I live in a quiet suburb in Melbourne, Australia and on most days you’ll find me in here. The room doubles as a lounge room, so there’s a good chance I’ll be curled up watching TV, movies or reading – even on my ‘off days’.
My collection of toys and figures are everywhere: from glass cabinets, to spilling over and overcrowding my bookshelves. Along with hand-drawn pieces from friends and colleagues hung up around me, inspiration is everywhere I look!
I’ve always loved collecting toys, starting with Garfield and Care Bears PVCs, and ALF plush dolls during my childhood, and somehow that love has followed me all the way into adulthood. As I’ve grown older I’ve found myself getting overly nostalgic about the vintage toys. So most days – whether it’s in between jobs or after a long day in front of the computer working – you’ll find me pouring over eBay listings.
