Curvy are now launching their latest book at The Galeries in Sydney. Artists from the book have created a major exhibition but a few others who have been in Curvy previously (myself included) have also been asked to submit work to be displayed in various shops. So for the months of December and January you will be able to find some large scale limited edition prints of mine at Incu. Looks good, if you're wandering around the city doing some Christmas shopping go take a look!

still drawing...
Art Melbourne is looming so I'm busy with a new series of drawings. I think I'm going to continue on from where I got to with the Somersaults and Strange Company work, maybe something like this...
March 22, 2010
more somersaults...
These four little pictures are currently hanging in my show. It's on for one more week (from Wednesday until Saturday) at Kick Gallery, 239 High Street Northcote, if you would like to visit.

strange company...
A little peek at what is in my exhibition at the moment, I will hopefully post a few more over the next couple of days. If you came down on Thursday, thank you! I had such a great night, I bought a dress just in the nick of time, had my tea-light city flickering and actually managed to relax and enjoy myself. It was nice.

calendars goodbye...
I almost forgot to mention, I'm only going to be selling my calendars until the end of January. So after Sunday they will disappear, if you are interested in nabbing one please hop over here:
Also, I have been drawing while also trying to teach myself how to use my camera. Therefore work in progress shots are go. These pieces are approximately 40cm x 60cm so are impossible to scan, hence CAMERA CLASS 101...

I just thought I'd mention as I've been getting a few requests for original pieces, the ink and watercolour drawings of these four are available through Gallery Nucleus in the US. They're framed originals and are ready to find a home, you can see them right here:

last shows for 2009...
I am in a couple of nice exhibitions at the moment. Opening on the weekend at Nine Lives gallery in Brisbane is a show called Small Fry, it has an excellent line up of artists and should be a good one.
If you're in Barcelona there is a show called Dona at Espai Cromatic, this show also has a great line up of artists from all over the world. Wish I was close enough to visit!
I should also mention some super annoying news which couldn't have come at a worse time... there has been a postal strike happening over the last week in Victoria (unfortunately where I happen to be). All my shop orders have been packaged up and are on their way, I'm not sure if the strike has affected their delivery but if you haven't got yours yet, it should be with you soon. I'm very sorry about that, I'm sure the posties have good reason but gee, did they have to pick Christmas.

no vacancy...
Hello! I've been a little missing in blog-land action lately. All I have been doing is making drawings for people, which is fun of course but I'm a little tired and I have a blister on my thumb. I thought I'd pop in and tell you of another great thing happening... the No Vacancy Christmas Market!
It runs from 4th - 6th December in QV Square in the CBD, Ev and I are going to be sharing a stall together and it should be lots of fun. I will have my calendar, giftwrap, cards and framed prints available so if you are interested come and say hello to us. Click on the link here to get all the exact details:
No Vacancy Art + Design Christmas Market
p.s. That's Max above, he was part of my Tall Stories and Papercuts show. Hope you're having a lovely weekend.

alice in wonderland...
Thank you if you came down to my exhibition opening last friday, it was lots of fun! Very happily and surprisingly most of the pieces found new homes which was nice. Actually, there was almost a little too much fun had which resulted in a slight mishap with the keys to the gallery and a late start in opening on Saturday. Apologies if you came down on Saturday and found us closed, mmm... do promise to be more professional in the future.
Tomorrow, Once Upon opens in Sydney at Ambush Gallery and I'm sure it's going to be a great exhibition. If you are a sunny Sydney-sider pop into Ambush Gallery (4A James Street Waterloo) between 6 - 9pm. I'm not allowed to show you my full four pieces just yet but here is a tiny preview. Alice in Wonderland was my designated story...

cake and pictures...
I got a lovely little surprise in the post this morning... The Frankie Photo Album. It's quite beautiful, I'm very happy to be included...
October 05, 2009
our first show...
'Black Stars'
This is the piece I have in the show at Extended Play Gallery (you should be able to click on it to enlarge). The opening night went really well. It was slightly more hectic and a little less glamourous than expected... I had to do the dishes three times because we ran out of glasses! Despite spending a bit of time out the back with a teatowel over my shoulder, I had a lot of fun and it was quite a success. We should have some photos up very soon...
The above lady was also accompanied by these two gentlemen, you can click on either of them to see them a bit bigger.

This week is going to be a big one, Extended Play Gallery is opening this Friday! We are excited and a bit nervous, if you are in the area please come and share a drink with us, we will be very happy to see you! Here are the important details:

Finally, if you're a sunny Sydney-sider, I will be participating in the show Once Upon at Ambush Gallery in November. The opening night will be Thursday 19th November, i'll post more sooner to the date.

we say meow...
I have long been a follower of Anke Weckmann's beautiful work. She has a lovely way with colour and pattern and I am constantly inspired by her. In addititon to her own blog, she keeps a very cute cat art blog with fellow artist Mary Kilvert where she recently featured my diamond pullover cats. You can take a look at We Say Meow here:

I just made a brand spanking new website. If you have a quiet minute feel free to have a bit of a test drive and tell me of any problems you may find!
You can take a look right here:
