'A is for Arizona'

My poor little under loved blog:( 

It's been all about my Facebook artist page lately! 

So I'll get everyone up to speed...I had an exhibition! "A is for Arizona" was an illustration exhibition featuring 'A-Z' of my favorite local and international runway and photographic models, some of them included Daga Ziober, Nimue Smit, Ruby-Jean Wilson and Zuzanna Bijoch. The exhibition opened on the 21st of June in the beautiful heritage buildings of 140 in the city. All works were 700mm x 1000mm and done in a mix of acrylic, charcoal, paint-pens and spray-paint on canvas. The amazing thing is that it was a sell out! The pieces went to some beautiful homes and I cant wait to see photos of where they live now:)

Seeing Double Exhibition

 

Well, the lovely Ann Nie from Tu asked be to be her second ever exhibitor at her new Stairwell Gallery! It opened last week and was such a fantastic night! This collection you may notice is a bit softer than my last exhibition and the girls are more sweet than sultry but you can read more about it here or with the lovely Emma Bergmeier on her Dropstitch blog. The 20 works are all prints from a range of colour pencil fashion illustrations I did exclusively for the exhibition. Each piece has a sister. All are editions of 10 (so you have ten chances to nab one!) and come framed, some with coloured mats and are $240 each. You can purchase the artwork by contacting Tu: info@tu.com.au

In other news I now have a Facebook artist page! You can check it out and 'like' me here! 

Also Proenza Schouler retweeted my sketch Show illustration a couple of days ago!!!

Arizona Muse 2

Promised you! The second illustration of Arizona. Now I can move on to the rest of the 'Draw It NOW' file. I'm liking this technique of laying down watercolour then drawing over the top in colour pencils so will continue on with that till I get bored of it again!

Arizona Muse

I have a permanent file on my desk-top called 'Draw This'. I put all the images I come across and fall in love with in it. Nothing ever gets drawn. I get bored of them so quickly, so, the file has been re-named 'Draw This NOW'! Arizona went in there this morning and came out this afternoon! She is A3 so excuse the photo instead of a scan, off to do another one!
