Week 31: 26 October 2020
Lichii, Metal Rock!, 22 October 2020
Hey! Thanks for looking at my art, I originally got inspired for this piece while I was listening to a few songs. Recently, I've gotten much more into the band Gorillaz and their music, and so while listening to one of their songs, I came up with this piece!
Lynda Williams, Big old bumble bee, 19 October 2020
Diane Cardinal, Chilli, 19 October 2020
Angela Morrissey, Emu VIII, 18 October 2020
This is an artwork of a rather sinister and angry looking emu. I love painting emus because of the looks on their faces. I painted the background using colourful brushstrokes for something different. Both the background and the painterly style of the emu are great examples of Expressionism. My style!
Dr Michael J Leach, Ode to Vision, 19 October 2020
Michael is a poet and epidemiologist at the Monash University School of Rural Health, Bendigo. His debut poetry collection is Chronicity (Melbourne Poets Union, 2020). This concrete poem was inspired by vision.
Bridie Margaret O'Toole, I just keep dreaming (digital), 20 October 2020
Julie Kala, Birthday Dress, 20 October 2020
Painting from a photo taken in Australia 1965. My cat Murphy is assessing the piece.
Grant, ABYHNHO, 19 October 2020
New art for Bendigo based music project "Abyhnho", which is a mystery acronym. If you can work it out, send a message on Facebook to Abyhnho.
Eric Kala, Untitled, 22 October 2020
Kerry Punton, View from Rock of Ages, Maldon (Oil on board), 23 October 2020
Kathryn Harrison, Learning perspective in Covid Times, 24 October 2020
This week, I have been looking at improving my art by learning perspective of faces and movement.
Andre Sardone, Swirly Pod, 25 October 2020
The stem is made of many parts I machined on my lathe. When there is the chance of having a moving part I find it very hard to resist the many more hours of work it takes to allow the movement. However, these exercises are all learning experiences which add to my knowledge base.
Ian Dodd, Sunset, 25 October 2020
This is a combination of Pyrography and acrylic paint on old pallet wood.
Kathryn Lehar, Way In (collage made from natural materials), 23 October 2020
The material used in this piece is discarded Willow fencing and watercolour. The design is an improvisation of a quilt pattern.
Jane Coburn, Don't Argue, 24 October 2020
This began as a rough drawing on copy paper, just before the Grand Final started. During play, I added pen. By then, I knew it would become more than a quick sketch, as Richmond were going to win! So this week, I'll re-do the drawing onto better paper.
Jin Turpie, Gol D Roger from One Piece, 22 October 2020
Jane Ineson, Say Less, See More (graphite), 24 October 2020
This is the only 5 second life drawing of the week! To draw like lightening often contains more than a snapshot!
Iain Wilson, New Order… (spray paint on paper), 25 October 2020
Arosha Kaluarachchi, My Son (Aaron), 25 October 2020
This is in fact my first attempt to draw. I thought I'd give it a shot using the bit of extra time created by the lockdown. Most importantly Aaron loved the drawing, that made me happy.
Paul Casey, Coronavirus Dream (acrylic on paper), 25 October 2020
Drawing with paint and light washes to try and capture the haziness of some dreams.
