Johannes Erwin Eugen Rommel (15 November 1891 – 14 October 1944) was one of the most famous German field marshals of World War II. He was the commander of the Deutsches Afrika Korps and also became known by the nickname “The Desert Fox” for the skillful military campaigns he waged on behalf of the German Army in North Africa. / / Rommel’s military successes earned the respect not only of his troops and Adolf Hitler, but also that of his enemy Commonwealth troops in the North African Campaign. An enduring legacy of Rommel’s character is that he is also considered to be a chivalrous and humane military officer in contrast with many other figures of Nazi Germany. more / / Black and white conte pencil on brown paper.

In my most recent series: ‘Face Navigation’ , I have used the fluidity of watercolour painting to express a personal perception of self and others. There is an awareness of the universal human condition through facial expression, and in some cases I create a progression of images, exploring the changing perception of a person by deconstructing facial recognition. As there is a shift over time in attitude or mood, there is a corresponding shift in visual interpretation. Sizes variable, average sizes 250×102 mm. Watercolour on rag paper. / / Web: www.littlemalopgallery.com.au For availability of original work please contact Robert Avitabile at: METROPOLIS GALLERY / 64 Ryrie Street / Geelong, Victoria, AUSTRALIA 3220 Telephone: +61 3 5221 6505 www.metropolisgallery.com.au

Ref / with special permission from model and photographer pluschkind I bumped into this fantastic image while browsing the photography on deviant art and the photographer/model was happy to let me try my hand at drawing it. / As you can see though, I ended up painting it. oils on watercolour paper. I’ve never tried that before but i had no black watercolour paint so I thought, why not!? So all I used was black oils and turpentine to get the greys, like with watercolours. / The way the white cuts up the image reminded me of an image we’d looked at in my visual culture class, the artist had digitally erased lines through the person to create white tribal markings. this erasure gave me the idea for the title of this piece. This Portrait is available in my 2009 calendar!

Portrait of a little girl on a swing with her cabage patch doll. This little girl lived across the street from me at the time I did this piece..She is about four years old, watercolor pencil and water color on coquile paper . I add water as I go with the pencils but don’t get it too wet..I spray it lightly when finished and use a blow dryer / I used Coquille paper 3ply…Cold press it has a stiple surface and is predictable meaning no surprises. It helps me achieve the effect I want and is very durable. It’ plays a big part in my images. I like to get as much depth as possible in my work…I achieve this with light and contrast in my color..People also identify my work wilth the color that I use..It has kind of becomes a trade mark . I also strive to have a unique quality in my art…. Something all of my own. / This piece hangs in a Doctors Office in Sick Kids Hospital…It was a lot of fun to do…She was having such a great time on that swing I had to capture it on paper. I like to capture movement in my work and a feeling of part of my subject…Who they are…a part of their personality…Something you can take away with you after viewing such as a feeling of happiness..You can tell she loves her doll very much because it;s on the swing with her…I use props a lot in my art work of children..This way when the child sees the art work she can identify with it by seeing their doll or teddy….My work appeals to various kinds of people especially children or places children will be. /

Self portrait _everybody’s cleared the room / and they’ll dress you up / stand you in all the right places / words like honey / smile as they change your faces / with no regard to you at all / and you find they treat you like a paper doll (Paper Doll – Rachael Yamagata) _

A double layers made with 2 pics,one of me at 21 years old and a crushed piece of paper.I was surprised by the effects and I thought this image represent so well a poem that I’ve wrote and how I felt at that time- / .............seams like in another life….. Letter to my ex. My thoughts or my first life / are images of fire-camps, / summers that last forever / in our teenaged heads Ridiculous existential problems / Love was called «baby» / Possessed by the devil, I guess / All of a sudden,the funnel closed. I gave you my soul , / God knows where you hid it / The zombi ’s blaming himself / crying ,bad expertise. Sadic and redundant karma / immeasurable lonelyness,for sure / but quietely the justice / follows the road and matures. I was so old in spite of my youth / limited time,floral aroma / laughs filled with caresses / You broke me like a stupid toy. Why this frosen legacy / My angel,my animal / cold heart,dark , you left me / Oh ! Yes I still ache…........ Lettre à mon Ex Mes pensées ou ma première vie / Sont des images de feux de camp / Des étés qui s’étampent à l’infini / Dans nos têtes d’adolescents. Problèmes existentiels dérisoires / L’amour ça s’appelait «bébé» / Possédée du démon, faut voir / Très vite ,l’entonnoir s’est fermé Je t’ai donné mon âme / Dieu sait où tu l’as mise / Le zombi qui se blâme / Pleure,mauvaise expertise Karma sadique redondant / Grande solitude ,pour sûr / Mais la justice tout bonnement / Suit son cours et devient mûre J’étais vieille,malgré ma jeunesse / Temps si court,parfum floral / Rires empreints de caresse / Tu m’as cassée, comme un jouet banal Pourquoi cet héritage glacé / Mon ange, mon animal / Coeur durçi ,noir,tu m’as laissée / Ah! oui ,j’ai encore mal…… Gisèle alias Micmac july 2002
