Sunday Street Art

Slightly more advance than the next image below but shot in more muted light

This view of the Cathedral from Town Hall is getting a bit more finished

 

Sketches for foreground people

 

Later I went portrait drawing, here's a sketch Mustapha did of me, I forgot to get a shot of the one I did of him

GENETIX

It is Not something new in life Genes are always interact in order to keep the balance ,we call life, balanced enough to keep a collective of Atoms behaving under specific orders and laws for some years,days or hours ,minutes ecc enough to support the function of one particular form ,that we call A  Being.
Genes always mingle with other genes This is Not the problem
Problem arises when a collective of "beings" in their short life understand enough to intervene and alter the existing order Without any knowledge or will for knowledge of the initiall reason that the particullar genes follow particcullar hard earned evolutionary info to keep the present forms in accordance with their present enviroment.
Without this Knowledge secured , it is extremely unstable to change or mix anything . is IRESPONSIBILLITY
THE ANCIENTS repeatedly insisted into the avoidance of creating Chimeras
Chimera is a creature, made by human with genetic mixing to serve spesific purposes
It seems that some time in a veeery looong past ,human civilizations have mastered the genetic know how to a hi degree and where produsing creatures for servants \slaves and something happened
Something big enough to stay in the tradition and Warn us ,Us ,the affected humans by this event ,to Not Do it again Or at least when we do Be very carefull
Chimera is assosiated with anomalies of all kind and destruction by Devolution
Ancient Hellenic civilisation was proud but wary of the chimeras that were acting still and all about the tech of creating Chimera

The City from Glebe

 

The start, a lot more to do

street art

I did a stack of portraits last night in Newtown, which was nice, I've got some shiny new signs

Earlier in the day Idid some work on this painting, which still has a way to go

Girls with Hats

finished version - earlier ones are below

My sister Gabrielle with a couple of friends at the races.

This is just a beginning, I'll post newer versions as I work on it. There's a bunch of paintings and drawings of Gab here

On George St

I put my hat out for a little while on a Monday evening just to see how I went. (if you've got a few spare coupons in your paypal account, please make a contribution through the link in the sidebar)

The same guy with St Vitus' dance is in both drawings I've done outside the cinemas recently - the other is straight underneath this post

Hungry! George St

 

Portrait drawing outside the cinemas.

Niall and Gabrielle

The finished painting - earlier versions are below

Slowly getting there, 

A painting of Niall and Gabrielle I started last year and put aside and have now come back to. There are earlier versions of this painting here

It's still a bit rough, and I'll make it more fleshy and finish the background etc but I'm a lot happier with the likenesses. Newer versions are higher

First show at new TAP gallery, featuring the Sycamores

If you squint a bit maybe you can pick out Leslie Dimmock in the middle somewhere, as well as Peter Hayes, The Sycamores, plenty of others, and a few paintings including one of mine.

TAP have moved downhill a block on Palmer St, now at the apex of a funny fake piazza lined with restaurants

From Town Hall Steps

 

Almost finished, I won't be taking it back out on the street, just do a tiny bit more on it sometime at home

The top half. less blurry

oThe painting after I did some more work on it today

A partly crappy  photo - I can't see paint gunk or anything on android camera lens but it's started blurring a section of the image - like a cheap awful Nikon I had briefly. with a hopelessly distorted lens.

Even before I left the house I got last week's sky all over me

 

A detail of a couple of the foreground figures, including the charm seller who is always in the area.

Below are older versions 

The Falun Gongers disappeared with the chance of showers. If they want to get it they'll have to model for me!

Anyway the ground is almost done, but a bit empty of life, people and trees

Beginning of a new painting of the Cathedral next to Town Hall, with Falun Gong banners at the bottom. They are convinced it will be a propaganda triumph

Outside Rough Edges

 

finished

finished or close to it

 Rough Edges at 231 Victoria St, Darlinghurst, beside St John's Anglican church. This is an almost complete painting, I won't probably take it back to paint more on location, but might retouch a little at home from photos

On Victoria St, Darlinghurst

I've just arranged to have an exhibition in 2 or 3 months at BuzzzBar cafe in Newtown, dates and title coming soon. Anyway I'd best get cracking on some new paintings as the walls are expansive and good for larger stuff than much of what I have done recently.

This isn't finished, just the ground, it needs plants and more people etc

Scanner!

I've shown this picture a Newtown coldbiter who used to be a school art teacher, but I just got a working scanner again, so here's a lot better quality image

Iktus Chicken

On King St Newtown

Last Night at the Record Crate

 

 Louis Burdett and Azo(hope I got that right - can someone let me know if it's wrong) with Geoffrey Goodes sketchily in the foreground

 

Wenzel Carmichael

Stu, Sabrina, James and Loki and Valkyrie
