Heya People

Just came back from a kick ass art event held at the National Art School, East Sydney tonight Sponsored by Absolut Vodka - Absolutely!

There was glitz and glam and a guy we all know as Nnnnsic but he was in disguise and quite hard to spot.

This high calibre exhibition featured works by renowned artists Ken Done and John Wolseley to name a few and among them a former picture of the week by our very own Nnnnsic - Yay!!!

Bud, I am proud of you!, your a very humble person as you normally keep your achievments away from your friends. Hopefully this is a startoff point to greater opportunities!

The image that made most go what the?...how the?...why the?

This gig is goin' off!

Yes, we know you are a freak.

Nicely.

Looks pretty cool in that frame dude.
Nice work there Leigh.

Well done Leigh, the disguise nearly fooled me until I remembered that real 'Bunnies' dont usually have beards! :lol:

Bob.

Congrats Leigh! Heh should've engraved POTW into the frame

Ewww bearded playboy bunny..... :twisted:

Ken Done? A reknown artist? :shock:

Matt,

Sad, isn't it?

Posted: **Fri Oct 21, 2005 12:33 am**

Leigh - you can never be a real artist until you cut one of the bunnies ears off

Congrats mate

Here's another disturbing thought:
Leigh the Bearded Playboy Bunny Exhibitionist Freak ....don't ask how or why I even came up with that.

WHAT ... not the "blurry" picture again !!!!

Posted: **Fri Oct 21, 2005 12:54 am**

The same!

Every graduate from the past year at Uni was sent a 4x6" postcard canvas and we were asked to do something for Drawcard... so it's no big deal.

And the bunny ears... that's for a play... and because I'm cute and fluffy.

The idea behind it is we all donate work that will all sell for 200 each, but you're not supposed to know who did what, so no one signs.

Of course, that's the theory.

A lot of people sign and a lot of people just tell whose their's is.

And the other bunch have works identical to every other thing they've ever done.

Unbelievably, Ken Done's work is surprisngly crappier than his other really crap stuff.

The Mambo artist, I think it's Bombassa, has a good one... but most of the artists are bloody obvious, especially if you know their work.

Awesome. It is great that your work is displayed to the general public. Hopefully someone liked your work too. It works really well with the frame like that, almost looking like a window into somebody's life.

As for Ken Done, he must be an artist as i have seen his fingerpainting work on t-shirts in tourist shops.

Well done Leigh, good on you

And incidentally, that is the best picture of you that has been posted to date :wink:

thought 1. stubbsy has a new mug shot to record from here unless leigh has a large roll of cash to prevent it :twisted:

thought 2. time to start a whole new round of discussion on that blurry 'shot blind' style shot... mmm... maybe we could start a whole new artistic movement??? :roll:

Leigh,
Your new mug shot is great! bunny with beard! Very special!!!

Stubbsy,
Pls. update Leigh's mug shot into your album.

Hey!!!!!!!!! Knock off the critism of one of Australia's renowned artistes

My mother has a high regard for Ken Done, his tea towels are some of the most colourful she has and a Sunday dinner wouldn't be the same without Ken Done joining in the clean-up. :lol:

More important, congrats Leigh. A startling image

the frame enhances the look of isolation. I hope it was snapped up by a real art lover and not a tea towel collector or poseur, it deserves better than that.

Cheers,
Terry

Congrats Leigh, I am sure you made the biggest impact in your 'opening night' ears.

WHile I didn't like the original pic, I really like the treatment on this and think the story about how you did it is worth putting in here too since I think it's a very clever concept. WHile a few of us know the story I think you should share it with the rest....

Hey Leigh, Good onya mate, getting it out there and on display and i know i am a critic at some things that they call art, f9or the life of me i cant work it out sometimes, but yeh well done mate. keep it up.

What story is that?

Why I'm wearing the bunny ears?

Sorry Leigh

My comments about "the original pic" referred to the lady on the bus, not the man with the bunny ears.

SO what Wendell says!

Hey Leigh!
You look like you've got a touch of mixo mate! :lol:
