I'm participating in a fundraiser for the Riverlands Montessori School next month, for which 27 artists are supplied with 27 small canvasses each.

So I decided to do these cupcake paintings.
Yes it means I get to slowly eat them as I work on each one !

I just got back to Perth from a quick 2 week break in Japan, This time staying at a friends house, much easier than a hotel !
The shot above is of an old castle in Odawara ( well that's just the gatehouse ), and below a shot of beautiful Yoyogi park.

I still have to sort through 500 photos, missed the Yokohama Triennial ( damn they were still setting up the day we went ) but I managed to see "Looking east" a collection from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston

Time to get back to work !

Until the 20th of July I have some pieces in a joint show at Elements Art Gallery, 131A Waratah Ave Dalkeith

Along with fellow artists Diana Johnston, Delma White, and Peter Barker
The show focuses solely on Still Life paintings, and there are some great pieces in there - well worth a look
