Bowerbird by Firedrake
The closest thing to a political piece I have managed so far. / / The bowerbird constructs an arch-shaped ‘bower’ out of twigs and brush, decorated with trinkets (usually blue) to impress others. / / What do you feather your nest with? / / 30×25cm, watercolour/pastel/ink on canvas. / / / / By the way, those are not easter eggs. Nope. No chocolate in there.

Helmet by Firedrake
A few weekends ago I went along to the Back Alley Atelier exhibition at the Brunswick Street Gallery. My favourite piece (it was difficult, there was so much amazing work!) was this one by Chris W , ‘A Spartan Future’: / / / / It was spiky, shiny and mask-y, so I was inspired to create a beastly version…watercolour, pen, chalk pastel, silver leaf on canvas. He is 31×31cm. / / I’d like to invite speculation as the to purpose of the eye-piece. Telescope? Night vision? Infra-red? Maybe some kind of cool kaleidoscope thing. / / / / This angle shows the silver leaf parts: /

Prince by Firedrake
Behold his beastly majesty. / / A big new addition to my bestiary – watercolour, pen, chalk pastel, copper leaf on canvas. He is biggish…35×28cm. As well as on the crown there are little bits of copper throughout. / / / / Crappy shot but it shows the scale: / / / / Shiny shiny / Shiny beast with feathers!

polar bear acrylic by Tom Godfrey
An acrylic painting I did in 2002. In certain lights it looked almost as though it would swim right out of the pic and into the lounge :) I used an airbrush, for the first time to get the light beams effect. He is a Johannesburg zoo polar bear in real life, or should that be “unreal” :(

Monk Seal by Buddy Sears
I fell in love with this guy the moment I saw him. The painting is not too serious, but I wanted to capture the playful nature of this endangered seal. Oil on Canvas

A couple months ago I sent in a letter to a gallery, totally not expecting a reply. Well…I got one today, and here it is: We have reviewed your artwork and feel that is in line with our gallery’s vision. We think your art is creative and would like to offer you the opportunity to show with us. Attached is our contract, please read it over, and if you have any questions, email us at info@infusiongallery.com. If you accept our opportunity, please fill out the contract and application and return them by email. Thank you for submitting, Jill Abrams / Infusion Gallery Coordinator Well…I read the contract. They want me to pay 250.00 for a 10 ft. space (not including set-up and take down), 25 day exhibition, and a year of representation on their website (non exclusive) with a 65% take, AND they are in L.A., I am in D.C. (paying for shipping, etc.). I went to their website and thought it was interesting, and I guess the whole “idea” of getting into a gallery is, like, WOW…but I just don’t get the upfront fee. It sounds like a load of bull when it comes right down to it. Do they really like my work, or are they just looking to make a fast buck off the front end, from ME? Or maybe, I’m not being realistic and I’ll need to dig deep into my own pockets to get my stuff “out there”. ?? I know NOTHING about the whole gallery process, but I do have enough horse-sense to question this. Please, anyone with any info. or knowledge on this subject, ENLIGHTEN ME! Much Thanks, Mechelle

Bamboo in Water #5 by coppertrees
Technique inspired by Qu Lei Lei,wrinkling or crinkling is used to provide texture. Crushed paper is used after balling it up and flattening it. / Creases are made and then gently run a brush over the high points. The majority of these disappear when mounted. Ink Blotting is also done with this method. I have done this and then added watercolor to it.
