Quokka- winery

I had fun with the lighting in this one.

I think this may be the first time I’ve shown alcohol in a quokka cover…. then again it could just be grape juice.

Sculpture- painted quokka and yak

I got around to painting these sculptures from my clay class.
(click here for the pre-painted quokka)
(click here for the pre-painted yak)

I didn’t realise the acrylics would go glossy when they dried – saves me having to varnish them.

Quokka- cinema

This week’s cover features the art deco foyer of the Piccadilly Cinema in Perth.

It’s a lot of fun to put quokkas into movie posters…
