Geisha Dreaming by CateTownsend

Acrylic, and gold leaf on paper. This work started out as therapy. I was applying the background in swirls and with my hands, throwing paint at the canvas and using many different paintbrush’s, it was an eratic outpouring of emotions. When I stood back and looked at it, I saw this serene geisha appearing out of the swirling chaos. It was so calming, I don’t know what she is dreaming about. Some of the composition was worked out with the help of photoshop. / /
Picasso style self portrait by CateTownsend

This is my first painting “acrylic on canvas”. I guess I consider this to be my best piece of work so far as it has inspired me and encouraged me to move forward with my art. Because my teacher told me “Keep painting” after viewing this work it has encouraged me to do just that. It has a special place for me, and has pushed me into the world of creativity. Although mirrored on Picasso’s “Women with book”, here this painting has so much of me in it. /
A Japanese Garden by CateTownsend

Acrylic on paper. No brushes were used, paint applied with hands, cardboard, plastic, sponge, and directly from the tube. Many layers of paint. /
Metamorphosis by CateTownsend

Acrylic painting developed from analytical moment (its an upside down version of the original). This painting was developed from a series of drawings of a stool that was wrapped in paper and tied with string. Many drawings of the original stool, many drawings of the wrapped stool and lots of processing. I called this work Metamorphosis as it reminded me of the journey the caterpillar takes turning into the moth or butterfly and the many hazards it faces. The many layers and complexities of such an amazing journey.
Freaked Out Fish by CateTownsend

Since this has been my most popular image I would like to donate all profits from any sales in any form ie card or print to the Phoenix bush fire appeal. Mixed media on paper 70×44 cm Framed original available P.O.A. / ctowns60@hotmail.com. Lots of mediums used on this work. Acrylic paint, graphite,gesso, paper, gold leaf, ink just to name a few. Sold four four prints private sales.

Red Sunflower with a Spider by natayo

30”X24” water mixable oil on stretched canvas
Seagull by Tom Godfrey

I did this pastel/watercolour sketch as a demo for my pastel group. My aim was to show that by combining watercolour and pastel, some interesting effects may be achieved. The Seagull ref was from a photo I had taken at Kiama a few years ago. I used 300gsm watercolour paper and then applied a layer of clear pastel medium in order for the pastel to bind to the surface.

Fourth artwork in my animal ICON series. Original artwork measures 11×15”. Mixed media: Oil pastels, colored pencils, art pens, metallic paint pens, and metallic foil embellishments on textured dark purple watercolor paper.
The King by Tom Godfrey

This was a commission which I finished a short while ago. I was asked to render the tiger, as closely as possible to the image they had captured and the background colours had to remain fairly true to those that were there. I was though, allowed a little artistic licence to pop in the waterfall :) and I changed the cliffs a lot to make the scene more dramatic. Just here for the viewing, as I don’t like to sell pictures of work I have sold, even though I retain the copyright.
