FOUR PRINTS FROM RUDIE RASHID AVAILABLE NOW

Dangerfork first worked with Rudie last year in the Ink Dots Black Spots exhibition which was a show the exhibited 50 different tattoo artists from all over Australia and New Zealand. Rudie Rashid's prints were a sell out and for good reason. He grew up collecting comics and always thought he would be a comic artist, this coupled with his obsession of basketball led him into the fabulous world of vintage sports logos. His artwork is very illustrative with thick bold lines and works great with the screen printed medium. So we asked Rudie if he had any other ideas for prints he might like to pursue and he came up with 'The Classic Bully Ballers'. Printed with three colours, on a buffalo brown art kraft paper, these four characters are sold separately or as a set. Its only a small edition of 25 and with a price thats right of $40 each or all 4 for $100 you can't go wrong. BUY NOW

Carbon event

I spent most of yesterday in the city at ACMI for 'Carbon' which promised to be amazing, but I felt came up a little short! If you where present you would have been witness to a serious spread of opportunities but not many that actually materialised. In short this event was not curated or narrated well if only they had spent some time in preparing a direction instead of trying to fill the bill with names! It turned into more of a portfolio showing than an event worthy of the price tag. I can see what I need on the web, also I would heva been happy to have a brief video summary of each artists work presented at the start of each session, then each speaker could draw on relevant folio pieces to support their discussion... The only time the discussions seemed to touch on anything relevant was when led by the questioneers at the end of each seesion. Myabe a guided presentation would help those nervous presenters through, it's not a given that all creatives are natural public speakers, or even organised enough to be presenters. I hope events like this take off, AG ideas & Semi Permanent support our creative culture, and they are needed to nuture our future but we really need focus.

I hope today runs smoother for those who attend, and I hope that next year the event is far better.

Tassie Tree Mural (updated)

This is a commissioned work for the Redwig family in their family home recently built in late 2010. The mural was completed over a 4 day period - this time lapse was shot manually as I didn't have my capture software and laptop - so it's not as fluid as some timelapse - but it still works. Enjoy
