A collection of typewritten one-page pieces, typed on an old Remington 'Correspondent' riverside at various times and on various rivers including the Yarra, Goulburn, Latrobe and Murray. Initiated as an exercise in discipline to counter the lazy effects of spellcheck and live editing, it became something more personal and nostalgic.

Hey Nicky, this is a very cute painting. I'm particularly fond of the spotted jug. It evokes a lazy afternoon feeling, probably something to do with the blue shadows that make me think of golden light.
