Prism party

I felt inspired to make my first Etsy treasury this week when I looked at my recently added favourites and noticed it was a beautiful mix of prisms and crystal forms in jewellery and art prints. 

See the treasury!

I'm Presenting a Workshop in Melbourne!

I am really excited about this - I've been invited to present a workshop at Centre for Contemporary Photography in Melbourne. I'll be speaking about 'The Art of Self Promotion on the Web', specifically for photographic artists (see the pun in the title?!). I've created a course outline which will cover all sorts of important things such as writing a marketing plan, how to use social media and tips for starting an online store. It's a topic close to my heart,  not only because online marketing is my day job, but because as an emerging artist, I know I would not be where I am today without the real, meaningful connections I have made via the internet. (Awwww, but it's true!).

To read up on the course (and consider enrolling!) go to the CCP website.

Souvenir opening night photos

QCP Director Maurice Ortega and Victoria Garners-Williams

I thought I would share some photos from the opening night of my exhibition at Queensland Centre for Photography. Six other exhibitions opened at the same time so I cannot claim all these people as my friends and family. But thank you to all of those who came to see my show and made it such an amazing night!

Souvenir

Now that my exhibition at the Queensland Centre for Photography has closed, I am making the remaining unsold exhibition prints available for private sale. The works are beautifully printed with archival ink on hahnemuhle cotton paper, and framed in Victorian ash. Each print is numbered in an edition of 10 and signed.

Please view the works on my Souvenir portfolio page and make enquiries directly to me at lieslpfeffer at gmail.com. 

New UK Stockist: CultureLabel

I'm pleased to share that I now have a UK stockist! CultureLabel invited me to open a shopfront with them a few weeks ago! I was quite excited about this because some of the best art galleries and museums in the UK also have online stores with CultureLabel including the Tate, the V&A, Saatchi Gallery etc. Good company!

To celebrate, I have released a brand new print with CultureLabel, called Sunset Over Mountains (pictured below). This print is not available anywhere else.

All of my prints with CultureLabel are 30x30 cm square and printed on lustre photographic paper.

Golden Half, Petri, XA-2

New photos on my Flickr taken with the Golden Half (a new favourite, glad I finally took it out of the packet 3 years after buying it in Japan!). Also some film that I double exposed with the Petri rangefinder and the Olympus XA-2. (I double exposed it because I thought the Petri was broken and figured I'd have some fun with it on the chance that some of the shots had worked).

Other news: my exhibition at the Queensland Centre for Photography opens this Saturday afternoon! I'm flying to Brisbane for the opening. Fortunately the lovely staff of QCP will install the show for me so that I don't need to take time off work.

And I have other great news, I have been accepted to exhibit at KINGS Ari in November this year. I've started working on a whole new body of work for the show. It's fantastic knowing from the start what space I will be showing in as I can keep that in mind when I'm thinking about objects and scale.
