Artful Agenda 2010

Monday, June 29th, 2009

An Artful Agenda invited me to contribute to their charity project again this year. With the range of items even more broad than last year, this year you can get daily planners, lesson planners, August to August diaries, and appointment books. The cause this year is supporting arts education in public schools.

You can buy the art-filled diaries online here!

I was also invited to take part in the Feed Your Soul project, hosted by Indie Fixx. If you want some free art, to brighten your home or feed your soul, go check it out!

Incredible Print Show

Friday, May 29th, 2009

I was invited to take part in ‘The Incredible Print Show’ at artstream studios, NH, USA.
Showing throughout May and June, ‘The Incredible Print Show’ is nothing short of a massive lineup of artists, from all over, come together to present an exhibition of affordable art. An initiative to keep the art world ticking over during the dreaded G.F.C!

All forms of prints and printmaking were welcomed, resulting in a diverse and broad range of work on show.

I created two new works for the show; one-off monoprints with handpainted detail. I call them my Buttercup Bluejay’s.

The show is up until the end of June, and all works are for sale online here.

Curvy 2009

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

The beginning of April saw the launch of Curvy 6, both book and Sydney exhibition. “CURVY 6 features the world’s most exciting female graphic artists, illustrators and designers in one highly collectible, limited edition book.” Once again I was thrilled to be included in the book, but this year I also got to include 3 works in the show too!

The Sydney exhibition is on until the 17th April at:
Mori Gallery, 168 Day Street Sydney (between China Town & Darling Harbour)

The Curvy 6 book is now on sale in good arty bookstores, and online here.

I’m off to Sydney for the rest of April to see the show, re-stock the AGNSW with my cards, and generally have a good time. My online store will be closed until I return and restock it again in early May. Please check back then for a new range of cards and limited edition prints.

Women of the World

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

During March, the Bunker Gallery (in an actual undergound bunker) in Coffs Harbour, hosted an international exhibition titled ‘Women of the World’, to coincide with International Womens Day. Showcasing 91 works, by 51 different female illustration and cartoon artists, from 23 countries!!! Countries far and wide, like Azerbaijan.

I was lucky enough to have 2 of my works included in the show, alongside a diverse range of intelligent work, in an amazing and unique art space.

Commissioned Wedding Invitations

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

A few months ago I was asked to create a commission and turn it into wedding invitations for some friends. The initial painting is bright and clear, but for the printed invitations we toned the colours back a bit and had them printed on cream cardstock, giving them a more vintage, art nouveau feel. Now the invitations are out, I’m looking forward to the wedding in April 🙂

Cards at the AGNSW

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

As of this month The Art Gallery of New South Wales will be stocking a range of my greeting cards in the Gallery Shop. My cards are printed on high quality cotton cellulose paper, and there are over 30 designs to choose from. I also do all that I can to not use plastic packaging.

The Art Gallery is open 7 days a week, and is located at The Domain in Sydney.

Christmas Commissions

Monday, December 29th, 2008

The months leading up to Christmas are always busy with commission orders. This season was no different. Commissions this year spread from the Blue Mountains to Winnipeg in Canada!

An Artful Agenda

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

An Artful Agenda is a hip, unique daily planner with a hand-drawn image for each day of the year. Each week’s artwork is centered around a theme such as vintage toys, yoga poses or sock monkeys.”

The 2009 diary/daily planner featured art from 18 artists, and my artworks are all through it.
They sold out fast! But production for next year’s planner is already underway!
