Let there be Guppies
I have just discovered guppies. How did that take so long? It’s funny how many things I’ve been completely disinterested in until I drew one and suddenly shazaam. Instant obsession! It happened for a while with ships when I went down to the docks one day with my mum to paint the old tugboats at [...]

In the shadows of the night
You may have seen me working on this one at recent markets. Well, in the last week I’ve moved it and the cafe rabbit down to the living room to finish them off (too hot upstairs!) and here he is. I’m still making slight adjustments to the chair and background tones… but otherwise he’s about [...]
Too hot for the studio
So I’ve relocated downstairs to paint. One day I’ll have a nice air conditioner or at least well-paid polar bears waving ice cubes, but until then, there are some days you just don’t want to be up here. Tin roof and me caught between the sun and the hot air rising…
There were people up here [...]

And making new prints, pictures, cards, printing business cards, ordering bags and books and [...]

As many of you would know I’ve been slowly accumulating work for my first solo exhibition, mainly painting at the markets and whenever I can grab a spare hour. Which isn’t very often. Some [...]

tracing, revivification and travel
I have three things to say.
1. I love my lightbox. (Thank you Peter, lightbox-maker.)
2. I am gratefully much less dead now.
3. I will be in Sydney this weekend for ASA madness (Barbara Jefferis Award, AGM and Colin Simpson Memorial lecture – being given by the eloquent Shaun Tan) stretching from Friday evening till Sunday. So [...]
update on the update
Apologies for the silence – I’ve well and truly had my head down working! Here’s an update on that update…
The maps are done. Typical me – when they could have been stylised and simple I had to do all the little houses and sheds… There were two maps in the end, created in black watercolour [...]
