Featured in 'Muse' by Art Historian and Critic Ruth Millington
Art Historian Ruth Millington has been working on her new book ‘Muse’ for years, and it is finally out on bookshelves! I’m so honoured that she’s written a chapter on my artwork and models. ‘Muse tells the true stories of the incredible muses who have inspired art history's masterpieces. From Leonardo da Vinci's studio to the covers of Vogue, art historian, critic and writer Ruth Millington uncovers the remarkable role of muses in some of art history's most well-known and significant works. Delving into the real-life relationships that models have held with the artists who immortalised them, it will expose the influential and active part they have played and deconstruct reductive stereotypes, reframing the muse as a momentous and empowered agent of art history.’ Congratulations Ruth and thank you for writing this important book.

2019 Archibald Prize Finalist
I am so excited to be a finalist in the Archibald Prize with a portrait of my friend. Faustina Agolley is a Ghanaian-Chinese, openly queer actor, broadcaster, television producer, writer and DJ.
The hype of Archibald Prize is hard to explain to those of you outside of Australia. Exhibited annually at one of Australia’s most prestigious museums, the Archibald Prize is often referred to as the exhibition that stops a nation. Nearly everyone has an opinion about which portrait is most deserving of the $100,000 prize!
For the month of May, I’ll be donating 10% of the sales from my original artwork to Black Rainbow, a nonprofit focused on preventing Indigenous LGBQTI+ Suicide. They support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBQTI people who are homeless, leaving domestic violence relationships or the justice system. More info via Blackrainbow.org.au

MIDSUMMA EXHIBITS
You're invited to my next exhibits in Melbourne this January, 2014! Each exhibit's mission statement is unique, but the recurring theme is LGBTQ community. Both are part of the official Midsumma lineup in Melbourne this January/February.
The 'Inquisitarium' exhibit at Art @1 Spring Street will focus on fluid themes including strife for equality, finding a sense of belonging and truly knowing oneself. At least that's how I interpret the mission statement. I'll be in attendance at the opening reception from 5p-7p, January 14th.
Click here for Inquisitarium exhibit details
'The Comfort Zone' is a more open-ended collection of works by GLBTIQ artists, with an interactive ‘Wall of Sound' - a message board installation comprised of photos and cards forming a wall of positive messages about 'Equality for All'. This show is a Premier Group Exhibition in the Foyer & Angela Robarts – Bird Galleries of Gasworks Arts Park. I'm looking forward to attending the opening reception on January 16th, 6p-8p.
INTERVIEW PUBLISHED: THE HAPPY HEALTHY LESBIAN
I recently had an interview with The Happy Healthy Lesbian, a site that believes all women - queer or not - deserve the opportunity to be happy an healthy despite the fact that statistically, queer women don't fare as well as straight women when it comes to health and happiness. In our interview I discuss how I remain a happy and healthy lesbian, share my lesbian role models and more! Check it out at The Happy Healthy Lesbian.

R&D Celebrates its one year anniversary with a special group exhibition. Contemporary theory proves that time is an elastic concept based on human perception. Humans perceive the passage of time at alternate rates during periods of high stimulation and near death experience. Time is also warped by based on one's proximity from the earth.
