I have two works in an upcoming group portrait exhibition, Physiognomies. This show features a range of international work - including an Andy Warhol video installation. This is the second consecutive year that I have exhibited with the Primo Piano Living Gallery in Italy. The Physiognomies exhibition includes works from my series “faces”. My prints consist of graphite illustration and digital design and they draw on ideas relating to hybridity. Within these portraits of machine-creatures, I explore the possibilities of morphing the animate and inanimate.The exhibition runs from June 2-23. Check it out online or pop in in you are in Italy’s glorious south.

Sight:
Gloria’s dream was to grace the great stages of the world.
So it was with a sense of sad acceptance that she remained in the local family circus.

The award-winning Australian born, Irish bred and New York based picture book writer and illustrator, Oliver Jeffers, reminded us how to really entertain a crowd at his appearance in Melbourne yesterday.

Oliver Jeffers was fabulous in his talking-reading-drawing session today at dymocks Melbourne.

My new sparse studio. I now have heating and am ready for a great winter wonderland immersed within technology as I animate my new picture book.

My students tell me about an important new skill: it involves maintaining eye contact with someone while you text someone else; it’s hard, but it can be done.

As I sit in the bay window within the silence of Varuna’s dinning room, I wonder what the outside world is doing. This is my last morning of my writing and illustration fellowship - I have been so absorbed in the macro-micro world of my new book that I have not thought about Barak Obama, Libya, or making school lunches for what seems like an age. I think I am ready … but it’s hard to tell.
