So, you might have noticed a lack of drawing and progress updates on here over the last 5 weeks or so. That's because I've been in the process of sourcing and building what will now be known as my SAV, which is obviously an acronym for Studio Apartment Van. I'll be living in my SAV, on and off, for the next few months. The main objective is to collect, document, illustrate and describe edible native flora of the East coast of Australia. Later in the year I will have hopefully compiled a book of my findings and make it available to everyone who wishes to forage in the Australian wilderness. All materials for the van have been up-cycled, down-cycled, recycled and unicycled. I'll give you a video tour of the van soon! -- *Apologies for all the ridiculous amount of upcoming #vanlife hashtags. -- #australiana #australiancoast #australia #Gunamatta #beach #campervan #SAV #whitevan #flora #edibleflora #foraging #forage #illustration #illuatrator #australianartist #melbourneartist #australianillustrator #illustratorsaustralia #travel #vantravels #SamVan #PaulReid #DrSeuss (at Gunamatta Ocean Beach)
