← Back to How To Win The Archibald Portrait Prize

June 14, 2016

I have a secret: I've carried my Archibald Prize entry in a backpack for two months.

I have a secret to share. For the past two months I've carried around a giant 142cm X 142cm piece of paper in a backpack and scribbled as I've felt so moved to. This is my Archibald Prize entry. 

Why? Paper is a rarely used for the Archibald but it's also accessible (can you carry a giant canvas without passersby crossing the street believing you to be crazy, or secretly embellishing it in a cafe?).

This might make mine the most travelled artwork in the Archibald this year.

You see, my work is a giant doodle to let people into my mind - celebrating, not hiding the process like an airbrushed magazine.

I of course I’ll need a frame to add a lustre to my work. To that I’ll turn to frameshop.com.au (that part is even more radical!).

P.S - I'd love to send you my updates, just go here.

You can see my Archibald Journey here and my other creations and art here.
