Thank you to my friends (thanks this time to Elke

Thank you to my friends (thanks this time to Elke 😘) that regularly send me photos of my artworks hanging in my various galleries...this one is ‘Gravity’ hanging beautifully in @yallingupgalleries. If you are heading south for a staycation, pop into the gallery and find my other 4 paintings. PM me for further details.

A great day had with a portrait commission...I adm

A great day had with a portrait commission...I admit I’ve been soooo nervous to get this one started, having barely painted any portraits in years, but after the first hour and getting the eyes done, I felt myself relax into it. My client initially wanted an abstract (😆) but after I said that wasn’t in line with my ability, was asked to do it however I wanted. I’ve compromised with a loose portrait and have really enjoyed laying down painterly marks in oils and wonder why I don’t work like this more often! Truly, each painting is a lesson, no matter how many years you’ve been painting!

✈️ These 6 paintings are flying off to Adelaide this week. ⁣
A new gallery is opening, run by @bluethumbart and I’m so lucky to be one of the artists hanging for its opening. ⁣
⁣
🗺 Being a West Australian artist is often a tricky affair when it comes to partaking in exhibitions or art prizes on the other side of Australia...the tyranny of distance from living in the most isolated capital city on the planet becomes most apparent when it comes to art deliveries. ⁣
From Western Australia it’s very expensive! ⁣
I’ve taken a deep breath and decided it was too good an opportunity to decline. ⁣
Sometimes you just have to take a risk to expand the horizons of your art business and grab these opportunities when they arise.
⁣
😷 On the positive side, being so isolated from the rest of Australia (and the world) has kept us incredibly safe from Covid 19. We may be one of the safest places on the planet right now. For this I am incredibly grateful.⁣
My thoughts and prayers are with you if you are living in a hot spot. 🙏🏻⁣
Shout out where you are living and how life is treating you in these crazy times. ⁣
⁣
Anyway, Fly well my pretties...and please don’t come back home! ⁣

🔴 A huge thank you to @galleryaura for sending

🔴 A huge thank you to @galleryaura for sending ‘United We Stand’ off to its forever home today! 🥂🥂 Gallery Aura is situated in Kojunup, south of Perth in Western Australia. They are a unique and stunning gallery, representing a number of leading West Australian artists. I’ve loved being a part of this gorgeous space. It’s well worth a visit if you are heading south for the school holidays...Thank goodness our regions are now open for some at home travel and tourist destinations! The art galleries and their artists have had it tough during these Covid times, with all doors locked, so make sure you visit as many as possible if you are out and about seeing our beautiful state. 🌼

...and it’s done!!! ⁣ I have had the best time

...and it’s done!!! ⁣
I have had the best time creating this Imaginative realism oil painting. Oh my, THE best. ⁣
⁣
I feel like I’ve finally reached a new pathway for my art with the last few paintings I’ve made, bringing into my creations allegory and narration, story telling and idioms. ⁣
⁣
Make of it what you will. Each person will find their own story in this. I’ve come full circle to my illustration days of 25 years ago...but way more refined and technical using oil paints, instead of the watercolour paints I used all those years ago. ⁣
I’ve got a few working titles for this one...⁣???
‘Old Tales Retold’⁣
‘To whom it may concern’⁣
‘How to Sail’⁣
‘Where to Now?’⁣
⁣
Tell me your title ideas and the story you read from this piece...
⁣
I’ll aim to write my story and a few of your stories in a blog. ⁣
⁣
Now to start mulling over the next painting...crazily, it takes me longer to come up with the story and composition and initial drawing than it does to paint it. ⁣Any ideas? ⁣

I may or may not have pilfered this blossom on a morning walk one day. ⁣

Story A... I was only going to take a little piece, just to swat the pesky flies away...⁣
But, oh my, this whole branch just fell off in my hand.⁣
⁣
Or...⁣
⁣
Story B...I’m such a stickler for rules, I actually asked the home owner for a snippet as I walked past and was so grateful when they clipped off a huge amount. ⁣
⁣
Those that know me well will know the true answer...⁣

A or B? ⁣

This painting is now listed with @bluethumbart or available via me. 76x110cm oil on canvas. (B...it was B 🤓 )

Piece by piece pulling this together. This orange is the One tiny bit of this large canvas that’s Almost, but not quite finished. 😆

Oh boy. I cannot wait to show this whole painting!

Oh boy. I cannot wait to show this whole painting! Call it imaginative realism, narrative realism, magic realism, fabulism...or whatever you call it, it’s a whole lot of fun. I’ve collated this painting, intricately weaving a story together. I’m underpainting it now, ready for defining tones and detail.

Such a great day in the studio...no workmen sortin

Such a great day in the studio...no workmen sorting our renovation, family out doing their thing. Just me and my paintbrushes, @audible and my dog. Much needed for my headspace and spirit. Im soooo excited about this new painting. Stilllife, landscape, wildlife...and a whole lot of imagination. #imaginaryrealism

‘Incoming’ ! Gosh I love these goofballs of the sky. I’ve spent many moments photographing pelicans whenever I see them and capturing a pelican flying has always given me a special joy. I took this one on @rottnestislandwa, coming into land on the Army Jetty. This is a little one, 30x30cm oil paint on canvas and framed in a white timber shadow box. Available. $480. Postage included world wide.

‘Sky High’ a little one now available on @bluethumbart. Beautifully framed with a timber shadow box frame in white. 30x30cm. Delivery worldwide. 🌸 I get these beautiful creatures in my gum tree daily. Pink perfection.

So apparently it was ‘world Gin day’ yesterday...hmm? How could I have missed it? Swipe for my two gin tributes. Bombay available as original and print. Tanqueray original available and print coming soon. Pm me. 🍸🍸🍸

Covid time has helped me finally unleash my inner

Covid time has helped me finally unleash my inner surrealist, or maybe it was just time to go a little crazy. 🤪⁣ Yes, it’s a little weird. Strange times call for unusual work.
This piece is still needing some fiddling and adjusting of areas but I thought I’d post it anyway, it’s been a tough week and I need some of your cheering from the sidelines...the vase will be pushed back with some glazing and stronger shadow work. ⁣
Anyway, there’s lots of symbolism going on with this one...I’m not giving you any hints! Make up your own story on what this piece is saying (if anything😜). ⁣
I am absolutely loving the thought process and research prior to this new series. I’m including all my joys...stilllife, wildlife and backgrounds that are real to me, using my own happy snaps. ⁣
It needs a title...1.2.3....Go! ⁣

Did you know that I do select paintings as limited

Did you know that I do select paintings as limited edition prints? I don’t push them hard as originals will always be my priority, but I do have my favourites professionally photographed to make my works accessible to those that just can’t stretch to an original. I use a local Perth company to photograph and print my paintings and they are ridiculously close to the real one...without the texture of paint. So darn close it’s crazy....and they can be made to whatever size your space or budget allows. If you like something you see on this page, ask if it’s available as a print. I’m ridiculously behind in listing my prints on my web or on @bluethumbart, so if you like it check! This one sold today on Bluethumb and is being printed on canvas and stretched in a large size, then popped in the mail to fly east. Thank you once again @bluethumbart ...My lemons have been popular. 🍋🍋🍋

The second in my new series...a traditional still

The second in my new series...a traditional still life with a twist. Imaginative realism is my happy place. This is ‘Scarlet’ and my take on the Stirling Ranges in Western Australia and it’s beautiful flora and fauna. This is an oil on canvas, 30x40cm.

The start of a new series...leaning into some imaginative realism, with a touch of surrealism and some definite traditional realism. Feels like coming home. A good spot to land. ❤️💙🧡💚💛

I can finally show a little commission I did recently...a first anniversary gift that was beautifully received today. ❤️ This is ‘Clover’ oil on canvas, framing by @artpresentations. 🐾🐾🐾

Here we have the final painting from my abstract background. ⁣
⁣
It’s been incredibly rewarding to combine two genre... Realism and Abstract. ⁣
⁣
At most stages throughout this painting I had two palettes at hand...one of acrylic and one of oil, with two sets of brushes and mediums employed. That itself was a challenge, but I wanted to keep adding and subtracting to the acrylic abstract background, whilst working on the figure in oils. ⁣
⁣
It’s heading to the Great Wall of contemplation for a few days and I’ll no doubt make a few changes before the week is out. ⁣😆
⁣
It’s 100x100cm. Acrylic and oil on canvas and is available. Pm me for more details. ⁣
