What an honour and privilege to paint this wonderful artist and man...at 91 he is still an inspiring mentor to so many artists.
My painting left today by courier for Sydney, and even though it's a long shot that it will be selected out of almost 1000 paintings the journey to paint Bob has been so rewarding. UPDATE: No luck in being selected and hung for The Archibald Prize. 😔

'Angel In The Room' (Delta), oil
I'm always up for a challenge and this portrait was no exception with Singer/Songwriter Delta Goodrem. Timing, logistics, dealing with agents, and even changing from my original concept were all in a days work...actually months of work! This painting now hangs at The Hills Grammar School, Kenthurst, NSW, which Delta attended. 2010 Best Work on Paper Prize ($5000) The A.M.E. Art Prize
My portrait of Amy is very special to me which has won three major prizes and hung in several exhibitions, including the Victorian Salon de Refusé. It now remains in my personal collection. 2010 Entry, ‘The Milliner’s Magic’ (Neil Grigg)
Meet Neil Grigg, Milliner to the stars in Paddington, Sydney. Not only is he a great Milliner having made hats for Princess Mary of Denmark, Gay Waterhouse and a host of other celebrities, he also has a dedicated following of students to make hats with flair and have loads of fun in the process. |
