- As things begin to settle down here in Hanmer Springs, New Zealand - I have begun to find myself with time to start thinking about updating my ART.undefined. The time has come to start tweaking my porfolios again here in order to refresh what I have posted with the most current and best pieces.
- For those of you who may be keen in using my services with regards to photography, jewellery and/or painting, please contact me with your request/idea and I will be able to formulate a suitable rate for the project. At this point in time I am looking to get more experience within the buisness of the art industry, so nearly any project would be considered.
- At this point in time I am currently putting together an array of photographs to be showcased at Lululemon's newest store in Queenstown, New Zealand and I can't wait for the finished product! Not only that, but I will also be doing some work around Hanmer Springs with some local buisnesses looking to update their websites and brochures with new photographs.
- Continue to check back to ART.undefined here as I attempt to update everything as quickly as possible.
Broome's Best
So it's been a while and I figured it is time to FINALLY update this art site. First off, since I have last written, I have made it to Australia and currently I am finishing up the last few months of my holiday working visa in Broome, WA where I am working to save money to go to New Zealand.
With my trip to New Zealand, I will be trekking the Te Araroa Trail and, in doing so, am trying to raise money for the Indigo Foundation. As I won't be starting this trek until October 15, 2010, I have come up with some other ways to raise money for Indigo Foundation including selling my jewellery.
Feel free to check ou the progress on my trek preparations at: http://www.onelifeadventures.com/ as that is currently where most of my time and effort has been.
On another note - it is time to revamp this art site to make it more user-friendly and pleasing to the eye. Stay tuned as I try my best to update this site as quickly as possible as there is so much more to come!

inspired
i am now currently into my third month of travels and as i make my way down the west coast of the USA i find it bitter sweet. i never realized how difficult it would be to leave home where all my tools for art are now securely packed away. as i pass an endless array of jewellery stands, painting studios and so much more i am overcome with so many ideas that my mind is full of all i want to do. fortunately, i still have my camera with me and as i go i hope to be posting some of my favorite photos under my "world travels" portfolio.
it is such a neat thing to be able to have the freedom to explore the world for what it is
- skip the tourist hot spots and take in all the real experiences each location has to offer. now, dont get me wrong, there isnt anything wrong with doing the tourist things - i just find that a lot of times the culture, people, colors and ideas are so much richer in the areas where the locals "hang."
i am close to making it to australia, where i hope to spend more time settling in and even getting a job or two. i hope that when i get there and am able to put my feet up for a while that it will open up the opportunities for me to explore my art a bit more freely rather than trying to cram all the inspiration in my mind and hope for the best that it will still be there when i return home.
for those of you who havent already - feel free to check out my blog in which i am regularly posting my travel adventures. you can find it at: http://shalanehopkins.blogspot.com

world travels
as i prepare the final items for my journey to travel the world, i feel as though it is time to update my site here and inform everyone that from this point on it will be difficult to put through any orders for my pieces. that being said, i still welcome anyone who is interested in my art to email me their request as i may still be able to arrange purchases while i am away. i apologize for any inconvienence that this causes.
that being said, i haven't left town - YET. i will be having a final garage sale to sell the rest of the possessions i have and my art will be up for sale at this time as well. for those of you who are interested in purchasing my art before i leave, this will be the best opportunity to do that before i go.
the sale will be held on june 27 and 28 (9-6pm). please email me for the address and/or directions.
all in all, i thank you again for everyone's support in my journey to pursue my art and my dreams. i am thrilled to have the opportunity to travel the world and i can hardle wait to be inspired for new art pieces for when i return home. for those of you who may be interested in following my travel journey, please check out my online blog at: http://shalanehopkins.blogspot.com/ -- you may also subscribe to this blog in order to get updates sent to your email.
