Break-a-Lead

Filming for Break a Lead went really well last Wednesday. Chris and Simon are very professional and we managed to film three new podcasts. Hopefully they'll be edited and up soon.
I'll keep you posted.
We had some great ideas generating as well. Should be some interesting stuff developing on Break a Lead.

Archibald Portrait - Rod Hardy

I met with Rod Hardy yesterday for a sitting for the Archibald.

He's a fascinating man - director of December Boys with Daniel Radcliffe, X-Files, Burn Notice, The Mentalist, and Battlestar Galactica to name a few. And he's mixed with some BIG names...Michael Caine, Pierce Brosnan, Henry Winkler. There's plenty more.

You can read all about him on his website http://www.rodhardy.com/index.htm

It's fascinating talking to him. We don't talk a lot about Hollywood, but rather life and all its strange synchronicities.

I'm very much enjoying the painting process and Rod is very generous with his time.

Break a Lead

On Wednesday I'll be filming 3 new episodes of Break a Lead with Chris and the team from Pro Eye. Should be a fun day.

You can see the 2 we already did on Breakalead.net

Painting on Air

Next Tuesday at 9 in the morning I will be 'Painting on Air' on 3MBS fm.

The amazing Tony Gould is going to improvise over a painting that I do.

We'll chat at the start and then paint and chat at the end to see if the experience was what we expected.

It will be a terrific challenge to get the painting done in such a short time limit.

I'm hopin to develop this into an exhibition if it's successful.

3MBS is on 103.5 fm in Melbourne, but you can stream it from the internet as well.

holidays in fairyland

It's been a long time since my last post, but I"m back. I have been fortunate enough to visit Canada since since my last visit here. My gorgeous partner Stewart took me and thoroughly spoilt me. Considering the number of times I fell over, though I think I needed spoiling. I did get a black eye and have to be rescued from the lifts with my bad lift technique. Great fun though ...and SOOOOO beautiful.
I'll post some photos soon and maybe create some art from it all. It was like fairyland all full of ginger bread houses.
