Picture
The opening of In Your Neighbourhood, my solo exhibition at Manstein4 cafe was a superb soirée.  Lots of folks turned up from all over the place and they all seemed to have a good time, though none more than me.  The music from This Escapade and High Heels gave the images something of an added dimension, and I hope that my explanation of the process of designing the images made some sense.
Keep a cyber-eye out for the closing night, which should be just as much fun.

OK, time for a moratorium on the use of this woman in contemporary art.
 
 
Just finished a commission for my Sister in Law's 30th Birthday.
And here's how it got there.
 
 
 
 
For the first time in years I've been screenprinting.  Quite pleased with the results, if I do say so myself.
Sorry for the crummy mobi photo quality.  Anyway, this print touches upon one of my great loves; Whaling by hand.  There's nothing to beat it, and there are many other like me who weep at the sight of a whale that's been killed from a distance by some impersonal high-tech boat.  When you're right up next to them, harpoon in hand, and you look into their eye, it's almost as if they understand.  The image is from a photo taken on my stag weekend.
 
 
A while ago a mate of mine offered me the chance to submit a cartoon to the online art magazine to which she contributed.  I sent in this:
Wacky stuff, I'm sure you'll agree.  Then I got an email from the editor saying that it wasn't the sort of thing that they wanted and could I do something more "Arty".  So, I did some rejigging, and 15 minutes later, I sent them this:
This was far more to their liking and got the seal of approval.
