I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported me with my work over the past year. I’m looking forward to the release of my new book Tick Tock Tick Tock : What’s Up Croc? next year in March 2011 and  I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and an exciting New Year. Best Wishes Kim Toft  x

Have a wonderful Christmas and A Very Happy New Year.

Lots of Love

From Saturday 22nd November Lismore Library , 1st floor, will be exhibiting 4 of my larger paintings from my book The Twelve Underwater Days of Christmas.

 The paintings will be on display until the end of December.

On November 1st in Sea Silks Gallery, the fabulous Lisa Hunt sang The Twelve Underwater Days of Christmas to over 120 people. The Ballina Public School sang the traditional version and Lisa followed with her own unique soul version. I was thrilled to hear my lyrics being sung by 2 very different but talented sources.

The three track CD is also available with the hardcover book of The Twelve Underwater Days of  Christmas or you can buy the CD on its own , and both are available now from our online store or from the gallery , river end of Moon Street, Ballina.

Wishing everybody a very merry Christmas.

 Kind Regards

 Kim
