EXHIBITIONS 2016
Frogmore House Spring Art Show- 17th August 2016. A set of six images of personally generated fractal images printed on canvas. Plus another, though large, canvas print of a drawing of ‘Ali’ . 21st June 2016
NB: Quote:” Fractals are made through using algorithms and set mathematical equations. Personally, I find them fantastic, because, having made 1,000’s of these over the last 9 or so years, I have learned that these computer generated images have an infinitesimal limit as to how far these images can and could go!
They are as imaginative as Nature can be, and are as Natural or as man made in there imagery , (which I found to be quite amazing). You will notice one of the prints does look quite anthropomorphic, and as natural as a plant, and another though blue, is very tube like, and likened to a musical instrument shape, or even pasta!
Another is like a wrapping on a present, including bow. Another like green metal, and another like a flower and as bright as a sunny day. The last being like a cone, a hat, with the optics moving and effecting the eyes to look again. I have made fractals that look like you are looking through misted glass, and some like patterning on a fair isle jumper! Amazing!”

2nd October 2019, seven works bumped out of Frogmore House at WSU as the art coordinator there has now moved( after many years) to another WSU campus, so will not be able to conduct any more art shows. However, several of my other works will be staying to grace the walls in the Conference room there up to the end of the year when the campus wraps up.
‘Beach’ 2017 , and also a set of six works in the series of ‘Fractal Designs, 2017’ beautifully printed on 16″ x 16″ canvases. (These are prints on canvas from fractal generator designs I generated).
However, staying until the end of the year are: ‘Mobile Visual Diary II’ 2017, ‘Friday’s Floral’ 2017, ‘ Chris McBiss’ 2017, ‘House Flowers’ 2017, ‘Of Interest’ 2017, ‘Flip Recline’ 2017. These are very large prints of the original drawings, professionally framed in hand made black wood . Approximately 1 metre x 500cms. They look amazing on the walls there, and this is why Kathy asked if they could stay so that the graduates at the end of the year will have their environment happy and arty rather than beige beige beige… and more beige.

At this time, the closing date for entering into the Fisher’s Ghost Art Award at Campbelltown Art Gallery is coming up at the 8 September 2021.

I usually take the works in my car there, but due to the Covid lockdowns cannot travel outside 5 klms. But I have a new work titled ‘Untitled Abstract’, and it is still on the canvas so will be much lighter to send.
At this time,(03 Sept 2021 I have entered, and I’m waiting with hopeful anticipation and crossed fingers ( plus ankles, eyeballs and kneecaps,) that I am accepted into the exhibition as a Finalist for this years prestigious event!
