A Moment in Gertrude, with Aesop Fitzroy

2026-04-30T11:45:59+10:00April 15, 2014|

Perfect. I could begin and end this post with that one single word. Honestly, I could not have asked for a better way to celebrate my Gertrude Streetscape etching than with Aesop Smith Street Fitzroy. My work hanging inside 'my' local Aesop store that's in 'my' neighbourhood with 'my' divine Gertrude Street community. There we all were, celebrating a street that is common to all of us, a very unique street and [...]

Doug Moran National Portrait Prize Semi Finalist

2024-10-18T11:09:02+11:00October 10, 2013|

Absolutely gobsmacked at this achievement, and incredibly confused at the same time. Who would have thought a horrifying life changing event could bring so much reward. Nevertheless, I'm going with it and am stoked to be considered for semi finalist. Self Portrait (art and chronic pain) will be heading up to Sydney next week for the next round confirming finalists for the National prize. View all the semi finalists here, read more about [...]

The Greek Australian Cultural League of Melbourne (GACLM) Antipodean Palette 2013

2024-10-18T11:09:02+11:00June 20, 2013|

... and I'm participating, again! This time with two posters I prepared for The Santorini Biennale of Arts, a fabulous competition calling for posters with the theme, Design A Wish for Greece. Sadly it was dumped without explanation (or refunds) and the lovely Vasy Petros coordinating the Antipodean Palette exhibition asked if I'd exhibit the prematurely retired entries. The exhibition aims to support visual arts in the community and to foster a spirit [...]

And the winner is… ME!

2024-10-18T11:09:02+11:00May 11, 2013|

St Luke's exquisite palette exhibition 2013 My first ever art prize win and how perfect that it's been awarded by people whom I treasure, and people who inspire me, not only with my art my practice but with my life also. Sending out a huge thanks to Louise, David and crew at St. Luke Artist Colourmen and Langridge Artist Supplies. Who would have thought that all that chronic pain could lead to this [...]
