Healesville Train Station

Today I went for a cruise and ended up at Healesville Train Station (I was planning on going to Yarra Glen, but wasn't paying attention at the turn, then decided I'd just keep driving to Healesville).
It's been a few years since I was at the train station down there, last time was for the reopening of the line for weekend/holiday trips, and I was a bit surprised (and happy) that the train was running again today!

Here's some photos from the station.

This man has a good job.

An old carriage I took a photo of last time I was at Healesville Train Station.

Original carriages and buildings.

The old carriages, still working hard.

A bit of a change

For a long time I've wanted to focus a bit more on my art, so this month I signed up to a handmade business group called Set Up Shop and am making myself sit down each day and work through how to make my art into something that I can create all the time.

So there are a few changes in my daily routine, my business thinking and now on my blog!

I've renamed my blog to Tig's Garden, which is the name I'm using for my artworks, and will slowly be changing how it looks over the coming weeks. I'll be posting a lot more about the inspiration and stories behind my art.  So I hope you can come along with me for the ride and enjoy the changes!
