Upcoming SALA Exhibitions

This year I will be participating in not one, but TWO SALA events! SALA (South Australian Living Artists Festival) is an annual event held here in SA, and showcases the incredible talent of local artists in an exhibition bonanza over the month of August.

The first event I am involved in is in Kangaroo Island and features artworks from over 20 talented artists, revolving around the theme of insectivores. In this exhibition I have three new linocuts. If you’re lucky enough to visit KI, you can view them at Fine Art Gallery (details below), with the launch being held on Sunday August 20. More information can be found HERE

HOW DO WE LOVE THEE? LET US COUNT THE WAYS… KI INSECTIVORES

Stubble Quail Amongst Grasses, hand coloured linocut

Upon the conclusion of the exhibition, all of my new works will be available for sale on my website.

The second event I am involved in is a live art show, where I will be creating art in situ in Walkerville. There will also be a number of other artists spread out around the suburb, demonstrating how they work using different media. I will be busily painting a new linocut artwork in Crawford Reserve, so do drop by and have a look! More info can be found HERE

WALKERVILLE COMES ALIVE

A gift for Quentin Blake!

Last year a friend of Quentin Blake’s (yes, THE Quentin Blake!) came up with the brilliant idea of getting 90 Australian artists to create a work each to put into a bound volume for Quentin's 90th birthday present. I was extremely flattered to be asked as one of the 90 artists to contribute a work.

As he was one of my idols growing up (Mrs. Armitage, anyone?) I of course jumped at the chance! The theme being 'birds", I was doubly invested and this little hand coloured linocut was created. The tiny size constraints were a challenge, but I really wanted to showcase our beautiful native New Holland honeyeater and stunning kangaroo paw plant for a true Aussie touch.

I feel so honoured to be included in the book, and the fact I could add a personal message too was pretty special!

I took the time to make a full edition of the work, so the remainder of the edition can be found in my online shop :)

My little honeyeater nestled in a hand-bound volume, along with the other artworks - what an honour!

It's Christmas Time Already!

It seems like the year has just flown by, and my intentions of regularly blogging since the set up of this website have gone out the window! It has been a busy year with many different things on the go, including relief teaching in schools, regular teaching at Ruth Tuck Art School and some extra study for good measure (small business management). 

However, in the last few weeks I have managed to print a range of Christmas cards which are now for sale.  Below are the two design ranges I have this year. Click here to have a closer look at the designs on offer and to find out some more information.

Various designs from The 12 Days of Christmas (left), and designs from the Square card range (right).

I had a lot of fun with these designs, especially the 10 Lords a-leaping and the 5 Gold Rings (in this case, 5 ring-necked pheasants)!      

Welcome!

Welcome to my new website!

Please take a look at the site and my artwork. I would love any kind of feedback!

Most of the artwork featured is for sale, and I also take commissions. Please contact me with any queries.
