I did the maggies for the Lightmares residency project. I love the warbling of these amazing birds, it makes me feel at home and sounds corny but very Australian. However, my childhood memories are of them attacking me on my bike and me having to wear an ice-cream container on my head!!! I think every Aussie has a maggie story.

Lightmares at 19 Karen Ave on the Goldy
Well i am so slack. Last one was in Dec, sheeez. So better tell you whats been going on and show you some new images. At the moment I am involved in a show at 19 Karen Gallery at Mermaid Waters on the Goldy. They transformed the gallery into a studio for myself and 8 other regional artists to work in with Mymo. a germand artist who came to work with us. It was great to be able to spend time working with other artists instead of just alone in the studio. So the work we did over the 3 wks is now int eh exhibition Lightmares.
