did someone say special offer?

Did someone say special offer? Heck yes they did!!  The truly ace ladies of Leeloo  are offering a very limited 15% off artworks currently on show in Melbourne. Everything is packing up and heading home this Sunday, so you only have until Saturday 28th August to take up this offer. How do you get such a deal I hear you ask? Well, simply mention this blog post, its that easy.  


Tomorrow is also the last day you can catch the exhibition in its Melbourne showing so make sure you stop by the gallery if you are in town between 11-5. I think I will be there for most of  the day so say hi! 


And thank you to all the lovely people who came to the opening - seriously it was a super fun night indeed!


And here are my 3 pieces - I am really super happy with these, I had a lot of fun drawing them and for once they actually turned out how they looked in my head! so rare

blackbird - on sale 

i'm looking right through you - on sale

i want to hold your hand - sold

DISBAND time!

Ok so I know you are probably tired of me telling you about Disband but I am SO EXCITED!!! So if you are in Melbourne come on down (as Larry would say!) and check it out. The exhibition is open daily 11-6 at No Vacancy Gallery 34-40 Jane Bell Lane at QV (enter the Lane off Russell Street). AND come down to Opening night too - thats on Thursday 26th August 6-9pm. It should be fun indeed. 


And below is my last sneaky peek - this piece is called 'i want to hold your hand' and was inspired by the song and the simple (and sometimes painful desire) to just want to hold someone's hand. 

Disband: Sneak Peek 2

Only ONE WEEK to go until Disband opens in Melbourne at No Vacancy. 

Jeepers! I am well and truly excited. I have 3 new artworks for you and I'm kind of pretty stoked with them.

And here is a little sneak peek of one of these newbies as a work in progress. 

I'm also excited because in addition to these new artworks I have been helping out as a kind of woman on the ground helping the fabulous Angela and Renee by finding furniture and other loveliness to use in the installation. And it has been fun, except now I have extreme retro furniture envy. Really. So here are some of the goodies that I picked up but to see what the lovely ladies whip them into you will just have to come by the gallery and see! 

Oh and don't forget to come to opening night my dears!! Thursday 26th August 6-9pm!!! 

disband: an exhibition coming to Melbourne!

well peeps i have some exciting news - remember that rad exhibition DIsband presented by the super talented and lovely due Angela of Leeloo and Renee- Anne that I was part of back in May? Well its coming to Melbourne at the end of August. Exciting right? You bet!

Even more exciting (and scary) is that in addition to 3 brand spanking new artworks, I am also helping to gather all the goodies to go into the installation. Yes, as my family and friends have pointed out I am a crazy woman. 

This is actually my first exhibition ever in Melbourne so it is doubly exciting to be exhibiting in my hometown so my peeps will actually believe that I do this stuff! Obviously it will be super fun so if you are in Melbourne please come along to opening night on the 26th August and tell all your friends to come too, it should be a fun night indeed. For more information about the opening check out the facebook event  

And in the mean time here is a little sneak peek of one of my new artworks - I'm going for a slightly different more collaged style for these pieces so fingers crossed they turn out how I l hoped. I will share some more shots over the next few weeks!

you give your hand to me

disband - opening tomorrow night!!

Disband is opening tomorrow night in Sydney so stop by and see all the amazing works!! 
i am still overseas, currently enjoying my last day in Chicago before heading to Salt Lake City tomorrow to see Temple Square and Laura Marling, so sadly I won't be there - all the more reason for you dears to go and check it out and report back to me! it should be an amazing night and exhibition - Angela & Renee have done a super super super job - thank you again lovelies!!!!! 

disband sneaky peek

so this is the last sneaky peek of my pieces for disband  because i am about to leave on a jet plane for the states in a little over 48 hours. my little gems are all ready to go and i actually am really happy with the way they have turned out. i kept staring at them in the studio and  being shocked that i actually did them which i know sounds odd. really odd. so anyway, keep an eye out for further updates via these lovely ladies while I am away and if you are in Sydney at the end of the May stop in and see it - it will be unreal :) 

 

disband : sneak peek

So as promised here are a couple of sneaky peeks of my works for Disband, well two of them anyway.  
I'm having a lot of fun with these even although I may have had a mini meltdown last night worrying that they wouldn't be finished before I go and that they wouldn't be good enough to grace the walls with works by artists such as these amazing lovely talented peeps.   But you can't stress about these things I guess or my work will be really well, crap.  


So here they are for you to peek at : 

i think i love the cat more than you  

And this one is a little more finished thus the super close up - it was inspired by something this guy said to me ' you close your eyes and think of me, I close my eyes and think of her'. not sure if that will be the name of the piece

So hopefully they aren't too lame! But I will share some more before I head off to NYC next wednesday
