solo exhibition...

So it is the first day of the long weekend and I find that I am sick. Which is a little boring as I should be doing lots of fun things, including finishing off some new work to show and tell you about. The big news for me this year is that I have organised my first solo exhibition, it will be at Kick Gallery in Northcote opening early July. 

I'm very nervous. After planning and thinking and sketching for the last three months I finally have a tiny idea about where I want to go. 

By the end of April I should have half of the work complete, in my mind that includes a series of twelve ladies and eight dapper looking gentlemen. I will be using some odd photos from the 1800's that I recently bought off ebay, including this strange fellow...

I have also been interested in the Victorian language of flowers. Here is a buttercup, and if I were a polite Victorian lady I might believe that there are good things to come. One does hope so... it would be nice to see a drawing finally finished...

Ahh-choo

Awesome. Your dapper gentleman's hair reminds me of a Cheshire cat a little bit :) The yellow of those flowers (buttercups?) is gorgeous!
