i'm quite upset because the painting is stuck to the easel. i've had this happen before but not to the extent that it won't budge even after attempts to pry it out with a knife

this is the right-most panel of my new painting, eve's letter from eve, a triptych
I finally got around to resuming work for my next exhibition at the Gallery Tilal. Needless to say, after a short hiatus following my PrettyGreenBullet Exhibition, I was hungry to paint, collage and play again. I have high hopes for this three-panelled piece, although I’m still not at that point where I’m confident about it. (more…)

the overtaking of a peloton of angels early on a wednesday morning, 2010, collage on fabric, 50 x 50cm
After seeing my mini-collection, The Stories of Eves, a dear, dear friend of mine asked me to create a special collage for him depicting a cyclist on a cobblestone road. I thought, how can I make a cyclist on a cobblestone road more romantic than a simple road bike on a dirty street? So I used a lovely pear fabric my mother gave me years ago, and added a few of my angels. (more…)

these are the final postcards (and the only works) i've created especially for my upcoming exhibition
The date of my exhibition is creeping closer and my stomach just had to turn on me! In the past few days, my turbulent mind was stuck in a body that wouldn’t cooperate. I’ve finally mustered up enough strength, energy and appetite to post this final leg of my postcard series. For the next four to five days, I have to work my ass off to make it all work. And when I say ‘make it all work’, I’m just talking about the menial things like getting pictures framed and captions printed. But none of that compares to a shitty stomach virus so I’m not going to complain any longer! (more…)

I found a spot on the wall. I started to scratch at it with my finger. I cringed as my nail touched the chalky surface, its tip scraping little bits of paint onto the floor. When the hole got bigger I saw an eye peeping through, then a finger. Was it scratching at the wall I was hiding in?

how serendipitous! i had to just stop work on this one because i was suddenly hit with a sense of completion as soon as i got dizzy. the vertigo i felt when i added and then removed the magenta tissue paper was so immense that i had to stop. it made my eyes go funny and my brain wobble.
My son, Y, helped me with this one. He painted some of the circles in the background. Hey, if Santa can have his elves…
