#throwbackthursday #tbt here's a throwback to this art print 'geo' from 2014. It was part of my first SALA festival exhibition and was the first 'leap' into art after working in design for a long time. I am still a designer and spend much of my working hours on client work, I do my art at nights, early mornings and weekends whenever I can carve out the time. So far this year I have been working slowly but surely on a series of paintings that I will be able to release in one hit as a collection. I have been holding 'my cards' closely for a few reasons, but I am glad to be sharing some snippets with you soon. There may be some visual references that are reminiscent of this work so thought it apt to share a #throwback . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #wip #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #artprint #gicleeprint #homedecor #homedecordesign

Day 6, Jan 21 #holidaysketch this ones unfinished but you get the idea! I’ve been a bit sea sick at night so sketching has been going slow. I do have a few more to upload in a sec... I have wifi for a few minutes and it’s my last chance before I’m on route back through the deep blue sea to Sydney . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #patterndesign #patternobserver #monochrome #mono

Day 4, 19 Jan #holidaysketch ❤️ this was done in the middle of Sydney & New Zealand, when I was feeling like I would never see land again LOL I don’t know if cruising is meant for me, I have never really been a great on planes but let’s just say I have a new found appreciation for flying 🤢🤪 . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #mono #monochrome

#sketch from last night just casually hanging out at the Sydney Opera House. Could spend all day here just admiring all the details from Jørn Utzon’s masterpiece that is the Opera House. . . . #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #wip #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #patterndesign #patternobserver #sketchbook #sketchaday
Pattern repeat ➖ I’ve been slack with the gram, but I’m at the airport waiting so I have a little time. Going to Sydney and then NZ, yay. Haven’t had a holiday for ever and hadn’t had this long away for 10years so looking forward to it. I’m starting a holiday #dailysketch project so I will be posting those every day. Can’t wait!
Painting details #wip 〰️ hope you’re having a good night x [any night with extra painting time is a good one for me ❤️] . . . #kelsosullivan #art #design #illustration #illo #modernart #painting #modernpainting #carveouttimeforart #contemporaryart #artinprogress #workinprogress #dsart #makearteveryday #artprocess #wallart #abstractart #abstractpainting #geometric #geo #sketch #conceptart #patterndesign #patternobserver #ihavethisthingwithpink
