beginning screen printing

I'm teaching myself screen printing. This is my first design, ink jet printed onto acetate. Tomorrow I will have a go at exposing the actual screen.

Solo show

Not long to go!  I fly to Los Angeles in 2 days!

If you're in the LA area I'd love for you to come to the opening of the show on Saturday night, 2nd March.

Studio visit

Arrested Motion has just posted a studio visit with a sneak peek of some works for the up coming show.  Thanks guys!

P.S I fly out to Los Angeles in a week!

final touches

Putting the final touches on the paintings before I send them off to LeBasse Projects in LA.  I fly over in a few weeks, hopefully I can get it all done in time!

Hot day in the studio

Working hard on my March 2013 show.  It's summer and the studio is really hot.  Opening the doors helps a bit.  So does swimming in the residency pool :)

Coming soon

UPDATE 5/12/12 : The show has been moved to March 2013, I will make a new show card soon!

I'll make a proper show card in the next month or so when I have more of the paintings finalised, but for now...

In the Studio

Artist Residency Studio

I have just started a 12 month artist residency out in the bush, about an hour out of Melbourne.  I officially moved in on Thursday and have been running around, getting things set up, entertaining curious visitors and trying to keep warm.

For some reason I felt like a move to the bush required me to have emergency food rations so I now have 11 litres of milk and a freezer full of frozen vegetables.  Just in case.  I did some work setting up the studio today.  It's huge and has two rooms, here are some photos:

Drawing Leaves

Drawing leaves.  Perhaps next time I'll draw a tree.  Then maybe a forest, and then...?  (What comes after forest?)

AAF Update 3

Another mixed-media drawing on panel, headed to the UK.
