Adelaide Fringe 2016

I will be exhibiting at The Red Lime Shack, Port Adelaide during the Fringe.The dates are 12th February to 14th March The show is titled Arthur Illuminated. I've taken inspiration from the verse of Arthur Rimbaud and created five large (150cm x 100cm) canvasses. I prefer to not publish pictures here until they are actually on the wall but the painting below of the hare in some gorse was the first I worked on.

Alongside the paintings will be a couple of other oil paintings and several drawings in pastel/charcoal. The venue is a popular and excellent vegan cafe right in the heart of the Port. The owners are heavily involved in developing the Port area's artistic and community ideals. The coffee is worth a visit on its own but even a dedicated baconologist such as myself can find plenty to enjoy on their menu.

Latest stuff, 2014

Couldn't post the one with hands before as it was for friends and had to be sent to UK for them to view first.

The other is the first in a large series I want to do. Large as in six paintings and large as in 5ft x 3ft - the biggest I've done. They are to be based on images created by the French poet Rimbeau, this one from "After the Deluge".

Unfortunately, this lower one is from a phone pic and not too clear. I shall try to get a better pic taken at some point.

Falling, Falling, Falling Asleep.

First post of 2014... shocking lapse. I've completed three oil paintings this year but until two of them are delivered I shouldn't post them. So I won't. However, I can show this one, the last to be completed.

All going well and pleased with some early sales. There was even a queue at one point! Here's (some) of what is on display.
