Yo

I got my work back from the framer. Big props to him, he does a great job, i'm super happy. This spread is getting wrapped up and sent off tomorrow for Art Sydney. Stoked that's out of the way!

Hopefully they like biro down there.



I just got a new piece done for a show coming up at Retrospect in Byron Bay. The show is called Day of the Dead and celebrates all things religious, deathly and mysterious.

This is the full piece.



Basically the way I approached it was like this; I wanted to try and cover all three themes - Religion, Death & Mystery. Touching on dedications that aren't necessarily religious, but things people dedicate themselves too with religious dedication.

The overarching message is money and gambling, people are mental for that shit, hence the Clubs, Spades, Diamonds & Hearts symbols, then I just went ahead and filled it all in with relevant imagery; Benjamin Franklin is money, fish for fishing, 'the attacking birds' for mystery, skulls for death, and good old JC for religion directly.

Hopefully it fits into the show alright.









I think i've got time for one more sneaky piece for this show, so I better get back to it.

Take care,
Troy
