictures are grainy sometimes - I usually take photos with my cameraphone because it's quick & easy. Find more of my work at sanlive.com.

Work work, zug zug

There’s a new powder box out.

Haven’t had much time for creativity otherwise, save for stuff that’s part of my day job. I’m almost halfway through the writing course now. Trying to get a few intermittent work-from-home days so I can squeeze some progress in between the daily tasks. Meanwhile, my lucky pardner gets to play Red Dead Redemption every night while I slave over a hot keyboard.

Sorry for such a measly update; hope to have more to say in a few weeks. :)

mélange

mélange #2: sensualist (2010) is the latest issue of my perzine – a mish-mash of text and photos.

Hangovers, even small ones, seem to trigger all the bad-feeling parts of my brain – the sad, lonely, anxious, paranoid parts. Silly as it sounds, I do sometimes fancy a drinking binge as an “exercise in self-awareness”. Learning to be a connoisseur of living by observing and appreciating the indulgence and grotesquery of real life. This is mélange #2: sensualist, where we explore these things.

This zine is about appreciating life through wine, beer, food, holidays, hangovers and good company. Includes snippets from my kitchen notebook, some wine theory, a bit about human needs, and cameraphone photos of things I’ve eaten in the last couple of years.

Half-size (A5), b&w, 32pp.
