About The Artwork
I am doing a series of post punk pop art drawings that pay homage to the artists whose paintings and images have influenced me the most over my artistic lifetime. The artists will include: Dali, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Frida Kahlo, Brett Whiteley, David Bromley, Tracey Emin, Toulouse Lautrec and Albrecht Durer. Holbein may get a look in as well. Rather than doing straight portraits (boring and predictable) I have chosen to portray my subjects as apes of various types with a reference to the styles those artists are famous for (eg) Van Gogh's yellow. It helps me to demystify these artists a bit because they have always been a bit godlike in my eyes. It also introduces humour and an edge. After completing the drawings, I photograph them and digitally manipulate the images to add more detail, particularly digital graffiti.

Australia
I am a post punk pop artist working predominantly in conte and charcoal on paper or cardboard as well as playing around endlessly with my images on my ipad using Sketchbook Pro. Occasionally I stray into painting and ceramics and am about to embark on learning screen printing and woodcuts. I live in the bayside village of Mornington, Australia with my husband, cats and multiple visiting lorikeets. My son has qualified as a doctor, so has finally left home, leaving me free to invest in my artwork at last. I work out of a converted factory space called Artspace8, which I share with graphic designers, painters, a ceramicist and a textile designer.
