New News

So my biggest news is that I will soon be moving myself into a studio space in the Toowoomba CBD - in an exciting new venture: theGRID: hybrid arts collective.

theGRID will host and feature art, drama, circus, music, live music, dance and other amazing things.

I will be creating largescale wall drawings in the space, collaborating with other artists and a photographer / videographer, holding a solo exhibition and artist workshop/s and generally having fun doing what I love. I am excited to be involved with such a hub of artistic creation and collaboration, and can't wait to move in! (Just waiting on some building inspector grown-up type people).


My other news is that I am designing an EP cover and posters for a talented local acoustic singer / songwriter. Donnelle Brooks likes birds, so I am currently working on related imagery for the design. With a deadline for the EP to be completed by June 1, I will have to work quickly! Here's one of my initial sketches for brainstorming; a butterfly / owl hybrid. (Buttered owl, perhaps?) I will definitely post the finished design when it is, in fact, finished.



In other music news, in case you missed it, I designed the cover photo for Inigo's facebook page. Inigo have a beautiful sound, and I am sure they will go far, so it was really nice to be asked. Birds seem to be the theme of the moment now though!


Until next time, Danishhhhhhh
