Possibility of prints?
So I’ve had a couple of requests about the making and selling of prints. I have made prints in the past, but these have been more of a ‘once off” where I have been commissioned by someone and then only made one copy of the image for that person (keeping the original for my portfolio).
Because I live in a small town and am required to travel about 150km in order to get to the...

Absa L'Atelier →
The news piece on our university’s Facebook page about the candidates whose work made it through the first selection process for the Absa exhibition.
I told my family about this a while back, yet somehow it is only ‘official’ once they see it on facebook. now they are calling to congratulate me as if they didn’t hear of it almost a month ago
mello-dramatic:
Everyone who reblogs this will get the title of a book to read based on their bio/posts.
Everyone. I mean it.
Please.
carotinley asked: Your work is extraordinary. I saw your entry at the Anne Bryant Gallery in East London. I hope you win the competition. For me its something special.

So my little books were selected to be part of this kind of big-deal national exhibition. Now hopefully they make it through the next round.

so
So I’m not an art student any more. I’m studying teaching for this year. But I do my best. We have to present a short lesson to the class and I’m doing mine on the female nude, because it is the bomb-diggity; and as the report I’m going to draw some annotated nudes to illustrate the points made. I’m also planning to submit something to a local exhibition. So I’m...

influences ~ Simon Subrosa
Simon Subrosa is a Port Elizabeth-based photographer/digital artist whose work, while not directly influencing my own, deals with themes and motifs that I also find attractive or intriguing. Much of his art contains elements of religious imagery, sexual acts, post-apocalyptic environments and an almost painterly eye for digital manipulation.

His photographs are meticulously accented...
grapholagnia-what asked: I <3 YOUR ART. But seriously your work is incredible. I love the books and I love how despite how anatomically based they were, they still carried a thread of fantasy. ALSO, I love the minimalist nature of your work. xxxxxxx -Sienna

influences ~ "Black Hole"
I read Charles Burns’s comic-book series Black Hole almost a year ago and it is one of the few series that reread many times over in its entirety. Don’t get me wrong; there are a great many comic books I feel much admiration and awe towards. But I have a seemingly-insurmountable amount of comics to get through and just do not feel it is fair to favour them unequally. Black Hole is the exception...

staystrong-alldaylong asked: are these your drawings? if so, you have a magnificent talent. the ideas and sketches are amazing. I can barely draw a stick figure (i usually get those disastrous too) i'm more of a maths and physics person than an art and music one. when did you realize that we wanted to draw?

influences ~ Acrosanti
[The work that has shaped what I do today]
It must start with a girl who goes by Acrosanti. I discovered her when I was about fifteen and she was the first artist to make a real impression on me. At the moment she focuses primarily on original characters based off Shane Acker’s 9 film, but when I first found her on dA she was a creature-creator. She invented the most abstract yet...

tiny guide to surviving an art degree (and being...
First of all, you need great reference material. When I was a wee highschooler, I eschewed reference images in any form, feeling them to be too derivative. Retrospectively it’s clear that I was reacting against the tendency of my peers to copy directly from their sources, so you’d get girls replicating an image from a magazine clipping in paint and calling it good. Even one of my closest friends...
