I had a great opening and felt very privileged to be in this exhibition Going Gaga with Dada, held at Brenda May Gallery, Sydney and curated by Akky van Ogtrop.  The show contained some amazing historical works by artists such as Max Ernst, Theo Van Doesburg and Joseph Beuys... to name just a few.  Max Ernst is one of my favourite historical artists as well as Hannah Hoch (and Arcmiboldo) and I am going to make an artwork out of the room sheet as proof of my participation in a show with them!!

Some great works by contemporary Australian artists too of course!!

I am a finalist in the Grafton Regional Gallery’s 2012 Jacaranda Acquisitive Drawing Award!!!!  Ebb and Flo' with surrealist, canoeing and boudoir inspiration have got me in this year! Yeah!

Against the odds, such is the ilk of these art competitions.  Of the 418 entries from 310 Artists the Selection Panel selected 52 works by 52 artists.

framing costs next.... but hey who can complain... have more works on the go and in the pipeline.....

Finished this set of drawings, Ebb and Flo', surrealist in manner, and quite detailed in areas.  Pencil on Stonehenge. Inspired in parts, by dream, canoeing down the Clarence, Ashfield residency, and vintage boudoir photos.  I havent forgotton Swing, etching and aquatint of the blog post before last.  Still working out some colour ideas, sunset in yellows and browns so far.
