Had a great time getting involved in the latest Without Walls show.
Was at Ambush Gallery in Waterloo a couple of weeks ago with some really good artists getting involved.
Check out their site here http://with-out-walls.com/
Everyone designed a T-Shirt to sell and also put some works up on the wall.
For the first time I had a go at building my own frames. It turned out pretty good.

Heres’s my entry for the Cricket Art Prize.
Trying to capture some of what it felt like to sit in the slips for hours and hours on a Saturday afternoon.
The tiredness. The pasty-white sunscreen mixed with the bright red sun burn. The annoyance as a terrible batter hangs around after a catch gets put down.
Wanting to get home so you could meet everyone later at the pub.
Done with pencil, paint and charcoal.

Here is my entry for the Doughboy Pizza comp.
It started with the shape of a pizza in the bottom section and it went from there.

My big sis is getting married soon. How exciting. She asked me do design her invitations for her. The theme for the wedding is a kind of retro carnival thing.
Here are some of the early sketches. I really like the designs of those big chair swing rides. I started out with that but then we decided to do something else entirely. I chucked them up here anyway because I liked the sketches.
Then my sister decided to go with the other idea we had going. Having the bride and the groom depicted on the panels of Circus Caravan. You can see the original sketch and then what it looked like when it was finished.
