Thu, 17 Nov 2011 08:27:00 GMT

‘A New Leaf’ is the launch of a new gallery and retail direction at the wonderfully eclectic Vancouver Cafe in Albany. It features papercuts, jewellery, paintings, and homewares by Albany artists Tracey Margetts and myself. And it will also be the launch of my brand new website – designed by Ubik and the team at Tall Traffic.

For the launch Alison will be whipping up her usual tasty fare, West Cape Howe will be providing their award winning local wines, and “Slap my Thigh‘s and Call Me Barbara” will be singing. (That’s Tracey’s accapella group). So if you are in Albany come along to a night of celebration.

It’s November 25th @ 6pm, at the Vancouver Cafe, 65 Vancouver St, Albany.

New work

Thu, 17 Nov 2011 08:28:00 GMT

"The Bird and the Key", papercut, ink, 2011.

One of my new works coming up in the Art Trail launch Exhibition at Rickety Gate Wines in Denmark.

"Runaway Boat", papercut and ink, 2011.

Another work which is going into "The Boat Show" at the Vancouver Arts Centre for the Art Trail.

"Anna", lasercut and ink, 2011.

Yes I have my new lasercutter now so am now able to do a mix of handcut and lasercut works - which will save my poor shoulders and hands from RSI!!!!

"Imogen", lasercut and ink, 2011.

Another recently commissioned design which I was able to cut with the laser. It creates a totally different finish to the handcut works which adds a new dimension to the work.
