Seems like a lifetime ago since this happened. We released a collaborative limited print edition that I think will be very special - signed by both of us and a percentage donated to Support Act. Buy it from Kate’s or my website. Please be patient with shipping though as we first need to get out of this lockdown to go and get them signed. Free shipping.

Devastated over the situation here in Sydney and to top it off our exhibition at @magamnsw was moved to mid next year. Here’s a little detail of a portrait I am including in it. The paintings are of some of the most inspiring and beautiful women I have met in my life and I am forever grateful we crossed paths. My life is richer for it. And I can’t wait to see you all on the other side of this.

I’m calling it on this one. Recent commission for a @flinderslanegallery client. Commissions can be really tricky but extremely rewarding at the same time. This one took a lot longer than expected but happy with how it turned out in the end. What’s your take on commissions? Enjoyable or necessary evil?

🔲 There’s an elfin and puckish energy to artist @kathrinlonghurst , she looks into the heart and soul of each subject and has the technical ability to draw that out of the eyes of every portrait she paints, making her canvas’s feel as though they have come to life.

None more so than her portrait of @therealkateceberano which is a finalist & won the #PackingRoomPrize for this years 2021 @archibaldprize Australia’s premier art prize, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year.

Kathrin’s story is extraordinary, a child of the cold-war era, growing up behind the iron curtain in East Germany. Much of her work captures the contrast between war propaganda imagery and the glamorous promises of the other side of the wall. However in place of the fearsome male figures of power are female warriors.

Kathrin lives in Sydney these days, though her is work sought after across the globe. She served as vice president for Portrait Artists Australia and was the founder and director of the innovative Project 504. She completed her 18th solo show in 2021 and has been a finalist in numerous awards including the Archibald Prize, the Doug Moran, the Darling Prize, the Sulman Prize and the Percival Portrait Award

There are certain paintings that are more special than others especially if there are of your kids. Glad I held onto these two who will eventually be left to my children.

Here are some of the preliminary composition sketches for my painting of @therealkateceberano
We settled on number 3 eventually.
I always envisioned some red highlights as indicated in the drawings but eventually opted for a red background as well.
