Jumpers…

Have been quiet recently with the birth of my first child and my studio still not inhabitable since I moved rooms. So, as an apology here is an invite to a great stencil exhibition in Upwey. Great excuse for a trip out of the city.
Following on from my last post, I have modified the neon deer so they are wall mounted and have some green sushi grass to frolic in. These 2 works and some Flamingos Au-go-go will be a part of the 40 x 40 BSG show opening Wed 19th December.
To everyone who can’t make it to Fitzroy next week – an enormous thank you for your support throughout the year and hope you all have a great summer and enjoy the festive period.
I look forward to more art adventures with you in 2013.
Have finally got a chance to upload photos of my rats and mice at the Carbon Black exhibition. Most works have appeared in previously in this blog however it was good to see them in a new space and they seemed to sit well amongst works exploring gritty industrial urbanism. This show finished a few weeks ago but the gallery focuses on interesting work by emerging artists and is worth a visit.
Special thanks to all who attended on Wednesday night and to Daniel Barfoot for these excellent crowd photos.
Some overall photos of the exhibition. (They look a little blurry small. They are much much clearer if you click on them.)
I’ll post some pics of last nights opening in the next few days.
Beware
The giant lizards are about to rumble…
Crocodiles fight dragons in a battle to the death.
The prehistoric hero of the river takes on the mythical beast of the sky in a spell-binding, nail-biting bout of fire and water.
These scaly reptiles are both threatening and tamed. In the guise of innocent pull-along toys, swinging pendulums and flying mobiles there is an air of menace. With the glint of evil, a sudden jump and snap, someone could lose an arm.
The exhibition is on June 15 – July 2, 2011 at Red Gallery North Fitzroy. Opening drinks Wed 15th June, from 6 – 8pm.
Almost ready for my new show.
Heads to go with the winged bodies.
Hopefully there will be some finished dragons in the next day or so.
The crocodiles are ready and fighting, the clouds are puffier than ever… now for some dragons.

Gone are ideas of spiders, bitey insects and meat-eating plants. Instead it is lizards all the way. More pics soon.
A trio of angry snapping crocodiles.
First works fully finished for my June show at Red Gallery.
off the kerb gallery (on Johnson St, opposite the tote) is about to celebrate its 4th birthday with a group exhbition. Included will be handful of my spinning ‘say it with flowers‘ and ‘mice in love‘ disks.
Opening night: 6 – 9pm Fri 1st April. Exhibiton closes Fri 22nd April.
The exhibition is called ‘Pirate Existence’ and concentrates on works utilising salvaged and found material. Artists have been asked to turn discard refuse and abandoned items into treasure.
My work ‘Heading home (for Mum’s birthday)‘ has been selected for this year’s BSG General Art Prize. The piece was exhbitied as a part of last year’s Togart awards however this is the first time it will be exhibited in Melbourne.
The winners are announced at the opening this Friday (10th Sept) and all are welcome.
