I’m so excited to bring you the affordable chanc I’m so excited to bring you the affordable chance to adorn your walls with beautiful, positive moments of joy. Here’s why: 1- My originals are captured along with EVERY BIT of the gorgeous colour and textures by a museum archivist. Each reproduction is (almost) impossible to differentiate from the original artwork. 2- Standard paper sizes mean simple, fast framing, either in a readily available store-bought frame, or a bespoke version from professional framers. 3- Archival, museum quality reproductions mean a lifetime guarantee. Seriously. 4- Choose the work you love, and curate your own vibrant story!
@costasworld @reblev_radio SO MANY COSTAS!!! All @costasworld @reblev_radio SO MANY COSTAS!!! All suggestions gratefully received on how to resolve the dilemma of an over abundance of this much loved face. I have thoughts… what are yours? Annnd…. Would you like to see me do it? #degillettcox #thebradley #costageorgiadis #coloursofexuberance #portraitpainting #livepainting
Many years ago, I was a sculptor, and I worked in Many years ago, I was a sculptor, and I worked in clay making fat-bottomed girls, among other things. This is Veronica, made for my dear old Dad and named after a certain wee chubby bubby in our life. Before he passed, she hung in his garden, and now she hangs in mine. If you look closely at her mouth you can see that a mud wasp has set up residence inside her head, and also I often need to disrobe her out of the spider web cloak she develops. Nature! Time moves on, and these days I'm a painter. I still occasionally sculpt, but just for myself. Making art really does make my rockin' world go round. I still do love a fat-bottomed girl though 🙂 Happy Heavenly Father's Day, JKB. #degillettcox #queen #artist #nature #wasp #spider #dad #missyou #stillhateboats

I’m super picky about what I listen to while I’m painting. @kariseedenmusic is often my go to, especially for this painting which was inspired by the gorgeous light Karise herself captured at her home, and which I saw on her Facebook page, where she gives such beautiful insights into what it is to be a creative. Sorry about leaving out your horse, @kariseedenmusic ! I know you love ‘em, but horseflesh is beyond my capacity to paint with all these textures and colours. I sincerely hope I’ve captured some of the love and awe your music fills my heart with. #degillettcox #coloursofexuberance #australianlandscape #glowcolour #kariseeden #myhero #thevoice #gumtrees #australianbush

I am super proud to be included in the thousands o I am super proud to be included in the thousands of artists from 162 countries that have work going to the MOON! My episode of Colour In Your Life is going (Series 05, Ep 09, 2013), as is a self portrait "Discovering the Fauve within". We are all part of the Lunar Codex project, which has been called the most expansive, international, and diverse collection of contemporary culture launched into space. It's fitting that, in parallel with Artemis - a program attempting to land the first woman on the Moon - the Lunar Codex is the first project to launch the works of women artists to the lunar surface. Samuel Peralta, the mind behind this, say "Our hope is that future travelers who find these time capsules will discover some of the richness of our world today... It speaks to the idea that, despite wars and pandemics and climate upheaval, humankind found time to dream, time to create art.” #degillettcox #lunarcodex #lunarcodexcollection #colourinyourlife #colourinyourlifeartist #elonmusk #selfportrait #coloursofexuberance #graemestevenson #moon #timecapsule ​
