Cake Toppers

A little update on the Groom I am making for the top of our wedding cake for next year, also a sneak peak at the bride and some of the fabrics I want to use. I have temporarily used Pollo's eyes till I make some better ones for the groom as the last pair were way too big. If all else fails with these birds I found a pair of cute robots I could use!

Frozen Chook

Anyone for a frozen chook!! - this is my lame attempt at trying to make a cat!!

Artist in Residence

This has made my year

Very exciting news in the Thursday Age newspaper - Tim Burton's exhibition from the MOMA in New York is coming to ACMI, Melbourne next year and it looks like burton, Helena and Depp will be coming out for the opening - hell yeah.

You can click on the image to read the article. I think I will be spending alot of time here!

Places I wish I could be

(image source via the Toothless Cat)

Paul Romano recently had an exhibition at the Toothless Cat a gallery in Philadelphia and it would have been so cool to go check it out. Someone should bring his work out to Australia for an exhibition. The above artwork was done for the front cover of Mastodon's album Leviathan (one of my favourite bands - coming out in January!! woohoo) which I think is some of his best work.

Groom to be

Below is a sketch of the groom I am making for the top of our wedding cake with some eyes that I made. I think they might be a little bit big but will keep going and then see at the end. Then below that is the start of the actual work. I think it is coming along nicely! I am planning to use the bride and groom that I make in a photo shoot for the front of the invitations so stay tuned for that also! It's nice to finally have some warm weather in Melbourne - bring on summer (just not 46 degree's like last year).

More Works to Folio

Hope everyone had a good weekend! - have uploaded more images onto my portfolio, I don't have close ups of these works yet so there is alot of detail you miss in these shots. Will hopefully get some done soon. Have also included 2 shots of the works hung in a gallery space.
