I recently did two new paintings for Artboy gallery's 'Ladies Night' exhibition. The theme was strictly 'draw no dudes' and featured all the women of pop culture...

For some reason I always go for the more obscure ideas and so my first piece was Florence Nightingale, who was a pioneer of modern nursing and has been featured and referenced in many books and films. Here is a few shots of the progress and final piece...

 

 

 

As the first piece was a bit left field I wanted to do something more 'pop culture' for the second piece. I chose Morticia from the Addams Family because Chas Addams is one of my favourite illustrators and I am enamoured with his work.

This is my version of Morticia Addams. The piece is titled 'Milk, Sugar...Cyanide'

 

 

The exhibition opens tonight at Artboy Gallery, 99 Greville St, Prahran, Vic
