In SHOP magazine

Isn't this sweet? My print Mountain Rock has been included in a lifestyle feature in the July issue of fashion mag Shop til you Drop. The issue has all Australian content, which is pretty rad! It's really nice to have support for my artwork here in Australia - I often feel like it is US and European media who notice my artwork the most! 

I have also just found my first Australian stockist for my prints (details to come!).

Art giveaway!

I am really excited to be involved in an art giveaway over at Habit of Art run by Portland artist Cathy McMurray!

Shown above are three different art collections valuing between $160-$275. All up there are twenty five works of art being given away to three lucky winners. Read about the artists involved (including myself), and then go to this post and leave a comment to enter the giveaway.

Three names will be randomly selected by Cathy on Tuesday, May 31 at noon PST. 

Good luck!

Swedish Elle Interior

One of my prints stocked with Up Your Wall is featured in Swedish Elle Interior magazine's May 2011 issue! (Click the image above to see the page full size). How amazing! 

Here's another view below of One Hundred Days Away shot in Sweden by photographer Carl Bengtsson. 

I must ask my friends at Up Your Wall for a translation of the article!

Aztec influence

I am loving Aztec patterns at the moment, which I have been researching for my next show. I was sketching some patterns today and loving the very mathematical way that shapes fit together in these designs. I made these three collages this afternoon and thought I would share. Hope you like them. Feedback very welcome as always.

They measure 10 x 10 cm, except for the first one, shown here it is slightly bigger, 11 x 14 cm.

See them in high resolution at Flickr.

I've been taking photographs of house fronts. These are from all around Melbourne.

This evening, more than ever, I hope for peace in the world.
