Optical Owls

elphicks — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 12:27:10 +0000

‘Optical Owls’ is a new drawing by Sharon Elphick for an exhibition to be held at the Mill Co. Project in London. ‘Collectionistas’ is an exhibition curated by Kavel Rafferty and will showcase artworks by several artists who are inspired by collecting. I have a fascination with birds, in particular owls and I have amounted quite a number of ceramics based on our fine feathered friends. This drawing shows some of my favourites. The drawing will be recreated as a Risograph in an edition of 30 and will be on display from November 26th. I’ll post more information soon.

Christmas Wednesdays 2011

It’s that time of year again and with our first event starting just seven weeks away I thought I would introduce you to this years poster. We’ve been working with our local school Columbia Primary and the winning artwork, featured in in this years poster was designed by Oleanna Pereira, age 7. I love her depiction of our famous street with the message ‘don’t forget to stroke the cat’, a reference to Gilbert the big white, most photographed cat on Columbia Road. For more information on Columbia Road please visit www.columbiaroad.info

Discovery in South London

I discovered the work of Penelope Kenny on my way to Intaglio Printmaker in South London this morning. In a small gallery on Union Street, a small selection of graduates from the University of Brighton were showing their work. Penelope’s was my favourite, and I’m hoping she might want to come on board the ship of Elphick’s. You can view her tumblr here.

Jen Franklin ‘Falconry’

Jen Franklin ‘Squirrel with Fluttering Sparrow’

Jen Franklin ‘Squirrel with Ornamental Bird’

I love these new prints by Jen Franklin, I think they are stunning. I’m particularly fond of ‘Falconry, so much so that I am going to have to treat myself. She has increased the edition size and reduced the price to make them more affordable and accessible. They will be available in the shop real soon, you can also purchase them online here.
