This site is intended as both a resource and an aide-memoire.

Since 2023 Tina and Pat have jointly convened monthly geologically themed excursions on our doorstep in Taroona and sites nearby in Tasmania. Through exploring the geology of the place we draw, learn, and record what we find. Since early 2024 this has included “nature journalling”.

Contemplation of deep time, evolution, energy, climate and tiny creatures… all sparking the creative imagination.
