Wot I learnded..

It turns out that the exhibition took much more out of me than I thought, I have moved back to square one again and have been unable to even do my basic walking.. I hate that even the slightest exertions make me worse. Anyway, I am coming a bit better and figured it would be…

The Reviews are in

Here are a couple of reviews the show has received so far. I think they are quite glowing reviews personally.. From Polly Morgan I went to Jennie’s exhibition last night (Olav couldn’t make it because he was sick) at Artholes, which was really good. The photos on her web page (like most photos of art…

Whew!

Well, The opening night is over, what a whirlwind event! I’ve been to so many openings but it is very different when your works are on show..I Thankyou all for coming and showing such support 🙂 It was so great to see everyone! The display was done very well, it was right to trust Tony…

Art Melbourne 06

Art Melbourne 06 previously known as the Affordable art show has been and gone once more. I enjoyed it more this year, it was less crowded, the booths were set further apart and there were some really interesting galleries displaying. I was able to talk with quite a few galleries and artists about the works…

Shag at Outre Gallery

Dr Scorpio’s Lair Image by Shag (c). I went to see a wonderful opening last night at Outre Gallery in Melbourne. Shag is a wonderful artist who has really hit it off in the last few years. His work is typified by pop-art imagery, highly geometric, strong composition and evocative of all that wonderful imagery…

Show update

the level of artwork was quite varied actually, some were very good and some were very bad (the dove soap bars glued to a canvas come to mind…) it wasn’t at all like I expected but it was a really interesting experience and well worth participating in.I am a little disappointed in that I was hoping for some constructive feedback on my pieces (apart from some of the staff saying that they were beautiful!)… It was quite like the affordable art show in a way, and I have learned heaps from the experience.

Discovery Art Show

Ok I am quite afraid of jinxing things here but I am going to risk the wrath of the powers that be and post the details of the show in which I have entered works.Discovery Art ShowI am quite excited. it all feels very real with my pieces framed and the labels and everything…. Believe it or not but I am actually quite nervous about schmoozing even though it is something I used to do quite well.

Framed!

This couldn’t be more ideal so I decided to try them out for the show I have entered. Well, not only were their prices some of the lowest I have seen but their work is excellent and the consultations on the frames was ideal. My pieces look wonderful!This all feels real now, I haven’t been writing about the show because I didn’t want to jinx it – but I am dropping the works off on Monday and the opening night is on next Saturday.I have received my labels which is an indication that I have been accepted in. But I guess I am still afraid that something will go wrong and they wont be shown!anyway the Show is the Discovery Art Show, I will post some details very soon.
