ANZAC day. Lest We Forget.
I saw James Clayden's art exhibition at blockprojects at Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn yesterday and was inspired by his beautiful, large scale paintings, so, I did a response this afternoon. It's Acrylic paint on A3 Arches.
I recently purchased this old photograph, which was part of a deceased estate from Winchelsea in Victoria. Does anyone know who she was? The photograph is pasted onto cardboard and backed by a page from The Argus, Melbourne newspaper. Unfortunately the date is missing but it looks like the photo was probably taken in the1940s. There is a soft albumin coating on the photo as was done back then to protect the thin paper photograph. Contact me if you know who she was. She may be a relative.
This is a photo I took on Australia Day in 2015. I was about to take a photo of this mother holding her son in Swanston Street, Melbourne when he accidentally hit her in the throat. She droped him down to the ground. In that second I photographed the pain on her face and the anguish on his as he clung to her.
Yesterday I began a painting that will be another version of an A4 oil pastel drawing that I did a few years back. Here's the drawing. I will post the painting when it's complete.
