Artist of the Month

Polly Bastow
@merricreekmusing

Ink and watercolour.

I have been drawing a 35m long image of the Merri Creek (since 2013) that continues to grow. It presents scenes both real and imagined from my daily walk around the Merri Creek. All drawings connect on to the next one (and the one before) which is quite a challenge. I have made a film of it and also printed the first section in a foldable postcard form.I also draw cartoons and observational drawing.I find reversing the power imbalance in everyday life can highlight the weirdness of contemporary living.
