Some finely crafted drawings by the very talented Harry Bush. I am often concerned about the amount of time spent on a single drawing, so I was relieved to read that Harry Bush sometimes laboured for weeks or even months over his drawings.His delicate line and shading techniques are respected and his drawings display a enviable understanding of male anatomy. And always his images expose his wicked sense of humor.

New drawing: Pencil on A4 paper. Always looking for the ideal male face. Strong features, soft but masculine. The process of getting the shading smooth feels a bit like forcing individual graphite molecules to bond with the paper in just the right amounts. Comments always welcome...
Just some pictures driving down to Durban...

It is pretty hard not to get swept up in the Olympic spectacle when you see sharing like this. Germany's gymnast Fabian Hambuechen hugs U.S. gymnast Jonathan Horton at the Beijing 2008 Olympics. Horton won the silver, Hambuechen the bronze medal.

We saw Cha Cha Heels on Saturday night - most enjoyable! This slick Drag Extravaganza by producer Bryan Bester, brings together a cast of eight of the South Africa’s leading Drag Artists, headed up by the formidable Ines Beau Rivage and features four handsome male dancers. Awesome costumes by Kurt van der Muller and choreography by Robin McBroom make it a night to remember.
Rihanna, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera and Nelly Furtado join disco favourites Shirley Bassey, Donna Summer, Tina Turner, Eartha Kitt, Cher and Gloria Gaynor. Also, a few numbers from old James Bond movies, Chicago and some Brazilian rhythms featuring Carmen Miranda.
Cha Cha Heels runs until the 10th August 2008 at the Tesson Theatre, Johannesburg Civic Theatre. Don't miss it!
Can't seem to find any information about this artist - Torburan. I really enjoy the strong graphic and decorative qualities as well as the way the figures have been abstracted.
Sure you have seen this before... It is Captain Gray Edwards from the movie Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. It is not often that a digital character gets the full pin-up treatment.
