We have spent the month of November at the Surface/place Artist takeover at The Old Ambulance Station, Nambour alongside Nikita Fitzpatrick (New Dreaming Art) and Dr Sue Davis.
This initiative has been supported through the Creative Industries Investment Program and is jointly funded by ArtsCoast through Sunshine Coast Council’s Art and Heritage Levy and the Regional Arts Development Fund in partnership with Queensland Government.
Iluka Flannel Flowers
The making of the Iluka Flannel Flowers has been a slow, winding journey, but I'm so happy to introduce her to you. The flannel flowers have been depicted in charcoal, soft sage and yellow. I originally met these flowers on a walk through the nature reserve near Iluka, NSW. The drawing of this piece took many months, with multiple breaks. After a long year, I needed a break. After a restful Summer, putting her into repeat was a breeze, completed in a single morning.
The Iluka Flannel Flowers are now available for licencing projects. Please visit my Patternfield page or contact me.
Torrens University INTRO graduate exhibition
Last night I had the privilege of attending the Torrens University Australia INTRO graduate exhibition at our Brisbane Bowen Terrace campus.
It was incredible to see the amazing designs and photography created by our hard working students during their studies.
Thank you to all of the industry representatives who came along to see the incredible work.
Well done to the staff and students who went above and beyond to put the exhibition together. The image shown here is a surface pattern design created by our student Felixia Agatha for the Torrens University x Miss Shop ‘Introduces’ project.
Welcome Pattern Pulse 2
Pattern Pulse 2 by Rachael King is launching soon. The publication promotes the work of 100 talented Australian surface designers; it is the follow up to Pattern Pulse 1, that I was proud to be featured in.
This time around I was honoured with the task of writing the foreword; It tells the story of first meeting Rachael as a newly graduated designer who was ready to take on the word of surface pattern design.
