About

Hi there . I am so pleased you found my little page. On my blog you will discover things that interest me and projects i am working on. This blog is not devoted to any one practice or interest but is a bit like my online journal. I try not to write too much about personal stuff  but you will find out lots of stuff about my design practices and interests. I love to paint, sew, explore permaculture and use graphic design to get a project where i would like to be.

I am interested in almost every aspects of design and love to learn from fellow bloggers and the like as often as i can. Thankyou to all those that are generous with their knowledge on blogland xo it really does improve the public knowledge bucket (and mine) which intern improves the quality that can be expressed through any designing practice.
I live in a very isolated part of Australia and i am so grateful to live in a time of so much (instant) information. Without the internet, blogs, social networking i know that i could never have been where i am today. We can only blame technology for so much, quite often we forget to thank it for all its greatness as well.

I am not into judging or drama queens, i am into laughing and following my heart. The world is sad enough with out people that create evil for their own amusement. I do let people become part of my life easy which enables me to also be burnt easy. I am growing and learning (aren't we all) but i dont' feel that other people being mean to you deserves for you to do the same, I try to be kind with out expecting any return. Karma must exist, it is not my job to enforce it.
If i express personal things on my blog it is because i want to not because i feel i have to. I love reading your comments so please feel free to dump one on me, and you must know I always follow the back links to visit you as well. I love commission orders so please feel free to contact me regarding any project.

You can contact me through my email michellewalkerdesigns(at)gmail(dot)com
