Festivus at Pop goes the Easel

Festivus, the Christmas exhibition at Pop goes the Easel Gallery, opened last night. Here is the invitation, featuring my Hung Parliament, reinvented in a more festive spirit by Lyndsey!

 

And here are the subjests in a less digitally modified state:)

 

 

New subject matter:)

Inspired by my contribution to the book we made in Printmaking entitled "Means of Support" above, I decided to rework her in clay.

 

I'm calling her Hippotissimo (or should that be Hippotissima) She has already gone to a good home:) I think this might be the start of a new series of works. I'm currently working on a corsetted cow. Watch this space!

A couple of pictures of my "Mad Katter", my entry in the Hornsby Art Prize, delivered today!

 

 

Get it?

 

Thought I'd post some pictures of some of my works currently on exhibition at the Pop Goes The Easel gallery in Epping.

 

"Rabbit Food"

 

 

"Rabbit au Toilette"

 

 

"The White Rabbit"

 

 

"English Hot Dog"

 

Also on display at the See Street Gallery, Meadowbank TAFE

 

 

"Who, me?"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thought it was about time I updated the pictures of me on my home page when I realised that one of the old photos was taken in 2002!!!
As proof that the current photo is recent, here is the unedited version of me in front of my figure of Ginger Meggs at Hornsby Art Society's exhibition as part of Heritage Week earlier this year.

Green Tea

The other category that appealed (see previous post),  “Green Tea: an eco-friendly teapot”, is tailer made for my entry in  last year’s teapot show.

“Green Tea”! Get it? Bob Brown really is God’s gift to caricaturists

So I started on “Green Tea V2” only to hear the devastating news last Friday that he is retiring from politics so my entry will be passé before it’s even finished!

Not that I am a big fan of the Greens you understand. In fact, as one of my friends put it

 “Shame that Brown spoilt your plans (But then he has spoilt a Nation’s prosperity and hopes- so are you surprised?)”  

Oh well, at least I still have Julia, another caricaturist’s dream. Now just if can I come up with something on the carbon tax………………….!
