A little bit about my practice:

Working closely with my relationship with Nature in the 21st century, my practice follows an investigative path towards understanding modern day desires and materialism in comparison to the beauty and appreciation of nature that we have almost completely forgotten about in the man made cities that we live in.

My interest in painting started in 2007, being attacked by a crow inspired me to convey the power of nature through visual means(painting).I was and am currently very inspired by the impressionists and expressionists and how they convey concept and feeling through the medium of paint.

The life cycle, even of man made things and how it relates to nature interests me, The Idea that eventually everything returns to the earth from where it came, even the objects thought to be indestructible. Once cherished objects become void over time and lose their life when they lose their function or desirability.

Sunday the 1st, Raining again, probably!

Meeting Place: outside COFA Woolworths
Meeting time:12pm

At this point in time there is no plans for drawing destinations/ subjects. The forecast says there will be showers on sunday, a visit to the Gallery of NSW could be of interest, also I had an Idea recently as a result of all these rainy days, what do you think about choosing a passage of text and everyone creates drawings from this, even if it is just as a warm up, it may be fun and also be a good imagnative excersize.

Last week at the QVB we went inside to do some flower/architectural sketches, and we found that there was spare tables and chairs meaning still life objects are also a possibility.

see you there!

Sculpture, 1st presentation

This is my first piece in the Sculpture class this semester, It is commenting on my relationship with my asthma inhaler, and what symbol it represents, a hero to get me out of a pinch.
