My first entry in an artwork based competition
(I have entered two design competitions before)
ART AND ABOUT SYDNEY 2012
Vertical Canvas
Gallery 565 George Street
SYDNEY
Exhibition from 25th September 2012 – 21st October 2012
SELECTED FINALIST
I am an artist from the North Coast of NSW, utilizing my Graphic Design skills to generate thought processes in Adobe Photoshop. I then translate my designs onto canvas using mixed media, ie acrylic, ink, pastel, gold leaf etc. I also work intuitively with colour straight onto the canvas letting the flow of paint dictate the composition. I can relate to the Bowerbird, as I am drawn to blues and turquoises, collecting my treasures from the artists universe to produce my work.
