sketch

twitter account

i have caved. i am now on twitter, much to my carpaliar delight.

on as mooliki.

purely for information sharing, site updates and finding interesting articles/images/websites online. no detailing of irregular bowel movements or opinions on x-factor auditions.

also, pictures are up in Front Lounge, off Dame St, Dublin, as of yesterday. owing to the late afternoon crowd that had gathered when i was installing the last few paintings, it took me a good hour to recover from the stomach knotting stress and panic of public display. have to work on that...

You always look tired...

a pic i started ages ago and only just got round to finishing...

the day emily went outside

Puppy Fat

i was directed today to PuppyFat, a website belonging to artist/illustrator, Claire Louise. Great looking site and her work's very cool. have a look-see.

getting some more work done for the show in front lounge. this is one i started at the Knockanstockan festival earlier in the month, nearly done so should have it finished in time;

necktastic...

p.s. still listening to Veckatimest.

Exhibition - The Front Lounge, 11th September

I will have some work in a group exhibition in The Front Lounge, Parliament St, Dublin, opening on the Friday 11th of September, 7pm - 9pm.

Unfortunately, I'll not be around for the opening as i'll be in Italy for my brother's wedding.

There'll be work by these artists also;

today

books like reading - update

started some new sketches, one biggish one, which i'm threatening to paint with oils. i quite like the initial sketch though, so i might stick to the trusty old acrylics and not ruin it.

thursday - did a few colour tests, hopefully should look a little like this;

friday 21st - have it started, going well so far,

mandy tsung

i have nothing of my own to post today, though i have been occupying my time finding more things to do with cardboard waste. i mean, what can't you do with it! anyway, i may have mentioned her before, but this image has been on my desktop all week inspiring me to do things betterly;

by the incredible mandy tsung.

have a lovely day.

deviantart

i have an account on deviantart, which i hadn't been to in about a week. i logged on today to find i'd been featured on a daily deviation a few days ago and since then have had over 2000 messages and favourites. from the artist who nominated me, ~conatgion

"~mooliki is one of my very favourite artists, he never ceases to create astoundingly expressive art with some thin lines, and a little and subtle colouring, and this one is one of the most expressive from this amazing gallery. The faces are nearly undrawn, and yet... there's so much going on with the hands but it's not as a substitute for the faces, they, as bodies, the shadows, the texture of the empty background ... the whole picture, just add more and more. Please enjoy number42."

and thanks also to snowmask

the pic itself has over 1000 favourites... thats crazy... over a thousand people looking at it and liking it... crazy... and very joy-making :)
