WBHD exchange exhibition opening

The Wide Bay High Desert exchange exhibition opening is scheduled for the end of the month! Six Aussie artists and six New Mexican artists have each produced 4 works, two of which will be sent to show in Unsettled Gallery, Las Cruces, New Mexico and two to be shown in Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery.

The two galleries will be linked via Skype for their openings which will be happening at the same time.  Click here to see BRAG's promotional publication, which features one of my works.

The artists have been finishing their works and packing them securely for their long journey.   My two canvases, taken off their timber stretchers, rolled and  squeezed into a pvc  pipe have arrived in Las Cruces, New Mexico safely.

The  canvases have been restretched ready for hanging.

Meanwhile, Adrienne had organised a 'meet the makers'  workshop  at BRAG. This was a most enjoyable get-together apparently.  Unfortunately I was unable to attend.  c  x

I posted my two works that are off to New Mexico last week.   The works will be exhibited in the Unsettled Gallery late  in August.  Two other works of mine will be shown at the Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery (BRAG) at the same time.  There are 12 artists taking part in this year's exchange exhibition.

I am still producing a lot of digital prints and I will probably plan a Brisbane exhibition for the best of them.    I have just become a member of the Queensland Centre for Photography (QCP).  That will be interesting.  I am keen to go to the first meeting which, will be in August.

The members  apparently give each other a lot of support, and importantly they offer critiques, which is very helpful.

Attached is another of my new works.  The series I have been working on utilises photographs I took of Adam Anderson a couple of years ago.  Working on the photos once converted to black and white has been really exciting for me. I am learning a lot about Photoshop Elements on the way also. Let me know what you think of it!!!  I call the piece 'Underworld Interior'.  It is almost finished.  I hope Adam likes it!

Talk Art soon!
