Heroin'e's




One day I was walking through the National Art School grounds, trying to think up a next topic for the show at East Sydney Doctors, when I noticed a druggy looking group trespass though our school... They often use our school grounds as a short cut, instead of the back alley of Taylor Square, they always get told off by our security guys... I ended up asking them if I could take their photos ... One girl claimed I "needed a consent form", the only obliging person was this woman, this heroine... Then I decided seeing as though East Sydney Doctors primarily deal with drug addiction recovery I decided this would be the next show 'Heroin'e''.

The hot guy I saw today


This morning on my way to college I saw this very playful major-male-model-potential guy froloking in the sun with his mate... so carefree... I love his cute beach boy look but I'm thinking he could be re-styled as a hippy flower child, or a Brideshead Revisited dandy... I also think he should change his name to JONO WOOD-WOOD, like guys get a serious hard on looking at this boy... boy candy... His name is Jonothan Wood-WARD and has already been licked up by NEW YORK MODELS... Let's hope he does brilliantly well...

V




V is my true artistic love 'pour le moment'. I do hope it lasts a very long time with this guy. Vasili is my mentor, teacher, lover, admirer and best friend. I think we are both as quirky and as mad as each other. I'm constantly widening my knowledge of the new when I hang with him. He challenges me to broaden my thoughts on contemporary art practice, yet is extremely supportive of my particular style which has a 1920s - 40s edge and flair. Best of all he gets me excited, teases me, makes me laugh and we have a lot of fun!

AJ



I was obsessed with AJ for quite some time during my university years. I only ever caught glimpses of him buried in books in the library. It turned into a positive experience as I was able to feed my serious obsession with this guy into making paintings and improving my technique and style.

Lily



Lily is the most intelligent 8 year old I have ever met. She is full of vibrant energy, humour and wit and possesses great artistic promise. Her drawings are wonderful and unique. I would like to put on a solo show of her drawings. Even though she is much younger than me, I feel we have an extremely strong connection and I believe in the future, when she is older, we will be very close friends.

Chris



Chris is an art school mate. He has the most adorable moodyness of character, he is brooding yet acutely soft and sensitive. He is brilliantly sensual with his hands and possesses natural ability with his art making. He is particularly strong working with the sensuous qualities of clay to form striking ceramic pieces. His loose painterly touch is also very freeing and seductive.

Asha



I stumbled across Asha at the notorious cabaret show/art performance night, CABSAV, situated in Darlington, Sydney. She was teetering between madness and seduction. She told me of her previous fashion tumultuous modeling escapades and her transition into art.
