HolyGreenCow is pleased to be represented in the brand new Redcliffe Jetty Gallery on the Esplanade at Redcliffe.
It’s a fantastic gallery with some amazing artists!!
A relatively quiet time of late, but a few things in the pipeline…
Found this the other day…

Big cheers to the people at BNE Art for promoting our local talent.
Long time no blog, but I just wanted to post this picture of the first framed image from ‘The Greatest Story Ever Told 2’.
It has made the finals of the Moreton Bay Region Art Awards and I am extremely pleased, It looks great (even if this photo doesn’t show it…)
I literally picked it up from the Framers and dropped it off, so this is my first and last look at it… Til the opening on the 18th of May.
(Cordelia’s 1st Birthday) :p
As part of the lead up to the opening of my THEY CAME exhibition at the Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery, I was interviewed for the Channel Seven news at 6
It’s been a fantastic week of visiting schools and talking about my work as well as working with the wonderful staff of the BRAG, to help make the opening night really cool… and a little different… 🙂
It’s been tough being away from Jean and Cordy all week, but this residency has been quite inspiring and I am so glad to have been invited.
Just got the program and Invite for my exhibition and opening night frivolities 🙂
It looks like a big week in Bundy that week. Can’t wait. The gallery is going all out to make the exhibition a blast!!’
There’s the interactive iPhone tour of my work in the gallery, that should be interesting… I’m yet to record the interviews…
Then there’s the opening night Sci-fi Mash Up to celebrate my THEY CAME series.
oh deary me… :p

Today marks the 2nd Anniversary of my first use of HolyGreenCow as a pseudonym for my artistic endeavours.
It’s been a long, arduous and at times, brilliant year. Art highlights include being a finalist in the Prometheus, my inclusion in the Art bank collection and the completion of my Honours year at QCA.
Not to mention making some amazing new friends and producing work that makes me smile.
I am proud of all that I have achieved in the last 2 years but my biggest accomplishment would have to be the birth of little Cordelia ❤
A big thanks to Jean-Maree, my wife, for putting up with me and being so supportive and Ray Cook, officially my supervisor at QCA, but unofficially, the man without whom I would never have started or continued this journey.
Next year is going to be big, starting with the solo exhibition at Bundaberg Regional Gallery and my series of talks in schools… It’s going to a great experience!!
Cheers
Ian

Finally, after a year, the new series is online and will debut at next weeks Grad show for Honours at QCA. (details in previous post)
This series has been incredible to make and there are so many people I would like to thank, but have already done that in person.
The Jpegs don’t do justice to the 1.5m prints, but if you can’t get to the show, there will be others in the new year!!
Stay posted.
Here it is…

Those who wish to see the new series ‘The Greatest Story Ever Told II’ it will be shown at the Honours Exhibition.
Details attached.
Many thanks to the wonderful people that helped make this year long project happen.
I couldn’t be happier with the work. I am so grateful to everyone that was a part of this.
See you there!!!
It’s been a loooooong year this year. The birth of Cordelia has been the highlight, yet this entire year has been consumed by my Honours project.
It is this that I am about to give birth to this week 🙂
Without giving too much away, here’s a poster that makes up the introduction to my new series.
All will be revealed Friday after I have been officially assessed and can unleash this fantastic series on the world!!
I can’t wait!!!
