Our collage group Melbourne Collage Meets have a new fun project. Here are a few of our artworks for this subject. Hopefully we will make these into a stop motion film in the future. Should anyone wish to have a go creating a man on a red chair please do so and send it to me. 😀❤️
So many things in August including an exhibition at the Alphington Community Centre for Melbourne Collage Meets and Alphington Open Studios as well as lots of local talented Artists.
Here are a few works by Virginia, Debbie (pictured) and myself.
Alphington Community Centre Winter Salon Show is coming up on the 13th to the 16th August.
Alphington Winter Art SalonWe would love to see you at the opening on Friday evening or over the weekend.
MCM will be exhibiting fun, quirky collages, mixed media works, framed and unframed works. Hope to see you there.
Melbourne Collage Meets have a new topic for collage this month. Patterns is it.
Here is a little piece that I have played with while having a think about something more serious (that may never come).
We are currently planning to exhibit at the Salon exhibition at the Alphington Community Centre. It was a fabulous event that we participated in last year. We showed framed artwork, work mounted on matboard and cards. Many of our group have exhibited before but it was so wonderful to see others that showed for the very first time. I will let you know when this happens so that you can come along and see what we are making and hopefully you will fall in love with something and buy it.

These are a few of the drawings from our Wednesday evening Observational Drawing class. Much of this work is still in progress – sometimes tone is being considered more than line and at other times the opposite. The more resolved drawings were done over approximately 20 minutes. I think they are wonderful. Although the drawing is observational we did add a small piece of found paper collage and then added some invented stripes into one of the drawings.
This exhibition is a sampling of work by all the participants in the upcoming Alphington Open Studios exhibition. It is quite a big space at the gallery so lots of work on show including ceramic, painting, mixed media, assemblage, sculpture, drawing and more. I will be looking after the gallery on Sunday 11.30am until 1.30pm 17th May 2026.
I would love it if you could pop in and say hi. I have not been in this group exhibition for a number of years and would like to reconnect with past visitors and meet some new ones. Look forward to seeing you.
Our third set of drawing classes will begin on Wednesday 6th of May from 6-8pm. The classes will be observational drawing of a still-life set up with tips on drawing and using drawing materials, using tone, learning how to get the right proportions (that’s only if you want to) and incorporating other mediums within the drawing.
I have a couple of places still available if this is something you might be interested in. Classes take place in Alphington.
Price per class is $20 with just one materials fee of $20. All materials are provided .
