Dear Yogis,

Please catch up by reading the”what’s On” list is below.  


I have nearly finished this doll (my “MONK”- I have got the face organised in my head, and the perfect head-gear) and a rather lovely fairy doll.  Both of them soft sculptures, not dolls you might give to a tiny-tot to play with (unless they are an unusual child).  There are totems for adults.

If you want to join me, I am having a workshop at The Old Auction House Gallery in Kyneton in October – a Frida Kahlo doll the way that Mirka Mora taught me, and a zoom workshop before then.  I don’t quite know how to do this, but I guess i will learn on the job.

If you want me to make one for you (reflecting a totem or talisman of your own), or to buy one ready made you can go to www.morrisroadstudio.etsy.com or email me and we can chat yogafirst2@bigpond.com

It goes without saying that my yoga classes are still my yoga classes, and you are always welcome, especially the zoom  at 6.30 on Mondays.

The tarot to the right is a Chinese tarot.  I only bought it because I related to the images.  They are rather beautiful and they speak to me.  I have been using them for myself since they arrived and I find that they are easy to ready, and I get accurate message because we are reacting to pictures, and they are fairly universal.

Dear Yogis,

Please catch up by reading the”what’s On” list is below.  

I was at The Woodend Art Market on Saturday… in that time I was offered another workshop, an exhibition, sold a painting at The Mt.Macedon Gallery and sold a Tarot on Etsy.  It’s amazing how things happen all over the place if you just keep on keeping on.  You can never be sure where the positives will come from, but if you do nothing or get discouraged, then nothing will happen anywhere.  Keep the faith as they say.  Just keep working towards your goal, and don’t pay attention to the negatives (and there will be some)… Learn from everything.

The dolls to the left are not the type to give to a child, they are soft sculptures, and meant to be spoken to and cherished in a different way – and certainly not damaged and thrown away as people do to the many bears I have here for people in crisis.  The dolls and the bears are gentle souls, loved and watched over, spoken to,  dreamed to. How people can discard them I just don’t understand.   If you want me to make one for you, or to buy one ready made you can go to www.morrisroadstudio.etsy.com or email me and we can chat yogafirst2@bigpond.com

If you want to join me, I am having a workshop at The Old Auction House Gallery in Kyneton in October, and a zoom workshop before then.  I don’t quite know how to do this, but I guess i will learn on the job.

It goes without saying that my yoga classes are still my yoga classes, and you are always welcome, especially the zoom tonite at 6.30 – we are discussing suffering.

Dear Yogis,

What is happening this month – well the “what’s On” list is below.  I have taken off all but the necessary, because I am making dolls, and doing tarot and these two things are taking up my time (together with darning odds and ends).  I have a Lady of The Daffodils for the Daffodil festival, and then various other flower dolls to finish, keeping in mind I have a doll workshop in October, and 3 exhibitions next year.  The doll to the left is a beautiful French Style cloth doll – I even knitted the leg warmers.

My dolls are not tiny, and they are not meant for children – they are more “soft sculptures” like the dolls that Mirka Mora was famous for.  The Daffodil queen has been difficult because it is 60cms from head to toe,  and the dress took half a metre of fabric which I had to get from NZ as no-where else stocked daffodil fabric.  I will put a photograph here when I am finished…
