Artists are invited to submit work for a ‘Creature Show’ to be held in August at Sydney’s Canvas Gallery. The exhibition will bring together artists, illustrators and fashion designers to design their own creature. Contact Zoe Sernack for more information. It was great to hear during the week that Julia Dirgee is displaying some of her illustrations and comic works at the Mocca Art Festival in New York City on the weekend of June 10. She’s a very talented artist and the exhibition will be well worth catching.
Australian singer/songwriter, Sarah McGregor, has her second album – Beautiful Thing – coming out in a few weeks and you can get a sneak preview of the title track at the Oz Track website. Troy Mendham has just updated his website with some cool stuff and there’s some nice illustration work on Antonia Pesenti’s website. I also like the work up on New Zealander, Daniel Maule’s website. Incidentally, thanks for all the interesting Canadian trivia that came in for our Most Serene Republic CD giveaway. I learnt some truly bizarre bits and pieces including that ‘in Quebec, an old law states that margarine must be a different colour than butter’. Hmmm. Go figure.

Lost At E Minor: Music, illustration, art, photography - from Australia and beyond » Al Heighton Tuesday 22 August 2006
[...] Al Heighton was a runner-up in the Creative Futures Review competition in 2005 and his work has been described as having mixed messages peppered with adult humour, a bit of childlike innocence and a twist of his own North of England working class humour. His client list includes the Guardian, Financial Times, Plastic Rhino magazine, Digit, Computer Arts and Arkitip. His work is inspired by ‘a movie; a overheard conversation; perhaps a bit of literature … It will start out life in a sketchbook for certain’. He has some work featured in the latest installment of Nib Wax. [see also Marcos Chin; Autumn Whitehurst] [...]
