Art Shopping, Paid For In Kind

More works by artist Simryn Gill I am considering buying, though it's all a pipe dream with the reality that is my severely wilted bank balance. I wonder if Breenspace gallery will accept Good Intentions as payment? 
These are from My Own Private Angkor series...


Or maybe from her Power Station series. (They come in pairs)





All works belong to the artist, images via from Breenspace

Simryn Gill .... Dalam

I met Simryn Gill at the Singapore Biennale 2006 and I was really emotional after that meeting. Other than being one of my favourite artists, she is probably the one I find most inspirational because of her work ethic, and I feel an affinity with her life and career - born in Singapore, lives in Sydney, returns to Port Dickson . She told me that if she could become an artist, anyone can. I'm going to remember her advice and be one of the 'anyones'. She's represented by Roslyn Oxley9 in Sydney; I'm scheming how ($$, logistics) and when (what colourful excuses can I use to make another trip to Sydney??) to buy a work of hers. I've been thinking about it for too long.... its time to find that excuse.
