Nesting & Dying -ghostpatrol & miso.

Yeah, I know what I said. But you know me better than that, dont you.


Last night I went along to opening night of the new Ghostpatrol & Miso exhibition @ Metro 5 Gallery in Armadale. It was the best one yet!! I was also lucky enough to pick up a copy of their new book of art. It is so special and I will treasure it for a long time.

The atmosphere was amazing, and with so many new pieces to look at I spent a long time just hovering around. If you didnt get to go, there is still hope!! Check out the brochure below for details.

Amount of fun = 12x12


I was lucky enough to go along to another opening night of a new exhibition at No Vacancy Gallery in QV. This one naturally also featured my fave artist of the moment, ghostpatrol.

The unexpectedly extra awesome thing about this exhibition was that the work he featured was my fave stuff - the pencil art!!! Such as this one featured below....

Up until now the only place I'd seen these was on the internet, so this was my first chance to get up close and really examine them. When you do, you realise just how much work has gone into it. And yes, they ARE real pencils!!

Such incredible art!! I also noticed one of the dolls ghostpatrol also makes on the table.
I was too scared to ask how much it was or if it was for sale because I didnt want to officially crush my
dreams of owning one.

It was just way too cute.

No vacancy gallery launch

Want to go along to the opening night and launch party for the new No Vacancy gallery at QV? There will be artwork on show by 10 of melbournes coolest artists. And lots of arty people will turn up. There will be free alcohol! Oh, you dont care about the free alcohol? Ok. Well what if I told you that ghostpatrol and miso will both be exhibiting there. Yeah, thought you might like that.

And so it was that last night I ventured out into the land of Visual Art. To have the chance to see ghostpatrol's work up close and in the flesh was quite a treat. Then I spent a lot of the night scoping out just who I thought the artist was. I narrowed it down to a funky looking guy with longish hair and a bit of a beard and another funky looking guy with mid length hair and less of a beard.
Photos? M'ok then.

ghostpatrol


I'm in love.

I was flicking through the paper the other day at work and came across an advertisement for an upcoming art exhibition. The photo of a piece of artwork really hit me. It's the one that I have stolen for my new background. I did a bit of research about the artist, ghostpatrol, and was hugely impressed by not only the incredible sketches, but also the graffiti art that he does. It has been a while since art has impressed me this much. Kudos to ghostpatrol. I may have to check out the following event.
