I put in a work entitled 100 paces - i neglected to take a pic of it - but I am sure that it hasn't sold so will pop one up here when i get it back -

the gallery is great, I hadn't been there and saw that they were looking for works that were created in 2010 - it was the first proper drawing for the year. The idea was that i was to explore what was 100 steps from my door. A smaller version of syc travel

Hello 2010

so its a new year and I have a few things going on so i thought that i would start up the blog again to keep my thoughts in order.

Firstly I was lucky enough to score an internship to the NT for 10 weeks to work in an aboriginal arts community

Secondly I got accepted into the paper works show at Brenda May Gallery which is very exciting.

Third - alice and i have a show at xavier space

4th - a show with alice and vanya at Stairwell gallery

I'm currently in a show at ESP gallery in marrickville which was a great motivator to start the year off.

Will expand on the above at a later date.

Finished!

I have finished and been out of school for about 1month, its a strange feeling not having anything to do, no essays to write, no emails to check or images to upload or print. I haven't gotten any of the images from the gallery install as of yet but I've attached some pics of the final works.

more postcards and hanging

as i sip my coffee and steady myself for the day of hanging works, painting plinths and general exhaustion its exciting to realise that its all coming to a head. I dont know if i would have produced these works if i wasn't in the school environment that i was but it has given me HEAPS to go on and even though i didn't get to do as much drawing as i thought i would have - i have so much information to work from and a much better understanding of the artistic process - i hope!

All postcards out in the wide world

So all the post cards are out in the big wide world - i have about 25 or so cards that have come back, it's exciting to get mail everyday.

Postcards Back! Review

have managed to give out most of the 90 postcards and a steady trickle of them are coming back.

Had a review with lynne and marg in the project space on thursday with the other drawning honours kids and we worked together to make the room look like a group exhibition, rather than taking just a wall each as we had done when we set up in the am. Then we had another review with roger, charles and lynne again.

Both days were exausting both physically in the hanging of the drawings but also looking at how all my work is going to hold together as one body of work -

To tie it all together we decided a branding of identy would be in order, so we looked at the different ways that this could be achived. A stamp looked like it could be a good choice. A stamp that could literally brand the boxes, drawings, postcards, etc etc etc
