Happy Spring Equinox, a great time for all things new. Spring lambs, spring chicks, spring bunnies, and now our very own new, little bundles of joy are delivered to the world right here from P.U.G Project HQ, starting with our BRAND NEW official film teaser.
You thought we’d gone away? We’re only just getting started. Enjoy!
This year I’ve rekindled some amazing old friendships and established some fantastic new ones. I’ve let go of excess emotional and physical baggage, not to mention weight! Health has visited me more often than sickness thanks to a mostly raw diet and good old fashioned beautiful exercise!
The project was propelled to new heights by the completion of the short version of the documentary and it’s winning Best Documentary Award 2011! We were joined by celebrated canzer Survivors Sally Arnold, Lisa Lynch and Kelly Short and I was honoured to pose on the front cover of New Trespass magazine and in a wonderful photo-story featuring Rachel Friere couture.
I am so grateful for all the abundance that we continue to be surrounded by and all the lessons, health and love that this year has brought to us all. The adventure continues with many exciting things to follow in the new year for us and for you, I can hardly wait to share it all with you!
11/11/11 marked the beginning of the Age of Aquarius a blessed time for us all where the world becomes open and abundant with possibilities as we continue to unify. This sacred year 2012 I wish you all the happiness, health, dancing ponies and green smoothies that your hearts desire. Thank you to all that have supported us on this on going journey, I am blessed to walk the path along side you all.
2011 has been a wonderful year for the project so far. There has been a lot of hard work especially on our documentary film,
‘Hard to Get: From Patient to PinUp’.
The film documents the making of our calendar shot by renowned photographer Mike Owen, and follows some of the personal journey’s of the women involved .
Earlier this month we premiered a 20 minute version of the full length film, “Hard to Get: From Patient to PinUp, The story So Far’ at London’s Portobello Film Festival.

Here’s what our fabulous logo designer Tika Viker-Bloss has to say about the PinUp Gals Project whilst spraying us a cheeky promotional dub in London’s Leak St!
Here are some of yesterday’s photo’s taken by our very own project calendar and renowned photographer Mike Owen!
The day was lots of fun. We nearly got arrested before we even started which delayed things a bit, but in the end it went down a storm!
As I mentioned yesterday we were lucky enough to be joined by fellow cancer Survivor, lingerie model and pinup Kelly Short, as well as Ali Jinnah from Macmillan Cancer Support (all calendar profits go to Macmillan) and our wonderful art director Peter Cocks.
Many thanks to all those who attended and made it happen as well as to choreographer Mari Frogner and lead dancer Gwen Jno-Baptiste. Thanks also goes out to our logo designer Tika Viker-Bloss (watch this space for more on her soon) who was there with her very cute niece Loretta, and photo journalist Gabor Scott.
