guess what
this is my 200th art & etc post
and a bicentenary requires at least a little celebration don't you think?
will you settle for a couple of bits a bright news and a few more pics of my SotE work instead?

Circular bookforms created from discarded atlases
and the good news stories?
I've shared on the BookArtObject blog - that I got word today that our exhibition proposal for Impact 7 was successful (wheeeeeee - we're off to the international multi-disciplinary printmaking conference this year hosted by Monash Uni in Melbourne)
I didn't add in that post - I'm also heading to the event as a solo arteeest - I've been selected as part of the 'open portfolio' bit of the event as well (wheeeeee)
oh and did I tell you - my loooooong book 'serpens volumen - arcus pluvius' (rainbow serpent book) has been short-listed for the inaugural Manly Library Acquisitive Book Art Award - so it will be wheeling its way to Sydney this week (I wonder if the exhibition visitors have as much fun with the beastie as we girlies managed...)
I packed up 'codex interruptum' today
and for the first time in a very long time I have time to enough to breathe and enjoy the glorious autumn days (watch out garden - here I come!)
** thanks everyone (including all you anonymous folk lurking in the corners)

Congratulations on the 200th post, your fabulous photos of your installations, and all the best for 'serpens volumen - arcus pluvius' - woo hoo!
ReplyDelete200 posts - wow, well done. I remember when...
ReplyDeleteLove the 'flowers' on the wall. I know some doilies they'd sit well with. Will see you at Impact.
Congrats on so many things Ronnie - but mostly on making it to the place where you can breathe again. It takes a lot out of you and feels like a marathon so enjoy those long deep breaths and the smell of your soil and garden. I love the way the encyclopaedias came together for SotE and am thrilled at your success as the individual artist at Imprint. Fancy you heading to the smoke and sounding like you think you could enjoy it!?!?! Fab - hope to see you t here...we'll see!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!, congratulations!, congratulations!, congratulations!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are very well worth each one of them, and as for finally having the "time to breathe and enjoy the glorious autumn days...", this last one is super well earned! Bravissima!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish you continuous success in all you touch!
Very well done!! Success is its own reward and no doubt you are feeling that all the work (both hand and brain) is vindicated. I look forward to seeing the results the next marathon effort.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Ronnie on all your successes, how exciting. Have enjoyed seeing your installation images very much. Enjoy the garden and have a wonderful year.
ReplyDeleteNicola.
