The Monthly Art Market

I'm going to have a space at the Monthly Art Market on Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 December, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. It's held in the courtyard of  27 Jerningham Ave which is at the corner of Jerningham and Norfolk St. It will be a new experience, no idea what to expect and lots of preparation to do. Looking forward to it and will post about it afterwards.

Zinnias

Mary Adam, Zinnias, a screenprint on Canson Edition paper

Just finished this screenprint on 100% cotton acid-free Canson Edition paper. It came from some drawings of two small potted plants I got in the garden shop about six weeks ago. The plants have withered now, would they have lasted longer if transplanted to a flower bed? I like the rough unfinished aesthetic which came from painting the separations by hand. This was one of the first drawings:
