Kiss the Devil

Day 5. Daydreaming about flying away very soon.

It Just Is

Day 3. Get your tits out, ladies.

Blurred Lines

Rainbow Jellyfish. This is just a small painting that will be included in my installation for Reframed 13. I'm looking forward to sharing all the works later in the week!

Reframed 13

It's that time of year again! Reframed 13 will be opening this Friday at Bleeding Heart Gallery. I've been working crazy hours on an installation which I can't wait to share pictures of. I'm really really excited for this one. We went through the final layout last night and I must say, it's super impressive. I work with some amazingly talented people! If you're in Brisbane over the next couple of weeks, do yourself a favour and check it out!

All the things that go to make heaven and earth

A few wonderful days in Perth. I watched two of my favourite people get married. Met their favourite people, who have now joined my own list of favourite people. Carried balloons around town. Didn't cry at all during the ceremony. Didn't get sunburnt despite the heat. Went to a tiki bar. Drank far too much rum. Bought more dinosaur jewellery. Ate lots of cheese. Fell asleep watching Jurassic Park. Drank delicious cider. Went in a fun house. Ate more cheese. 

Now I'm back at home where I have to rejoin the land of work and study. And I've had to say goodbye to my brother who has moved away for work, and mum and dad who have resumed their travels after a month in Brisbane.

Bring on November.

Perth street art

On my recent visit to Perth I was blown away by the amount of street art. It's everywhere! It made me realise how much we're lacking this in Brisbane. I keep looking, but there's nothing. I don't know if it just gets cleaned up before we get a chance to see it, or if the people of Brisbane just aren't as into it. Such a pity, because it really is inspiring to see such beautiful works when you're just walking through the streets. 

Let's Go

It's finally a sunny-ish day so I'm trying to get cracking on my pieces for Reframed - a group exhibition I'll be part of in August. I've spent the morning laying in wet grass playing with dinosaurs. So much fun.. although I haven't really achieved much.. just testing lighting and settings. Tomorrow I'll be baking, drinking and cleaning with the dinosaurs.. while having a Jurassic Park marathon to keep me inspired. And there'll be lots of printing, cutting, taping, and painting well into the night. Busy times ahead!

P.S. You should totes like Reframed on Facebook to keep updated with everyone's work!

Perth in pictures

Art, food, wine, beer, dinosaurs, art deco, vintage shopping, lovely people.. what's not to love about Perth? Probably that its so far away. That's about it.
