Well I’ve payed the deposit, so it’s official! I’ve booked a solo show for November 2017 at Gallery 503 and am painting away with themes and exhibition titles bouncing around in my head. Titles are jockeying for position, but I think as I assemble a body of work, the final winner will become obvious.
I’m also involved in an exciting group show as part of the Inner West Council’s studio trail in May. Add in a bathroom renovation, three kids, an aging mother and a trip to Indonesia for inspiration and I’d say I’ll be kept pretty busy for the next few months.
I’m still trying to organise a show in Melbourne for this year too, but logistics and the tyranny of distance are hampering progress. If anyone has any ideas of suitable galleries or knows anyone who may want to team up for an exhibition, I’d love to hear from you.
