Dear Gabstars.<br />
<br />
It came to my attention today via a friend that my work has been used without my permission at an international website called <a href="http://www.drgrab.com.au/collections/Cushion-Cases/" target="_blank">Dr Grab</a>.<br />
<br />
While by the time you read this, the items in question should have been removed from the website. I am sharing the images for all to see so you can also be aware and not support businesses who rip off the little guy. The top two images are taken from Dr Grab's website. The bottom two are my flickr account screenshots which is where I believe they lifted the images from.<br />
<br />
As an artist and small business this sort of stuff is not cool. Not cool at all.Gabby Malpashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07843622556190387758noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5079660744080048993.post-21002451208261109342016-03-21T16:46:00.002+11:002016-03-21T16:46:26.287+11:00Gabby Malpas: original painting giveaway<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I recently teamed up with a fellow kiwi and chum: Kere Baker of LoobyLou candles fame.<br /><br />There are 9 scents - for longevity and you can<a href="http://loobyloucandles.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank"> shop the range here.</a><br />
<br />
It's been fabulously received so far and Kere's gift for design makes me so proud to be working with her.<br />

A small selection of images in my new show at St Vincents Hospital: 'In my mothers' gardens and other stories'. <a href="http://gabbymalpas.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/St-Vinnies-catalogue-November2015_final.pdf" target="_blank">There is a catalogue here. </a><br /><br />The show runs until sometime in January 2016.

Dear Frooters<br />
<br />
I've neglected the blog lately but it's not for lack of projects.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://platformstore.com.au/" target="_blank">Platform72</a> are now starting to promote my forthcoming show: 'leaping rabbit, hidden butterfly' which is due to open on 20th August.<br />
<br />
Some gorgeous styling shots were taken over the weekend of the large two canvases. <br />

A selection of Peranakan and Chinese ceramics for forthcoming shows and projects.

I didn't have a Christmas or NY break, instead I've been working on a lot of new projects and images for forthcoming shows. I have three booked in for 2015 so have to work while the mojo is hot.Gabby Malpashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07843622556190387758noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5079660744080048993.post-51775334037824355152015-01-27T18:30:00.000+11:002015-01-27T18:50:00.829+11:00Tigermom - work in progress<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Soon after New Year, I took a trip to<a href="http://www.hillandalegardenandnursery.com/" target="_blank"> Hillandale Gardens & Nursery</a> in Yetholme to spend the day with my chum Sarah, talk about the new seed varieties I need to paint for this year's crop and enjoy the countryside.<br />
<br />
Of course I came back with armfuls of flowers: Hydrangeas and tigerlilies so I set to, and started working on this image: 'Tiger mom', a gentle parody/protest at that term for overtly pushy and ambitious Asian mothers. I have put the tiger lillies into some very colourful Peranakan pots - these beautiful porcelian pieces were used at weddings amongst the Straits Chinese community in Singapore and Malaysia and I've been a huge fan ever since I came across some in a museum in Penang around 1988.Gabby Malpashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07843622556190387758noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5079660744080048993.post-58172414352206007992014-11-16T10:23:00.000+11:002014-11-16T10:23:15.123+11:00Gabby Malpas for Armuseli, Spain<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am delighted to be collaborating with the team at Armuseli, Spain on their capsule collection for Spring/Summer 2015.<br /><br />
I spied first photos of a garment featuring my 'Hope' butterfly a week or so ago and below are links to various media pieces after the launch.<br /><br />I particularly love the youtube video of the team and guests having high tea - that is exactly the sort of scenario I set up for my own gallery openings!<br />

This is the final print run of cushions for the year and these, like everything else I produce, are limited edition.<br />
Each cushion cover is 100% cotton, machine washable and numbered as a limited edition print. I'd recommend keeping them out of very direct sunlight and outdoors.<br />
The pattern depictions shown here are the front and back of each cushion.<br />

It was a wonderful night and I was overwhelmed with the support of friends, family and complete strangers who came.<br />Adoption agencies took an interest and there were representatives from AdoptChange, the Benevolent Society and others. Helen McCabe, who is on the board of directors at AdoptChange opened the show and was so generous with her time.<br /><br />Platform72 were just wonderful as always<br /><br />Gabby Malpashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07843622556190387758noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5079660744080048993.post-66656234304326843492014-10-02T16:35:00.000+10:002014-10-02T16:35:22.346+10:00Gabby Malpas: 'where are you from?' show details<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

If you're in the Gosford area this weekend, please come and visit me at the Plant lovers fair at Kariong Mountains High School, Festival Drive, Kariong - we will be there rain or shine from 9am - 4pm every day.<br />
<br />
There are a fabulous selection of subtropical plants at this fair - I'm looking to stock up on bromeliads and orchids.<br />

Well unfortunately, Sydney did not play nice for the 4 days of the Australian garden show. The persistent rain meant a very wet weekend and much of the show was very muddy underfoot. However, the gardeners were not deterred and when the sun finally came out on Sunday afternoon, the show gardens were beautiful to behold. Here are some random shots of the weekend.<br />
<br />
Graham Ross came by for a special introduction of Sarah and her work at <a href="http://www.hillandalegardenandnursery.com/" target="_blank">Hillandale Gardens & Nursery</a> to his guest audience.<br />

I've been working with Platform72 for a year. They have been fabulous at promoting my artwork and giftware.<br />
<br />
They are launching a new exhibition and art space in St Leonards, on the north shore of Sydney.<br />
<br />
