My sister, Natalie Phillips (née Conboy), known as ‘Tal’, has gone missing. She was dropped off at Blackburn train station (Vue entrance) at around 5:55pm on Friday 20/04/12 carrying a small black suitcase on 4 wheels and a black quicksilver rucksack with white writing on. She was wearing jeans and had with her a hoody with ‘Talie’ embroidered on the back and also a large 3/4 length black vinyl coat (shiny) with grey streaks.
We last had contact with Tal at around 8pm on the same day. Normally, she’d return home as planned by midday the following day. We have still had no contact as I write this at 10:34am on 22/04/12.
The only information she gave us about her plans, included on the last received text, were her intention of going to the Frog and Bucket comedy club on Oldham Street. We’re trying to spread the word just in case anyone has any information whatsoever.
Please try and help. If you know anything, no matter how insignificant it may seem, it may help to bring our Tal back.
She’s 21, about 5 foot 5”, between 12 and 12.5 stone, blonde hair (dyed).
Please reblog, share, whatever you can do.
Thanks
#taliecomehome

Painting Monskeys time!
I trained in Jewellery and Silversmithing and was always drawn to creating figurative work, so I stayed on that path and incorporated jewellery elements into the character which could be removed to wear and replaced back to complete the sculpture at the end of the day – I like function!
I’ve been producing my own characters like this for 10 years and have now been customising vinyl toys for a year, so the time has come to combine the two. Above I have included some of these works as examples.
These are going to be my first experiments, a Kidrobot Raffy and a Marshall. The Raffy is going to be based on something similar to my “Zebra” photographed with it, with a “Butterfly” pendant.
These first customs with jewellery will be for the girls!
Keep your eyes peeled and tell me what you think.
