Bower bird studio is perched high on a hill overlooking the Capricorn Coast. 
​It’s a place to just be, it’s a happy space, it’s a creative space, it’s my haven.
Inside my bower are collections of found objects usually in multiples, housed in glass preserving jars; bird nests, bones, wooden boxes, sea glass, stones, seedpods…… these curious objects both delight and inspire me.

I would love to come and play when I am next in Australia. Flights out of Canada will be starting in the new year, so maybe my wish will come true. Love your collections. I too have mine, including branches and rocks with fungus and mosses, seed heads, leaves, and even a few procupine quills.

Hi Joanne, I hope you received the email I sent a couple of days ago! Please let me know when you're coming over to Australia, I'd love to arrange a visit from you. Your collections sound fabulous, I think we collect quite a few similar things!

Have been wanting some for years and just can’t find them
Any suggestions, would be so appreciated!

Hi Lia,
I found one set of plan drawers at a local auction, look for auctions that include furniture from surveyors and engineers. Another set was purchased by my husband from a work colleague, it's my most prized set as it's made from beautiful timber. Another set (I know I'm pretty lucky to have 3 sets!), came from a local school where I used to work, they were throwing them out! However, they contacted me to see if I'd like them, of course I said YES! they are so handy for storing all kinds of stuff from completed prints, paper ready to print onto, textile work, collage fodder, tissue papers, wallpapers etc. I hope you're able to find a set soon Lia.
