Exhibition Illustration

The MCAST art and design exhibition is almost here and I've just finished and printed my illustration that will feature on the front of my allocated door.

Origami Madness

We are currently in the process of setting up the ceramics room at our institute for our end of year exhibition. We chose to go for an origami garden theme calling the area "The Design Aviary".

While googling potential tutorials I came across this funny pieces and works of art!

My new logo: Pictorial logo, black and white logo and combination logo

New obsession!! - indian ink and frames!

I recently came across a couple of frames in a charity shop which I decided to illustrate. The aim was to integrate the framed image with the frame.

I also discovered the joys of indian ink! It dries so quickly and has such a smooth texture! It was love at first brush!  So I decided to incorporate the two together!

Here is some of the stuff I did today!

Devotion - indian ink

Secrets - mixed media collage and indian ink

A frame based on my new logo - mixed media collage and indian ink

New piece

I've been trying to finish this one for ages (so long in fact, that the rose bushes have since been chopped off!!!). However, I have been faced with a sudden, unexplained surge in productivity, possibly due to the reasons mentioned in the previous post!

Anyway here it is: Red.

Red by AlexandraAquilina

The anger hath begone.

Yes, in a sudden sprout of dare-I-call-it, new-found maturity and peace of mind. All the anger hath begone she said! And its starting to show in my songwriting. No more shouts, screams, hate, disgust and sarcasm but inner calm, musicality and wit. I'm growing up, (at least I hope so).

All this was triggered by a huge disappointment given to me by what I deemed to be close friends. The wave of awareness that its useless being anger or disappointed or feeling regret for not being able to save those you care for or at least help them save themselves lead me to be more zen and matter of fact about things. "You want to fuck up your life? Ok, see you around."

And on that note, my all time favourite local band from what I consider a flawless album: Beangrowers.

And tonight guitars by Lucas and vocals by Jorje from Gozo in the form of Monobrow MP at Coach and Horses. Looking forward!!



You are You are - Beangrowers
