14.01.2022 Flashback to ‘made to measure show’ at hawthorn town hall gallery from sept last year. A colab dress was made with @riokotega too. Missing everyone. Day 8 of mandatory isolation. I did put the bins out once which was exhilarating! #patterndesign #dressdesigner #madetomeasure #melbourneart #melbourneartist #eddiebotha
14.01.2022 Mural is finished. Really nice process of talking to so many locals as I drew them onto the wall. Was so nice getting to know the people at Grub! What an awesome bunch and such good food, coffee and ambiance. Thanks Tim and Mark. #grubfitzroy #fitzroyart #melbourneart #inkdrawing #streetart #melbournestreetart #interactivedrawing #artondoors @grubfitzroy
12.01.2022 Hey guys, I’m doing a new series of drawings sponsored by city of Melbourne called Resolation. I am drawing people being connected and celebrating taking out this stupid virus. It deals with our newfound fear of interaction and isolation. I want us to all be connected again, even if it’s just on an artwork for now. No matter where you are, if you want to be part of it, please send me a photo of yourself, full length pose, preferably not just a straight frontal shot but any angle is ok, just not from behind. I will send you an image of you drawn once it’s done and credit you at back of artwork too. Welcome to share this with friends. Will draw about 300-400 people. @cityofmelbourne @whatsonmelb #melbmoment @ Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
12.01.2022 Doing a series of drawings drawn with my left hand. Been more than 20 years since I drew with my left hand. It’s an amazing feeling of uncertainty and freedom at the same time. On show at fox galleries in March. Indian ink on Hanji paper More details soon #foxgalleries #hanjipaper

11.01.2022 Flashback to a time when we could get as close to people as we wanted, in 2017 at National Gallery of China, Beijing. Missing those days. This work is now part of the National art collection in China. Working on a similar work at the moment here in Melbourne #nationalgallerychina #interactiveart #beijingbienalle #melbourneartist #artcollector #newart #isolationcreation #chineseart

08.01.2022 Saturday morning doodles with virus on my mind #doodles #covid19 #melbourneartist #inkdrawing #smallart #birthdaypresent #isolationart
08.01.2022 Had a good left hand dooldle with this one. Called ‘Rising above the clowns’ Breaking new ground, and feeling excited. A swop with fellow artist @joi.murugavell #clowns #inkdrawing #melbourneart #funart #doodle
08.01.2022 Latest work for Blake prize entry, about how we are divided into groups, separated yet united by our colors and religions or absence there off. One thing is sure, you won’t in reality have groupings of people like this for a while. It’s a pitty that in a time when we need to be unified and friendly, we need to distance and isolate, but for now everyone has a responsibility to nip this stupid virus out of existence. Be strong everyone. Let’s keep making art to keep us going! #peoplegroups #blakeprize2020 #religiousart #timetochill #melbourneart #eddiebotha

07.01.2022 We are militant towards nature, God knows why. It was never what God intended that’s for sure. Love nature, and it will love us back. Karma is a necessary bitch. Enjoying this commission piece just finished. #naturevshumans #inkdrawing #isolationart #melbourneart #australianart #millitant #mixedmediaart #artcollectors
