Zine update

It’s been a bit of a disrupted work week, but here are three more drawings for Tell me about your body in 10 words or less. I didn’t realise how much people’s feelings would affect me, and I have to say it’s slow going at times.

Friday Fance: A pastel mood

This collection of photos is all pale and pastelly by coincidence because I’m not normally drawn to lighter hues. I am very much enjoying all these things right now though! This is but a sampling of Julie Moon’s lovely sculptural pieces, you really ought to go check her portfolio out! There’s so much stuff I…

Self esteem is revolutionary

In a culture where negative self talk is actively encouraged most of us have days when we feel like we don’t measure up. This practice of comparing ourselves and our bodies with others rarely produces good outcomes. It’s such a damaging culture that even those with high self esteem aren’t immune. Even those who are…

Friday Fance: The Colour of Your Fance

I came across The Colour thanks to Mishy, and spent a good 45 minutes browsing through the collection of fantastic Australian creative talent. I thought I’d do an art/ illustration/ design curation of fance based on talent I found through The Colour. Laura La Rayna, a performer particularly noted for her aerial ring prowess. Laura…

March on.

Hello, many apologies for the late desktop but it is here now! This month’s desktop is the result of many hours of mindless doodling, and inspired by a billion things going on in my life. When I’ve got heavy things on the mind I have my own version of meditating – obsessively tiny doodling. I’ve…

3D rendering by Cristina

The other week Cristina asked me if she could include some of my artwork in her interior design 3D Studio Max class work and she has posted the result on her blog today. Such fantastic renders! I used to work for an architectural firm and found 3D rendering intriguing. I loved seeing how she incorporated…

Tribal Theatre opening

I was asked to take part in Tribal Theatre’s opening night exhibition on March 11 at the old Dendy theatre and jumped at the chance to show my work alongside a number of rad Brisbane artists including: Ellen Stapleton, Clarissa Bones, Bel Johnstone and S.J O’Connor. There will also be short films shown throughout the…

A day for doodling

I haven’t really had time to work on any personal art in the last few months and I worry sometimes that if I don’t take time out for myself that I’ll forget about all the things I want to say and draw. Yesterday I took a day off to recover from some busy weeks (and…

This Little Piggy went to an exhibition

The lovely Rebecca Murphy has organised This Little Piggy, an exhibition of 25 artists and 25 little piggy banks, and it’s opening on February 12th at China Heights. Indeed, I shall be one of those 25 artists and have vandalised a little piggy in the most loving way. Let me tell you about this particular…
