stART, look listen.. revisited

So the night turned out to be a massive success, which was nice. A small amount of money was even made (after expenses were taken into consideration), which was also nice, and means there will be a bit of a budget for the next one. Although in retrospect, the organasation and logistics of co-ordinating all the various aspects, and making sure everyone actually turned up to do what they were supposed, or if not finding a replacement, was a lot more difficult and stresful than i had anticipated and therefore a short peroid of recouping and reflection is certainly in order before another venture is attempted.

some images from the night;





 some great work by ashbury

The zebra crossing my dad made

Toms flashing furry traffic light with ears

 Sam with his trippy ball things



 Toms deeply immersed in his creation, for a change



Me playing one the most awkward sets i've done for a while

Granny takes a trip editorial



Some nice crocheting... and according to the site...
"Starring Australian model Tori Trigg, the Granny Takes a Trip editorial was shot by photographer Diana Melfi for Lady Gunn magazine. The photo shoot was styled by Penelope Curtis, who chose a very simple outfit: a pair of nude shorts and nothing else. Instead, the audience is drawn to the electric beauty looks that were created by makeup artist Pia Lorena Bedregal. As bright and psychedelic as the blankets themselves, the looks are perfect for a summer night out."
