Drawing Show at La Mezz Gallery

These were my pieces for the Drawing Show which opened last thursday at La Mezz Gallery. I forgot to take my camera to the opening ( I know what kind of photographer forgets her camera!!!) Anyway i only had my husbands iphone which didn't take very good pictures so I will hopefully get a chance to get in there this week and take some better shots of them on the wall.

These images are the result of my recent exploration into the use of mono printing. I titled them 'The Hunter' and 'Strolling Dainties'.

Drawing Show -sneak peak

Here is a sneak peak at what I have been putting the finishing touches on this weekend. I will blog more on this soon...

In the mean time I found this great illustration resource blog called Escape from Illustration Island

Danish Cross Stitch

I am really inspired by these lovely Danish Cross Stitch patterns (from a book called Vor Tids Korssting that I borrowed from a friend). So many lovely patterns and designs. Ive posted a few more on my flickr

Finders Keepers

Some of the things I collected on a recent trip to the op shops! I often find I collect things by colour and this time it seems the colours were pinks, peaches and browns...

Another place to look for collectables.. etsy

High Flyer

Its been a busy start to the year but I'm loving the flowers and warm summer mornings. This flying bird is a model made for me by my friend Lynda. It's based on an illustration I drew for my business card.

One Sleep Till Christmas

Only one more sleep till Christmas! Time to get wrapping presents and baking goodies!

LATE 80S MERCEDES

I have been working hard lately getting things sorted before Christmas - so much to post and so little time! The latest project I have been working on is design and imagery for the band LATE 8OS MERCEDES (my husband just so happens to be the bass player :) ). They will release their Live EP at the end of January so if you have never hear them before be sure to check out their website. Recently they were mentioned by Pete Wentz from Fall Out Boy for their cover of 'This Aint A Scene'. Have a listen here..

The Illustrationeers Stall

The Illustrationeers stall was a great success! Very hand crafted and lots of great illustrations from talented students to choose from. Thank you to all those who came along or sent their best wishes!

The Explorers - Zine

Screen Printing

Ive been a bit slow to post these on here but a few weeks back I was having a screen printing frenzy! This was the first 2 colour image I made of Captain Cook from a series of illustrations about Explorers. I will be selling some of these prints at The Illustrationeers Stall this coming week. More to come...

The Illustrationeers End of Year ShowDown!

I have been busy helping to organise an Illustration Stall for the Mediarts End of Year Show which starts next week! Come on down if your in the neighbourhood.

My friend Wendy helped me out with the invitation. Her character is the pioneer wielding the gun, mine is the captain wielding the telescope - guess who's going to win! :)
