New Online Store

After two days of selecting and photographing artwork from my art drawers I’ve now compiled a collection of art available for purchase.

But, because I want more control over the appearance of my art store I’ve moved away from Etsy and set up a brand new shop at Square. Yes, it meant hours of learning new features, setting up new profiles and pulling my hair out, BUT, the finished result better fits my main website and I’m super pleased with the overall appearance. Happy days!

The art is a combination of personal projects, disused art from my books (more to come soon), and art from magazine commissions. Some of the art pieces I’d never intended to sell, before I realised that being stored away and never being displayed is just a little sad. I’d much rather they were on someone’s wall than in my art drawer.

If you’re keen to adopt a new artwork then head over to Gabriel Evans – Online Store. Happy browsing.

Original Art Sale

Tomorrow, 5th April 2022 at 5pm Perth/AWST time (GMT+8) I’ll be releasing several original watercolour illustrations on my Etsy page.

I only release a few originals during the year and I’m excited to share these new artworks made over the last couple of months. Each one has its only story for why it was created; a possible picture book idea, experimenting with a new technique, trial for an illustration layout or just plain fun.

Book Birthday

It’s the book birthday of Ollie and Augustus.

This is the first picture book I’ve both written and illustrated. Thanks to my fantastic editor, Nancy, and the creative Walker Books Australia team that got behind me in making this book.

And a special shout out to the two dogs that inspired Augustus – Lacie and Bry.

Ollie and Augustus is already popping up in bookshops around Australia and online including Dymocks.

Two book launches will kick off in NSW at Berkelouw Books Leichhardt and The Children’s Bookshop, Beecroft,  followed by at least two in WA at Paper Bird Children’s Books and my hometown. More details on my events page. Join me in celebrating!
