You can find Volumes 1-8 archived in the Bendigo Regional Archives Centre in the Bendigo Library (which I have artworks in various volumes). Below is the drawn image that is in the latest volume launched late last year. It is in graphite and fine liners.

Hallozeen Swap 2023
I participated in the Hallozeen Swap again last year, this time making a smaller zine than the previous one.
Fontella: The Zine Machine
Fontella: The Zine Machine is an artist run zine distro from a vending machine located in Barkly Square, Ballarat.
"Run by Ballarat artists Siobhan Finn & Tegan Crosbie, 'Fontella - The Zine Machine' is a vending machine for zines, comics and stickers soon to be located at ‘The Workshoppery’ in Barkly Square. The project aims to complement the existing Ballarat zine culture by providing a playful opportunity for regional Victorian creatives to engage in the medium, share their ideas with the community and build connections with fellow zinesters."
You can read a little bit more about me and my work on the Fontella blog here.

Hallozeen Swap
This year I participated in the Hallozeen Swap; where you would send in 10 copies of a hallozeen (Halloween/spooky themed zine) and you would receive 10 hallozeens back from other makers.
I titled my zine Lucky Charms and used pencil and fine liners to create the drawings. I also used text from magazine clippings and the typewriter I have had for a fair few years that doesn't work very well but it does the job I wanted it to.
It was great to see other participants posting their packs they received online and seeing mine amongst it,

Knot at Home
^ My tiny knot in a jar piece made from white fabric dyed with pink water colour textas, a typewriter for the text and a small jar.
Federation Square hosted an online competition called Knot at Home which was to take inspiration at their current installation The Knot by French Artist Cyril Lancelin. My little creation was their choice in the open section for a runner up prize, which was pretty exciting. It was great to finally have some motivation again during these lock-down times here.

Future Creations
Thank-you to the Kyneton Library and the Macedon Ranges Youth Services for having me down to hold a zine workshop for the launch of the Future Creations Zine on July 1st. This was the launch for Volume 3, you can find #1 and #2 online as it started during the lock-downs last year. The workshop also included badge making.
"The zine is part of Council’s work to elevate the voices of young people and keep them connected to each other and their community.
Editions are published each term and showcase the talented and creative young people in the Macedon Ranges."
It was lovely to meet the young people behind the works and the creation of the zine and the team behind the Youth Services Team, I am excited to see where their next issue takes them.
