Term 1, 2025 begins soon!

 Hope you have all had a great summer and are looking forward to the start of the new year of classes! I have been away for a week in January running a colour pencil workshop in Bellingen, NSW, Camp Creative. If you zip over to my instagram page you can see some of the fabulous work the students did. Just click the icon on the right and ask to follow.

But now it is time to look forward to the new term... Fabulous Fungi (and florals)! All classes are currently full and wait list applies, contact VAS or MMAG. You will be able to follow along with some of the projects here or on my instagram page. As a taster and practice, here are a few little observational drawings I have done in preparation for the classes:

Button mushroom, ink. 15 minutes

Common gill type mushroom found in my cane mulch. Actual size is 3cm high. Graphite and colour pencil, about 1.5 hours

Button/cooking mushrooms, graphite pencil. 1.5 hours

From Laneways to Landscapes

Upcoming exhibition at The Victorian Artists Society

Location: Cato Gallery, 430 Albert Street
East Melbourne.
I am showing my two 'Dodgy Paper' ink works - 'Dodgy Fitzroy Alley' and 'Dodgy Abbotsford Shop'. A4 sized works, framed.

Dodgy paper is a unique handmade paper crated from recycled paper here in Melbourne. Fun to play and draw on!
