The Entrepreneurial Life of Stephen Mitchell
Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Be Better.
Before we moved to Kangaroo Island, I spent my nine-to-five week day working in a State Government Department office for nineteen years of my younger life! During my lunch breaks, and sometimes before and after work, I walked around the Adelaide city, capturing photographs of the old and new architecture. I really wanted to preserve...

In late 2016, our family embarked on an incredible journey to Kangaroo Island. For my wife, it was a homecoming, a return to her roots, plus to manage her honey business.

In my last post I showed cartoons and manipulated photographs in response to the current atrocities happening in the Ukraine. In an attempt to locate the original of these cartoons, I resorted to TinEye.com .

Whilst there is nothing funny about war, some of the best cartoon-art has been created to say so much about the sh1t that's happening in Ukraine now. I unfortunately can't give credit to any of the original artists of these images. They are welcome to let me know. But Putin can go f.... well, you... Continue Reading →
I don't know what schools teach regarding world wide geography. I do not recall being taught when I was a kid about the rest of the world. We just accepted that we lived in Australia and a lot of other people did not. But now that we have Google Maps and Google Earth plus the... Continue Reading →
