EGGS ANYONE?

Pencil drawing on acid-free card. 18th August, 2009

Here is another drawing in 2009 that I did at the Design Course at the TAFE College in Kingswood, NSW.

Here we see a drawing of a drawing of a bowl of eggs and a hand reaching below the bowl

as if coming through the paper drawing to grab an egg. Beside the drawing is a pair of

spectacles resting on the edge of the drawing book, with an overlapping pair of small

feathers in the right hand lower corner.A hand is close by to the left of the drawing of the drawing.

(I hope you just understood all of that! )

I was working as a Temp for a couple of months at the not too far away Department of Education, where I met some really lovely people. Eileen was my boss, and though she ran the reception area more efficiently than bleach, she was really lovely- especially with her Irish accent…My God! Just heavenly!

ELEPHANT ON THE PIANO

Elephant on The Piano. Ink on acid free card. May 2009

By the title, one would expect an elephant playing a piano. How absurd! 🙂
It was actually a beautifully decorated resin vase that became broken through a kitten

climbing onto my piano, and shoving it off in the excitement. 🙁

The symbol of the crocodile hanging onto the side of a Wheel Of Fortune, in a stellar atmosphere, has its own Metaphysical meaning.

ROLY MAT

Pastel on canvas. 2009

This is about a time when I came home to find my dog very sick. It was like ‘lifting the mat’,

and discovering that this was a dying animal. This beautiful animal’s end was near.

PICKING FLOWERS. 2008

Picking Flowers. Ink on architectural paper. 11th April, 2008

There is something beautiful about the sheen of the paper and the black of the ink

that makes the drawing light up when viewed.

TONY SAVAGERIO: UNLOCKING THE FOREIGN PSYCHE

Ink on acid-free card. 2008

This is about a UK artist friend of mine who, in the 1970’s rallied all over England for an anti drugs campaign.

The campaign was highly successful , reducing the drug trafficking up to 70 percent. Not without

terrible gang vindication. Tony was shot twice, and in this drawing shows him being shot.

Many years on, artist Tony Savages still lives to tell his gruesome and heroic tale.

BOUNTY. 2007

Bounty. Ink on paper. 2007

Another play with positive and negative spacing.

Doodling or Trance Art, is a great way to come up with interesting images of the heart and mind.

At the time I was reading about the Philadelphia Experiment, so some pretty weird

stuff subconsciously, came out in the drawing.

RELATIO INTERRUPTUS . 2007

Relatio Interruptus. Ink on acid free card. 11 June 2007.

This drawing is about how some men can sometimes congregate egoistically at barbecues,

while they piss up, and leave the women out. A mixture of bravado, arrogance, and macho attitude seems to occur.
I have found this is more in the older age bracket of the 60’s plus group, but I could well believe that where there is a barbecue, and a group of men drinking their booze, the possibility may just occur there too. Is this purely an Australian cultural habit?
