Painting in the Pilbara

I'm organising a ruff n' (not too) dirty painting trip to Yarrie Station in the upper Pilbara for August. 10 days that will change your (artistic ) life. Final dates and costs not fixed yet, but probably 10th to the 20th.
We have permission to camp at the old homestead. Fantastic country - granite hills with remnant boulders, spinnifex plains and the de Gray river. No instruction -first in best dressed. Let me know ASAP

Big brushes and new classes!

Having fun with big brushes and water-solouble oils! No Christian Fletcher,this is not a self- portrait!

Also just started the new round of classes - Essential Drawing, Essential Painting (Watercolour), and BlokeArt. Some places left on Tuesdays. Call me on 0417921899 for details

Sensu pens!

Just received two Sensu pens from Think Geek in the US of A  www.thinkgeek.com

These are actually capacitive brushes for the iPad and are fantastic to use, very similar to watercolour brushes.
Some online doubts about how long they may last, but ok for now.

Last one (for now)! 'Wish I was Here' # 2

Wish I was Here # 2    - watercolour  15 x 60 cm

Whew! Deadline ? What deadline? Off to the framers. Sorry Blue Wren (again)!

Invitation # 2 ! Resistance is futile.

Reviewing work from my last trip to Paris for the exhibition. I don't think this sketch makes the cut, but it was fun to do on a sunny morning!
