The Murrurundi Art Show is opening this Friday night at 6.30pm at the RSL Hall so the stalwarts of the Arts Council have been a flurry of activity setting this up. Heres pictures of my entries. I have 2 garments entered in the Fibres/Textiles section and this is the coat.

I also entered the Portrait/Figurative section with this digital image called "Anna May, after the 1920s actress Anna May Wong. I used an out of copyright b/w image of her as the basis of the manipulation. I've used this same image at larger than life size as a fabric print too...in fact... I won the Fibres/Textiles section last year with a garment made printed with this picture with the figure in a longer format.
