Not sure if I ever mentioned on here the most beloved treasure of my life..so now’s the time. I own a ring, and this ring was created by Polly VanDerGlas. And said ring holds two of my teeth in it, they were adult teeth that got removed for orthodontics, and I had this amazing ring made for my 18th birthday. WOW COOL STORY NINA
But the story continues!! I recently went back home to visit my folks and to collect my baby teeth. My Mum, like some, kept them all. Anyway, amongst this collection lived the roots to those adult teeth I was talking about. You see, Polly had to cut the amaaaaazing roots away from the rest of the tooth when she made the ring, and she kindly gave them back to me.
AAAND I’m meeting up with Polly on Thursday (tomorrow) to discuss how she will be able to make these roots into stud earings!
FUCK. YES. IM. SO. EXCITED. IVE. BEEN. WAITING. TILL. I. COULD. AFFORD. THIS. AND. NOW. ITS. HAPPENING. YESSSSSS. Please have a gander at Polly’s stuff shes such a great lass and her work is phenom! http://vanderglas.com.au/
So I have two friends, and one is named Max and one is named Shane, and they are in a band together, and their band is named ‘The Big Empty’, and they came over the other day to discuss album artwork and they wound up just picking an existing piece, and I turned it into a cover design. And heeeerrreeeee it is
And dis is what their music sounds like: myspace.com/bigemptymusic
My exhibition is awl over and here are some more photos of the things I put in it.
Seeww, this was the turn out for the exhibition opening! Sold a few things, big ol’ thanks to anyone that decided to show up! And an even bigger thanks to those who spent their moneys on some of my art!
Love all yas gutz!
Also, if you haven’t already, go check it out in the flleeeeeesssshhhh! Because it’ll make me happy
So, as it turns out, the exhibition isn’t as far away as I thought. It goes up next Wednesday! The whole theme sort of revolves around people and how we’re pretty simple and similar..in our own weird and unique ways. The title is ‘We’re Only Mammal’. I’m pretty excited. Hopefully I’ll be able to display some of the works in the actual shop…I can’t really think much right now so I’m not going to say anything else about it except to go and buy stuff!
Its a little bit hard to read, the address is level two of Royal Arcade, off Little Collins street, and it begins on the 2nd of June!
So here’s the scoop guys, I moved to Melbourne around three months ago, and since then I got a pretty sweet job at a bar in Fitzroy but it’s kinda been taking over my life.
I’ve managed to gather my shit enough to hold an exhibition in the city at a clothes shop/ gallery space called ‘Somehwere’ on the 2nd of June, yayayayay! Only downside is that I cant have an opening. I know. Devastating, some nonsense about not being able to move out all the clothes and shelves, which is totally ok and understandable. Just unfortunate. Anyway, thats just a cute little photo to prove that I’ve been doing a leeeeetle bit of work. I’ll talk more about the exhibition when its a bit closer

Take two minutes out of your life to read this because it’s about meeeeeee.
My mum actually frequently googles my name and found this before I did
I cant decide whether to keep this black and white, or to add some colour, dilemmas dilemmas dilemmas. This is a larger scale picture I made based on a rough sketch I did a while ago.
NO INTERNETZ ATM OKKKKAY
So I have a few new ideas, this next lot stem from tv, hopefully I’ll continue with this idea/finish it.
Have started using the computer to draw pictures, finally catching up with technology, thanks to my pal Evert (www.everythingisonething.com)
There have actually been hardly any birthdays, the fact that the only work Ive been posting are birthday drawings proves how little I’ve been doing
Happy Birthday Adrian, I began drawing you a bizarre hybrid animal because I couldnt decide on an animal for you, it looked shit so I settled for my original idea.
