I came home the other night to find that the cat had eaten my homework (or my artwork, to be more precise). Thankfully, I had already transferred the image to my deck, ready to paint up for PipeUp 2010 – the last ever Paperhorse Studios exhibition. Come along and celebrate the end of an era with a fine collection of decks by a plethora of Australian and international artists.

As part of my marvellous plan to get creative again this year, I’ve decided to learn a little printmaking under the watchful eye of Simone Tippett at Union Street Studios, Stepney. I had my first introduction to drypoint today and am excited to admit that I feel naturally drawn to it. I look forward to a new, fruitful relationship with the medium. I’ll edit in a few photos from today’s workshop later on (hopefully) but for now an image of the first print is up on my 365 days blog.
It’s been a while, and that’s a shame. But it’s a new year, a new place, a new time and a new creative head space. Here’s to new starts.
As part of the ST5K festival (Adelaide) I’ve put together a little project of free art postcards. If you’d like one, or if you’d like to know more about the project, head on over to:
Here is a kind of abstract taste of what I’m putting together for the ST5K / Format Festival exhibition, running as part of Adelaide Fringe Festival 09.
