Night Time

For my HSC Body of Work (completed a few months back), I composed a series of illustrations accompanying a poem in bound form. My style has developed quite significantly since then, but I thought I'd post some pictures anyway. It was my only focus for quite some time there :)





Nocturne Acquaintances

For anyone who is residing in Sydney, my next exhibition is on the 13th of December at North Sydney's Community Centre (inside is the "Changeable Art" exhibition space) - a group exhibition with two other very talented women, entitled "Art & Soul" including photography and mixed media.

The exhibition is for one day only starting at 10 am, and I have about 13 new pieces on show, so come and say 'hello' if you feel like dropping by :) Plus, it's right next to the markets!

Address - Civic Park, 220 Miller Street North Sydney

A little MORE introduction..

I'm currently working on a series of picture books that I hope to have finished by early 2009, and am in the process applying to art schools in Sydney.

A little introduction..

Here are some (poorly taken) photographs of some illustrations from my previous exhibit, "Realms Of The Fantastical". These are copies though, I sold all but one of the framed ones, 12 altogether.

I pretty much always write a phrase or some other oddity below or aside each drawing. More often than not they are nonsensical.

















1. "I've Sewn Myself A Hat"
2. "Alas! A Haircut Is Not Necessary When You Are Melting"
3. "Travelling Pants And Boots Are Best Even If You Aren't Going Anywhere"

Hallo.

As an aspiring illustrator I suppose I thought I'd set up this blog so that my goings-on can be followed...by anyone interested. My drawings are all a little odd or "rum" if you will, and I work primarily in Moleskines.

I'll post some of my illustrations from my last (and first) exhibition soon.
