After Six: A FECK Exhibition

"Slug Life #1: Sam"

"Black Cancer"

Here are a few images from the After Six group exhibition at the Brunswick Street Gallery. Despite the fact that I've never actually organized a show with this many artists before, it's been a really great experience and I look forward to curating more exhibitions in the future. The show was a big success, thank you all for coming to the exhibition and showing your support.

After Six Slughoods

My slughood sculptures for the "After Six" group exhibition at Brunswick Street Gallery on March 8.

Slugface Test Subject 01

This is Sam, the first of the three slug head sculptures that I will be using for the "After Six" group exhibition in March. I'm still trying to source for more realistic acrylic eyeballs... although these very blue alien ones are starting growing on me.

"Inner Worlds"

Café Lua's new exhibition "Inner Worlds" by Adrian Hogan will be launching this Friday 14th September! Crazy illustrations to be expected, so catch it before the art comes down 16th October.

"The Ordinary Children"

New art going up at the café this Friday 17th of September from the talented and beautiful Ayano Takeuchi.

Ayano was also the winner of Café Lua's "First Time" art competition held in December 2011.

Lauren Olney makes her return to the exhibition world with "Little Omens" at Café Lua. The launch party will be on Friday the 13th of July from 6:30-8:30pm, hope to see you there!

Exhibition with Laura McAuliffe.

Here's the poster for Café Lua's second exhibition with the talented Laura McAuliffe. Her piece "The Solidarity In Confusion" was one of the highly commended winners for Café Lua's First Time art competition that was held in December 2011. So come drop by on the evening of April Friday the 13th for the opening, or be sure to pop into the café and check out the exhibition before it ends on May 9th.

Café Lua's first exhibition of the year.

I have just started my role as a curator/designer for Café Lua, and 2012 will be kicking off with "Little Bits", an exhibition by the talented Jessie Ngaio.

So come down to the opening night on Friday 9th March as there will be a guest performance by experimental sound artist CV Slime 800 and his modular synthesizers, a raffle and a game of "Pass the Parcel"... which Jessie promises will blow your mother loving socks off.

Sketchbook Projects 2011 digitized.

My submission for Sketchbook Projects 2011 has just been digitized! It is currently exhibiting in San Francisco, and my "Boys and Girls" themed sketchbook will continue traveling around America for the rest of the year.

You can flick through the entire sketchbook here.

Small Works 2011 Exhibition Dates.

I will be exhibiting all of my Sky Children series (the first of the three is pictured above) at the Brunswick Street Gallery as part of their Small Works 2011 competition. Each illustration is framed and on sale for $130 per pop.

It will run from the 14th—30th of June with the announcement of the winners on the opening night, Friday 17th June from 6pm onwards.

Brunswick Street Gallery is opposite Bar Open at 322 Brunswick St, Fitzroy.

The Sky Children.

This is Es, one of the three Sky Children that I'm submitting for Small Works.

Small Works 2011 illustrations.

Here are a couple of illustration ideas for mapping mind and emotive patterns projected by sky children. I'll be submitting them as my last minute entry into BSG's Small Works 2011.

Animal Bookscapes website is up.

I've made little pieces of music to accompany each book I've made for the exhibition, like little soundtracks for the mini one page stories.

You can see the other books and hear the soundscapes at www.animalbookscapes.posterous.com

Exhibition Updates 2.

Here's one of six of my finished pieces for the group show Don't Quit Your Day Job. We'll be celebrating the opening night this Friday 1st October from 6-8pm, so come join us!

Exhibition Updates.

With only two more weeks to go, I'm running pretty late with my animal books... three big books need to be glued shut, four little books need to be cut and illustrated, but my plastic animals buddies are having fun playing with each other while they wait for their new homes which makes everybody happy.

Exhibition catalogue is about 80% finished as well, and I think it's looking pretty hot so do pop in for the exhibition and pick up a free copy (then maybe buy a copy of Still Warm!).

Don't Quit Your Day Job.

Don't Quit Your Day Job is an exhibition held by eight lovely ladies and myself at the Hogan Gallery on 310 Smith Street, Collingwood. We decided to team up and combine our superhuman abilities to create strange and wonderful installations, photography and illustrations. I've also been designing promotional flyers and a little catalogue to be handed out on the opening night.

Mad talented artists involved include:
Veronica Fisher
Aviv Gazit
Jane Hamilton
Bobby Harrington
Ned Karam
Hannah Miller
Jessie Ngaio
Lauren Olney
Frankie Pan

Also, Alison Wylie aka Flo One will be spinning some killer tunes for the duration of the opening night and Hannah and I will be launching and selling issue one of Still Warm too. See you there!

Opening night: 6-8pm Friday October 1, 2010.
Exhibition dates: October 1-14, 2010.

Exhibition books.

The office exhibition (currently called "Don't Quit Your Day Job") is just around the corner, so lots of time has been spent cutting up these pretty books I've found and deciding how my imaginary monster friends will be interacting with my zoo of little plastic animals. Here's an early mock up of that idea for the promo postcards with a gorilla and his imaginary friend saying hello.

Exhibition dates should be early October.
