"Fawned"-Raising

This is the orphan fawn, in the foreground, that was found in Bondi's back fields. We also found the dead doe...  when you find a fawn, it is normally best just not to touch. Take some heart-touching photographs, and just let them be. But this one, with a dead doe nearby, had spent over 24 hours in the same spot, in the rain.  We called the Aspen Valley Wildlife Sanctuary, and they advised us that it was time to collect her and bring her in.

At the Sanctuary, she has found friends. There are five fawns currently in the nursery, and she is almost inseparable from this one. That's good. Life is a lot better with friends.

Napster has been fundraising, and so far has gathered in about $200 towards the fawn's care.  He is offering a discounted rate on all his work -- bracelets for $25; 10% off all his artwork.

Contact us through the Blog if you would like to purchase any of his works.  Or, if you simply have no room on the walls or on your wrist, the Sanctuary can take deposits directly.

Bay Watch

Landscape as muse...   When friends Deborah and Lesleigh were visiting, while presenting the delightful short play Her Wake at the local libraries, Napster spent some time chatting with them. Sitting with them. Sitting on them.

Time to get out the paints. He has been spending a lot of time of late on the balcony, enjoying the view.

And what Deb saw in this, his latest creation, is a landscape painting of the bay, seen with autumn trees in the foreground and far shore.

It is full of life and colour and joy, and we are happy to present it to his fans, under the title Bay Watch.

Also, this summer, he will have available Cards in support of Eyes on Animals, a domestic animal welfare charity based in Amsterdam. These cards will be available here at Bondi Village, or through the Dwight Public Library.

His new line of bracelets are proving to be quite popular. Unique, lightweight and stylish, one has already been shipped off to England.  What a fun, lovely way to "Get your Napster On!"
