<br />
Here are the show and event dates and for 2012 and 2013. Just came up with the idea and threw it together over my (slightly extended) lunch break.<br />
<br />
Hope you guys can make it out to some of them, I've had a great, challenging and fun year thus far. It's not over yet and there's plenty more work to be done before I can have a little break over Christmas and New Years.<br />
Some of the highlights include the Moleskine Project #2 (just a few weeks away) which I'm co-curating and the solo show at Thinkspace next year.<br />
<br />
I'll be in the states for a month, from the very end of November until the first few days of Jan. Big thanks to everyone for the support this year, I'm hoping that next year will be even stronger!<br />

I was recently commissioned to draw <a href="http://alamundo.tumblr.com/">Ala Paredes</a>, the model in several of my works, in a fashion similar to the <a href="http://www.rodluff.com/">Nocturne </a>piece. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Even though it was familiar territory, the work challenged me right up to the final brush stroke. I continued experimenting with iridescent mixed media throughout. There's a lot of texture that's lost in the scan, so I included some detail shots to make up for it.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
It took much longer than I expected, as a result not only did I learn a great deal but the final image is a total surprise compared to what I had in mind when I started!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Thanks for coming back to the blog and have a great day!</div>

Here are some sketches from my trip in Brisbane- from when I went to the Prado Exhibition in the Queensland Art Gallery. I always learn so much from drawing directly from master paintings, the reproductions do them no justice. Not only is it inspirational, but I really feel that it's possible to get a better glimpse into their genius than just looking, even if it's a quick sketch. </div>

<br />
Just at Brisbane doing a studio residency at Salisbury Studios, and teaching life drawing, painting, still life and more.<br />
I scanned a bunch of the drawings I was working on just before I left, to keep this blog going until I get the chance to get more new stuff done.<br />
<br />
They are all preliminaries! The top two are almost finished, and I'll probably leave the bottom one as it is for now...<br />

The piece is based on the California Condor. Almost exactly 25 years ago, when I was born, there were only 22 left in existence. Thanks to efforts such as the California Condor Conservation project, and the captive breeding programs led in San Diego and Los Angeles, there were almost 400 individuals in Nov. 2011. </div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
Through the artwork I hope to raise appreciation and awareness of their majesty and cultural significance, as well as the battles they face to survive, such as falling victim to lead poisoning from their prey. I've chosen to use a mix of lead pencil and metallic tinted greys, with the condors locked in a mythic struggle to convey these issues, hoping to evoke appreciation for the desperate desire to be born free.</div>

Really glad with how the print turned out, I didn't know if the iridescent paint embellishment would work out, so it was great to try something new.<br />

</div><div>The idea morphed several times, the initial idea was a tree wrapping around the girl, with glowing orbs of light, kind of like musical notes moving upwards, which were the owls. I changed it into a horizontal left to right format and tried to integrate everything into the pattern, and give each element its own life and place in the rhythm of the picture. I had to explore a lot of new areas of artmaking that I don't have maps for, going in blind a lot of the time, but that's where the real fun is anyway.</div><div><br />

<br />
I'm exhibiting with <a href="http://www.thinkspacegallery.com/" target="_blank">Thinkspace Gallery</a> this weekend, and up until the show I'll be posting previews and prelims of my work to promote the show.<br />
<br />
I'd also like to announce I just sent my work in for the next<a href="http://www.thesafehousestudios.com/" target="_blank"> Safehouse Group show</a>, which will be opening March the 23rd in San Francisco. Really excited to be a part of their shows again.<br />
<br />
Here's the first full prelim sketch, just trying to draw in a rhythmic lively way and work out the flow of the piece, it's 19" by 18" pencil, coloured pencil and pastel.<br />
<br />
Please note all works are available framed through Thinkspace! Please contact this <a href="mailto:contact@thinkspacegallery.com" target="_blank">email</a> if you are interested in buying any :)<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DgAzG8Urg-Y/T01Nggq4i8I/AAAAAAAAAtM/HXsVV1uUlqk/s1600/prelim1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="614" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DgAzG8Urg-Y/T01Nggq4i8I/AAAAAAAAAtM/HXsVV1uUlqk/s640/prelim1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
<br />
<br />
In the prelim below, I kept the pose the same but I'm trying to define the owl creature and it's rotating owl heads, gathered some more reference, I decided to keep the same pose but change the composition. It's 16" by 18"pencil, coloured pencil and pastel.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-szpItQoOlMk/T01OdpgetxI/AAAAAAAAAtU/1TXmfpH2wpU/s1600/prelim2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="556" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-szpItQoOlMk/T01OdpgetxI/AAAAAAAAAtU/1TXmfpH2wpU/s640/prelim2.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I wasn't really happy with the way it was heading so I reconstructed the composition, moved parts around etc till it felt much closer to what I wanted. Had to remove the creature and replaced it with flying owls.<br />
<br />
More coming soon!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The<a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/338246312863660/" target="_blank"> Almost Blue show</a> at Phone Booth Gallery is only a week away, here's my progress on the piece and the final image.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Blue is an interesting colour, often associated with the sea or the emotions of the psyche. Particularly of interest were the deeper blues, the lower layers of the mind, where boundaries between the real and the imagined blend. It's also fascinating to note the <a href="http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/vision/colcon.html#c1" target="_blank">Blue colour receptors</a> in the eye are situated outside main focal area on the retina and there aren't as many as the Red or Green- they only constitute 2% of the total!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I started out with pencil, once I worked out the linear aspects I started blocking in the background.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YX_M7RtDeOM/T0F-kzKcB3I/AAAAAAAAAsk/omxA9vbYixY/s1600/blueprog2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YX_M7RtDeOM/T0F-kzKcB3I/AAAAAAAAAsk/omxA9vbYixY/s640/blueprog2.jpg" width="464" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">But then I started experimenting some cobalt blue pastel mixed with iridescent medium and coloured pencils to find the background, which threw the piece out of balance. </div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--P-3MVYS3cg/T0F-nHgF3HI/AAAAAAAAAss/EYvTwj7nzQs/s1600/blueprogg1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--P-3MVYS3cg/T0F-nHgF3HI/AAAAAAAAAss/EYvTwj7nzQs/s640/blueprogg1.jpg" width="464" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Had to use a lot of different media in the end to finish it, I ended up using iridescent white mixed with blue pastel to get the glow effects.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> The focus was to create an abstract pattern with the lights/textures over the whole, I'm unfamiliar with the media so it was mostly guesswork though! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I hope some of you get the chance to see it in person, as the iridescent effects are more visible in person.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Cheers!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Finally, this is a study I did recently from a vintage gypsy photo, was drawing it up as a tone study but also experimenting with mixing oils, pastel, iridescent paint and pencils. It has a lot more texture in life but unfortunately it gets flattened a lot by the scan, as the lights are iridescent and a little reflective.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

<br />
Since I joined Conceptart.org in 2003, my eyes were opened to some talented artists that will make your eyes bleed in envy, but at the same time inspire you to do better. The same artists and more formed the powerful <a href="http://thesafehouseatelier.blogspot.com/">Safehouse Atelier</a> which is already having some amazing shows and a great collective pool of artists are exhibiting together in one night, and it's bound to be an incredible show.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">The Third show entitled <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b6d7a8;">"The Humble Show"</span></b> is a silent auction, one night only, <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b6d7a8;">Sunday November 20th at 7pm</span></b>, bidding ends at 10pm. Seeing their work really made me work harder, and it still does. This is the nature of humility, first you need to be stripped away of your ego, and then you need to figure out how to rebuild. These themes were the subject of the nest drawing, which I really enjoyed working on. </span><br />
I met and stayed with some of the artists earlier this year, they are all great people and I know it's bound to be a fun night if you can make it down in person, but otherwise the works are going to be posted online <a href="http://www.thesafehousestudios.com/">here</a>.<br />
<br />
I'll be exhibiting works from Anima with <a href="http://www.phoneboothgallery.com/">Phone Booth Gallery</a> at the Art Du Vin wine bar for the group Show <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #b6d7a8;">"Clap Hands"</span>, so if you are a fan of wine or art, or both then you should definitely head down.<br />
I've attached the flyer below for details, drawn by the great, talented <a href="http://ryanmilnerart.blogspot.com/">Ryan Milner</a>! It should be a fun night, there should be plenty of great art!<br />

<br />
It's pencil and pastel, 14" by 17" And we may be doing a print run, to help me figure out the demand, let me know if you'd be interested.<br />

<br />
Painting on the left sits inside the cover. It's a bit ironic that I've ripped out pages from this new book, seems that thanks to the previous book I can hardly ever get to keep the pages inside now :)<br />
The fuzzy writing is in Greek, "know thyself" which was inscribed in the Oracle of Delphi, Greece.<br />
Should finish and post the nest drawing this week, unless something goes wrong :)<br />
<br />
Cheers!<br />

Here's a piece I'm currently working on. I had initially mentally planned for a dark background but I may go with a light one with pastel touches behind the objects<br />
