Figaro Pho






Figaro Pho is a quirky little dude who suffers from an alphabet of phobias. Spiders, telephones, beards,dust and even poo. In this episode, 'Fear of being stared at' I was lucky enough to help out with a series of portraits that hung in the hallway of his house. The characters were designed by Luke Jurevicius who also directed the series, and the final images have been painted digitally. The episodes are being aired on ABC and you can check out Figaro at his site.

Brilliant news! 'I only like Toast' has arrived and I had a first look the other day. To celebrate, here's another pic. It's a bit disappointing that I haven't been able to post anything for a bit - I've been pretty busy lately and have been working on some uber-cool projects. Hopefully I'll be able to post some stuff soon, depending on if I get permission. I'm also planning some extreme painting sessions in the very near future too- So I'm looking forward to sharing those as soon as they are done. I had a great weekend in Sydney recently and got to visit the art gallery there for the first time, so needless to say, the creative tank is now full and ready to burst.
Actual love - Shane.

New Stuff.
Well, here's another attempt at some more portrait stuff. I had a cruddy canvas lying around and thought I'd give it a go. The idea was to paint quickly and to build up confidence with realism. I couldn't really think of something to paint so I thought I'd do the old school thing and attempt a self-portrait.


Here's a quick snap of 'Where robots come from' just before it is finished.

EXHIBITION TIME!





Well it's almost Nov 20th, which means that it's almost exhibition time. I've been working on these paintings for the last month or so and they've been a lot of fun - particularly 'Where robots come from'... It's fun to think that robots come carried by stupid looking button eyed balloons and float down to earth after a long journey by air...ha ha.. where they come from we'll never know.! These will all be showing in the exhibition as well as a few others from this blog and a couple of new ones.
I'd like to thank Dave Solm very much for photographing these ones for me as well.. He's a legend and he's done a brilliant job.

Kids book and painting fun for September

Here's the latest painting all luverly and finished last night.. (again, apologies for the image, but I really need to get a decent camera) This one has taken ages, mostly because it's enormous, but I have been busy with other exciting stuff. I am Illustrating a children's book at the moment about a little girl who only likes to eat toast, written by Greg Knagge and Jo Fiedler.
So heres a little taste.. I think I'll hold off on sharing the rest till it's done, but it's a really fun project to be working on especially because it's written for a clever and enjoyable read.!
