girls...

i've taken my sweet time but the girls are now ready to go. i played with the fabrics by doing a little handstitching for mona and opened the jar of sparkly things just a tad for marilyn. they are both currently at swell gallery trying to charm their way into new homes. i have a hendrix on the way and some gumball beauties that i'm excited to show you. will update soon.

POP photos.

here they are. the photos that best describe my latest exhibition. my biggest marilyn acquired a new home. happy times for her new owners. it was a good night enveloped in support, love, sweetness and bold colours on canvas. i appreciate the people (more than words) who came and supported me. the mojito's brought mintiness..the chocolate shots a sour face and friends and family made laura very happy indeed. more popsical work on the way. expect more from marilyn...a smirk from mona, a sultry monochromatic lennon and a jailhouse-rocking king. wait till you get a load of the giant gumball collage...i'm already chewing on the canvas in anticipation. have a great week everyone. stay tuned for a pop hit later in the week.

spreading the joy.

the awesome foursome.

POP!

exhibition update is here...

the following works will be part of the new SWELL gallery exhibition opening this friday night. the works range in size from a little 5"x7" to a 30"x36" canvas. i'm working on a few others that are for the stockpile which include a sexy 16"x20" monochromatic lennon and fabric collages that will make your eyes pop. i'm loving that word right now...i'm so into that era of art that i'm dreaming of giant spray cans and marilyn's cheeky smile. photos from the exhibition will be posted over the weekend. thankyou for all of your support...it is always appreciated. enjoy.
