It is well known in faery folkore that one must never dance with the faeries, and whatever you do, never ever ever eat faery food. You probably shouldn’t collect their corpses in jars either, but some rules are just made to be broken. Welcome, and behold my latest collection of rare faery specimens! One of… Continue Reading →
This post was never published when it was supposed to be, back in October. I suppose I ran out of time? I felt it was worth sharing, something I will always reflect back on when I hear the number ’20-20′. It’s funny how at the beginning of lockdown, way back in March, I had all… Continue Reading →

The Mythical Markets were even more wonderful and spectacular than last year! Hard to believe, but it was. Probably because I was waaay more prepared this time which certainly helped and I had my little friend Kerry join me again, what a superstar. Together we had made a big batch of magick, shiny wands which… Continue Reading →
2018 has been a really productive year for my art and I’m proud as punch to see how far I’ve come in these past 10 years. That’s right, back in 2008 I had my first exhibition and started sharing my work under the studio name ‘B.Inspired’. Now I run an online shop, sell at markets… Continue Reading →

Market season has come to an end.. for me anyway. For now. I had three market stalls, not many but it was a nice introduction without being too overwhelmed.

The Hills Art Market Memorial Ave. Emerald Vic Saturday March 10th 9am – 3pm I’m at it again, market number 2 is less than a week away and this time I feel a little more confident, and a little less organised. So I figure I’d tackle it the way I do life in general, try… Continue Reading →
I’m very excited to have finally updated my Etsy shop with a heap of new treasures! My style has changed over the years and isn’t quite as bright and bubbly as it once was, but now a little darker and weirder.. like my soul. I’ve named my shop ‘Curiouser & Curiouser’. I’m still B.Inspired but… Continue Reading →
