Biblio Art Prize 2021
Was pleased to be selected for the Biblio Art Prize again this year. The book I was allocated was ‘Love & Virtue’ by Diana Reid. An excellent book but not the easiest to draw inspiration from, and once again, I left proceedings till the last minute!

Friction drawings ....
I have been travelling in outback Australia over the past two years, and looking for a way to mark / document / record this experience in as immediate a manner as possible, I have produced a set of ‘friction’ drawings created using a stylus pen and my iPad.
I would say they are still in developmental mode, while I experiment with layering in-situ photos and drawings to create a more complex image.
Or maybe they are done!

Exhibition coming up
Hello dear reader
My exhibition FOX starts on Wednesday April 25th and runs until Sunday May 20th at Tacit Galleries in Collingwood.
These fox paintings and drawings were created as a pleasant diversion from serious endeavour! But, as is the way of art, each one became a puzzle to be solved.
I have enjoyed working with layers and color and collage, making images that are both real and unreal. Come say Hi to these beautiful creatures .....
