VIEW IN MY ROOM
Hive Queen had a complicated conception. It began as a dream many years ago of a dark, underground world where everyone was masked and each had a dog to lead them around. I have made some sketches and will attempt to draw them in 2019. As I was creating a world for these characters in my mind, I came up with the Hive Queen as a sort of 'Big Sister', in a 1984 style underground, fascist state. The drawing is on Stonehenge paper what jagged edges on the vertical sides. I used 6B pencils and various erasers for the drawing itself.

Australia
I grew up in Ireland but have lived in Australia for more than 20 years. Fine art books were the picture books I leafed through as a child. My favourite artists were Durer, and all of the Dutch masters. As most of the reproductions were in black and white, in my formative years, I thought these fantastical images of saints and dragons and warriors were photographs from a more interesting world that no one had told me about. As an adult, I realised that I my pencil drawings were attempts to draw the denizens of this fantastical world I grew up with but I have still not found. In the early 1990's I received my best training in art when I worked as a street artist over three summers, doing caricatures for tourists in Spain. Drawing constantly for hours on end, day after day, honed my skills, and in my off times I drew the streets around me, or doodles from my imagination. I aim for ambiguity in my drawings—to keep the viewer guessing. What is going on? Is that person a friend or foe? Perhaps if they stare at it for long enough they'll find the answers.
